Joy Green shares what it was like working inside a startup television network before it became The Golf Channel—and the unexpected moments that surrounded the early days of Tiger Woods.

Joy Green takes us inside a moment in golf history that most people never saw—the early days of The Golf Channel before it became what it is today.

From walking into a completely unstructured startup environment to witnessing the habits of a young Tiger Woods before the world knew his name, Joy’s story gives a rare, behind-the-scenes look at how both a network and a legend were taking shape at the same time.

This conversation isn’t about polished success—it’s about uncertainty, figuring things out in real time, and being close enough to something special before anyone realized what it would become.

If you’ve ever wondered what it actually looked like behind the curtain in those early days, this episode delivers.
