"It Was For The French Fries"
— Baggett On How His Golf Journey Began
Director of Golf and General Manager of Astor Creek Golf & Country Club in Port St. Lucie, Florida, TJ Baggett joins Q-Point Podcast to share the remarkable journey that took him from riding his bicycle to a local golf course in Virginia for french fries to pursuing a career in professional golf.
Baggett reflects on competing on mini tours across the country, Monday qualifying for what is now the Korn Ferry Tour, and the realities of chasing a professional golf career—including the financial challenges, long hours on the road, and the mental discipline required to compete at a high level.
The conversation explores what separates elite golfers from everyone else, the importance of confidence, why so few players ever reach the PGA Tour, and the significant costs involved in pursuing a professional career.
Baggett also shares his perspective on the PGA Tour and LIV Golf, Tiger Woods' impact on the game, and the experiences that took him from Virginia to golf operations and management roles in the Bahamas, Russia, Hawaii, California, and now Florida.
The discussion concludes with an inside look at Astor Creek Golf & Country Club, where Baggett discusses creating a member-focused experience, building community through events and activities, growing the game of golf, and why he believes the business is ultimately about serving people.
📻 Airs weekends on The Voice of Maine and WLOB Portland.
