About this episode

In this episode, I'm joined by 1984 Olympic Gold Medal Figure Skater Scott Hamilton and LIV Golf's Chief Events Officer Ron Cross.

Scott details his lifelong battle with cancer that he learned started at birth. Scott stopped growing at 4 years old and doctor after doctor either couldn't figure out why or misdiagnosed him. At one point his parents were told he had 6 months to live following a misdiagnosis of a disease he didn't have. Throughout his life, he's battled testicular cancer and an ongoing brain tumor that continues to shrink and grow to this day. Hear about his battle with the disease while simultaneously reaching the summit of men's figure skating.
