Dreams, Drive, and a Dose of Delusion

What happens when elite ambition meets the pursuit of the perfect swing?

The Golfing CEO is a podcast about the relentless, often irrational drive required to lead in business—and golf. Hosted by Strivr CEO and U.S. Open hopeful Derek Belch, each episode features conversations with world-class leaders, athletes, and entrepreneurs who share a love for the game and a mindset built around bold goals, personal growth, and embracing the grind.

From Fortune 500 boardrooms to fairways, guests open up about:

The lessons golf has taught them about leadership

The setbacks that nearly broke them—and the shots that brought them back

What it takes to dream big, stay driven, and push past delusion

Whether you’re building a business, chasing a personal milestone, or just love a good underdog story, The Golfing CEO offers a refreshing, unfiltered look at the mentality behind greatness—on and off the course.

S2E14: Qualifying – Part 4 – “The SVP Caddie” (feat. Brian Neault)

The 2026 tournament season is winding down, with only a few opportunities left for Derek to make progress towards winning his bet with Carson. Luckily, one of those opportunities is just 45 minutes away and has become a staple on Derek’s tournament schedule… the local qualifier for the PGA TOUR’s annual World Wide Technology Championship.

Almost exactly a year ago, Derek’s “cousin-in-law”, Mike Kelly, caddied for him en-route to a not-so-great score of 82. This year, Derek is bringing in the best possible looper he knows… his actual cousin, and lifelong best friend, Brian Neault.

Today’s episode features the most on-course audio we’ve ever captured, as Derek and Brian attempt to advance through pre-qualifying and get one step closer to competing in a PGA TOUR event in Cabo San Lucas, Mexico.
