Hank Haney Golf Radio first debuted on SiriusXM in
January of 2014, airing every Saturday and Sunday. The program
showcases Haney's proven teaching philosophy, which is to help his
students become their own best teacher by better understanding the
flight of the ball and how it relates to their individual
swing. Listeners at all skill levels regularly can call in to
the show and speak directly with Haney and other top instructors
from the Hank Haney Golf Schools for tutoring and advice.
"Having dedicated the last 35 years of my career to helping
golfers one student at a time, I am excited that SiriusXM has given
me a platform to reach millions of golfers each week," said
Haney. "The callers and listeners make every show different,
and we are not afraid to cover any topic that interests people who
love the game."
"Hank is an extraordinary teacher and, since his debut on
SiriusXM, he has also proven himself to be an outstanding radio
host," said Scott Greenstein,
SiriusXM's President and Chief Content Officer. "His insight
into the golf world and life on tour, and his ability to connect
with his audience and help people improve their games, make his
show a must listen for golf fans. We're very pleased to have
Hank on our airwaves for the years ahead, and we're especially
excited to now offer Hank Haney Golf Radio to our listeners
every day of the week."
Haney is president of Hank Haney Golf Inc., which owns and
operates five golf facilities in Texas. While he is best
known for coaching Tiger Woods from 2004 to 2010, a span in which
Woods won six major titles and was ranked #1 in the world, Haney
has instructed over 200 touring professionals from the PGA TOUR,
LPGA, Champions Tour, as well as the European, Japan, Australian and Asian Tours. His
students have won every major championship in professional golf, as
well as the most significant events in amateur and junior golf.
Haney has been recognized as one of the country's top teaching
professionals by Golf Digest and Golf. He has
authored four books on golf instruction, produced 14 instructional
golf DVDs, written over 300 instructional articles over the years
and has appeared on the cover of Golf Digest magazine six
times. For six seasons, he hosted the popular Golf Channel
reality show, The Haney Project, which featured Haney
