James Morrison | Resilience, Grit & Tour Life
Tuesday, 9 December, 2025
In this episode, Q sits down with DP World Tour veteran James Morrison, who quite literally joins us moments after stepping off the famous fairways of Royal Melbourne. Still carrying a bit of Sandbelt dust on his shoes, James gives us an immediate feel for how the course is playing ahead of a massive week in Australian golf. We dive into James’ uniquely Aussie story — from marrying an Australian, to playing Pennant for Waverley, to why he keeps coming back Down Under. From there, he walks us through his remarkable sporting background: a former gun junior cricketer who jumped from an 18-handicap to scratch in just 12 months, forging the work ethic that still drives him today. James opens up on the highs and lows of tour life, including the brutal moments where he nearly quit the game, losing his card for the first time since 2009, and the mindset shift that sparked his resurgence — capped by his return to the DP World Tour via the HotelPlanner Tour. It’s an honest look at confidence, identity, family, and rediscovering why you play. We also get into some brilliant tour stories: practice rounds with Phil Mickelson, walking the Old Course with Tom Watson, first-major memories, and the best ball-strikers he’s ever witnessed up close. Plus, a rare behind-the-scenes look at the business of being a pro golfer — travel, scheduling, budgeting, family life, and the grind fans never see. We wrap with a rapid-fire segment before wishing James luck for the week ahead at Royal Melbourne. This is one of the most open, insightful, and entertaining chats we’ve had — a perfect blend of golf heart, honesty, and world-tour wisdom.
