Today on the podcast I welcome back "The Old Lady," Kristen, to the show to recap one of the more exciting major tournaments in recent memory: the 2017 Masters. Kristen -- who moonlights as my wife -- offers takes that only she can provide on everything from Sergio Garcia being a cry-baby to Jordan Spieth and Rickie Fowler not playing up to their caliber. We also briefly touch on Twitter's Secret Tour Pro and what she thinks about running an anonymous social media account.

Episode 102: Who is Twitter's Secret Tour Pro? (Part II)

Tonight I speak to one of the "Secret Four" writers who collaborated with Twitter's Secret Tour Pro. This is the next chapter in a very odd story.

It has been a crazy 24 hours at GU HQ as I have learned more than I could possibly have imagined about the man behind Twitter's Secret Tour Pro (@SecretTourPro). Within an hour of posting a now deleted post on this blog with what I thought I knew about STP, five people have come forward telling me the real story. Tonight, I talk to one of those people.

Please email me at adam@golfunfiltered.com if you know any additional information about the Secret Tour Pro and if you would like to appear on the show. I'd love to hear your story.

Listen to Part I of this series here.

In the year's final episode of the Golf Unfiltered Podcast, we begin the first of a two-part series detailing the mystery and intrigue that surrounds Twitter's Secret Tour Pro. Read our first exclusive email interview with STP here.

In Part I, we welcome the assistant of the STP to the show to give even more insight into his identity. Why did he start the Twitter account? Why all the anonymity? What are the benefits of going down this path, and what does STP hope to gain from this?

We discuss some of the tactics the STP has used to give clues to his Twitter followers and what the end game is when all is said and done. Does the STP want to be uncovered? Will there ever be a big reveal? Perhaps in Part II of this series...?

We even touch on a blockbuster equipment deal between Under Armour and another manufacturer that almost came true.

If you're a fan of the Secret Tour Pro and the mystery that surrounds him, this is an episode that you don't want to miss!
