In-Depth Bio
Jay Delsing has lived the dream so many golfers imagine. Growing up on the public courses of St. Louis, Jay developed a fierce love of the game that carried him to UCLA, where he earned a degree in economics and was an All-American twice while competing on a full golf scholarship. In 1984, Jay earned his PGA Tour card, launching a professional career that spanned more than 25 years and saw him compete alongside some of golf’s greatest legends.
A Life Member of both the PGA Tour and PGA of America, Jay transitioned from player to broadcaster with the same energy he brought to competition. Today, he hosts the nationally syndicated radio show “Golf With Jay Delsing,” which airs in 50 markets on 64 affiliates. The show continues to expand its reach, drawing in an affluent, loyal audience and attracting major sponsors. Listeners tune in each week for insider access to golf’s biggest personalities, from PGA pros and coaches to celebrities, business leaders, and philanthropists.
Jay’s recently released memoir, “You Wouldn’t Believe Me If I Told You: An Unforgettable Memoir of Golf, Grit, and a Blue-Collar Kid on the PGA Tour,” takes readers behind the ropes for a candid, funny, and heartfelt look at the sport. The book offers a rare glimpse into the brotherhood of professional golf — the triumphs, the heartbreaks, and the moments of mentorship that shaped Jay’s life.
At the heart of Jay’s work is a passion for showing how golf mirrors life. He speaks frequently about the values the game instills: integrity, resilience, discipline, and respect. For Jay, calling a penalty on yourself isn’t just a rule — it’s a way of doing business and living authentically.
Jay also champions one of golf’s least-told stories: its philanthropic power. The game raises over $4 billion annually for charities — more than all other major sports combined — and Jay believes this is one of the sport’s greatest contributions to society.
Whether on the course, behind the microphone, or on stage, Jay Delsing inspires audiences to embrace the lessons of golf and use them to lead, connect, and succeed. Learn more at JayDelsingGolf.com
