The dry humor of Henrik Stenson and brash talk of Ian Poulter can soon be heard on the radio.
Stenson, the No. 3 player in the world and the first to capture the FedEx Cup and Race to Dubai in the same season, will host his own show next year on SiriusXM. Also getting his own show on the PGA Tour Radio channel at SiriusXM is Poulter, the Ryder Cup stalwart who challenged Stenson for the European Tour money title that ended in Dubai.
Still to be determined are the launch dates and when the shows will air.
Stenson only looks like a stoic Swede. He has a witty outlook on life on tour, and once produced a European Tour video with a split camera in which he interviewed himself. He once pulled a prank on a fellow Swedish player by bursting through his balcony door at a hotel and feigning a hold-up. And until he won The Players Championship, he was best known for stripping to his white underwear to play a shot out of a water hazard at Doral.
His golf this year was astounding the second half of the season a pair of top 3s in the majors, wins at the Deutsche Bank Championship and Tour Championship to win the FedEx Cup, and then a win in Dubai to win Europe's money title.
