Preston Becker is a good golfer who still believes his best golf might still be in there somewhere.

He met Oliver at The Olympic Club, where the two became regular playing partners, trip organizers, game creators, and enthusiastic participants in the kind of golf where the group matters more than the game.

While Preston enjoys competing, he's most drawn to the social side of golf: the chemistry of a foursome, the rhythm of a great golf trip, and the stories that somehow get better every year. His general belief is that a great foursome beats a great round.

That perspective, paired with Oliver's more improvement-oriented approach, shapes many of the conversations on Weekday Golf.

Outside the podcast, Preston has a background in real estate investment and is a licensed psychotherapist in California. He also serves as Vice Chairman of the 2028 PGA Championship at The Olympic Club. He lives in San Francisco with his wife and three daughters.

Oliver Hsiang is a good, not great, golfer who feels like he's this close to playing his best golf.

He met Preston at The Olympic Club, where they became frequent playing partners and co-conspirators in golf trips, games, and the kind of rounds that are as much about the people as the golf.

A former member of the Harvard golf team, Oliver played competitive junior golf but lost his love for the game during college, and spent much of the following decade away from golf altogether.

When he returned, he found something different: not simply playing the game, but a much more meaningful appreciation of golf through the lens of friendship, camaraderie, and fun. He still cares (a lot) about game improvement, but that experience shapes how he approaches the game—and what he hopes to explore through Weekday Golf.

Outside of golf, Oliver has a background in technology, startups, and digital media. He lives in San Francisco with his wife and two sons.
