Dan Rapaport has announced he is joining Barstool Sports and will be joining the Fore Play podcast.
Rapaport made the announcement on his Twitter account, citing that he didn’t tweet the entire weekend in a build-up to the news. Rapaport comes to Barstool after being a staff writer for Golf Digest.
Rapaport said in a blog that he would be “a full-time member of the Fore Play brand—podcasts, videos, merchandise, events” and that he is looking forward to the “creative freedom Barstool offers”.
The journalist also stated that he still intends on working as a serious writer and interviewer despite what some people may worry about. “I’ll still have my boots on the ground in professional golf,” said Rapaport. “I’ll still develop and work my sources to break news. I’ll still provide wall-to-wall coverage of the biggest tournaments in the world. I’ll still chase compelling stories and see where they take me”.
