Tea Time with Golfer, Cole Haase
In this episode of Sideline Sessions, host Lindsay and Cruz Cambre sits down with Cole Haase, a sophomore golfer at Loyola University, to share his powerful story of living and competing with a heart condition.
From undergoing open-heart surgery as a newborn, to his most recent aortic valve replacement in June 2025, Cole opens up about the challenges of balancing medical setbacks with his passion for golf. He reflects on the role of mental health, the weight of being a student-athlete, and how his family’s support carried him through. We also watch Lindsay learn more about golf; a sport she knows nearly NOTHING about.
The conversation is an honest look at resilience, positivity, and redefining toughness—reminding athletes and families alike that strength is as much mental and emotional as it is physical.
