My name is Walker Polivka and I am the founder of Birdies and Burnouts. I’ve been a life-long fan of golf and NASCAR and have always wanted to find a creative way to channel my passion for both sports. Many sites created by fans don’t always have the same impact that a professional site would, but this site will be the exception.
I am a former radio broadcaster, having worked for multiple stations in a variety of areas, including production, guest booking, news writing, reporting, social media and website maintenance, marketing and media sales, as well as an on-air personality and as a General Manager, among many other areas.
This site will be your one-stop shop for all of your golf tournament and NASCAR race predictions, a place where you can read interviews with key newsmakers in both sports that cover the entire gambit of that person’s career, as well as a place to see the action up close and personal as we continue to develop our on-site coverage. My talented staff of writers are as equally dedicated to providing you with fair and accurate coverage and they also live and breathe the passion that I have for the sports.
This site will always be growing and experimenting with new topics and areas of coverage, so feel free to reach out with suggestions for content you’d like to see.
You can reach out to us directly by email at birdiesandburnouts@gmail.com and by following Birdies and Burnouts on Facebook and X.
Don’t forget to enjoy the long drive and to embrace the race to the checkered flag!
