NEW YORK, NY – GolfPass today announced nationally recognized golf instructor Eric Cogorno as the new co-host of School of Golf, the popular long-running instruction series, alongside Blair O’Neal.
Cogorno, who follows legendary instructor Martin Hall as School of Golf co-host after Hall retired in 2025 following 430 episodes of School of Golf, has built one of golf instruction’s most dynamic modern platforms by making high-level coaching clear, practical, and accessible to players everywhere. A lifelong golfer from Pennsylvania’s Lehigh Valley, Cogorno has blended years of hands-on teaching experience with a digital-first approach that has helped hundreds of thousands of golfers better understand – and improve – their games.
Beginning his golf teaching career in 2006, Cogorno launched his YouTube channel, Eric Cogorno Golf, in 2017, which now features nearly 400,000 subscribers and 120 million views. He was named to Golf Digest’s 2026-27 ‘50 Best Teachers in America’ list, as well as being named one of Golf Digest’s ‘Best Young Teachers in America’ in 2022-23.
“I am absolutely honored to be the new co-host of School of Golf alongside the wonderful Blair O’Neal,” said Cogorno. “Martin Hall, Blair and the entire team at GolfPass have built an incredible brand around School of Golfand I’m excited to get the chance to continue that legacy in the years to come. Martin Hall has been such an awesome influence on not only myself, but thousands of other golf coaches and millions of golfers. He leaves shoes that of course I will not be able to fill, but I’m humbled that he gave me his blessing to continue what he has built.”
“Eric’s ability to make great instruction comprehensible, engaging, and approachable has earned the trust of golfers of all levels,” said Kevin Schultz, Vice President, GolfPass. “His longstanding track record and genuine passion for helping players improve make him an outstanding addition to School of Golf and we’re thrilled to welcome Eric alongside Blair as the series begins its exciting next chapter.”
