    Family Fortunes

    This week Eddie is preparing for his return to Tour and joins late at night from Turkey as he, Andrew and Iain dissect a busy few days in golf. Alex Fitzpatrick has leaped on to the PGA Tour with his Zurich Classic pairs victory alongside brother Matt, who also plays golf. There is a discussion about the impressive nature of Nelly Korda's win at the Chevron and the less than impressive nature of it as a major. They also mull over the news that Lytham will return as an Open venue in a couple of years time, Jim Furyk will return as US Ryder Cup captain and Justin Rose has decided to start playing with clubs from a company that has never made clubs before.

    The Craziest Guy on Tour

    You might think that the week after The Masters would be quiet by comparison, but the wonderful world of golf just keeps on giving. Andrew, Iain and Eddie convene to talk about Matt Fitzpatrick taking down Scottie Scheffler at Hilton Head, and wonder where the Sheffield man stands in the pantheon of English golfers. There is also a good deal of LIV discussion with the future of the tour uncertain, questioning of driving distance stats, a look ahed to the women's major season and most importantly, we discover which golfer is considered the craziest on tour.

    Roreflections.

    It's time to wrap up the Masters and Rory McIlroy's epic defence, so who better to do that than his sun-cream buddy? Eddie joins Andrew and Iain to give his thoughts and we hear from the man himself in his late-night encounter with the nocturnal Badger. Eddie further questions LIV as suitable preparation for the test of The Masters and the trio all wonder if that might be the last great chance for Justin Rose.

    Masters SUNDAY - RORY REPEATS.
    He's only gone and done it again... Andrew and Iain are here with immediate reaction to Rory McIlroy becoming the Masters champion once more and claiming his sixth major title. We go through the dramatic final round where so many different people at various points dreamed of the Green Jacket. We hear from Rory himself as well as Justin Rose on another near miss at Augusta and Tyrell Hatton who also came close before the Dublin 46A bus finally arrived.

    Masters SATURDAY - All To Play For.
    As we (ok, some of us) predicted, it was never going to be a runaway win for Rory McIlroy at this year's Masters and heading into the final round several of the game's biggest names now have a chance to put on the jacket. Andrew and Iain join up at the end of round three to discuss Rory's struggles, the rise of Cam Young, the return of Scottie Scheffler and the dream that will not die for Justin Rose. We hear from McIlroy, Rose and Shane Lowry after his hole-in-one and look forward to what might be one of the greatest ever final rounds at Augusta.

    Masters FRIDAY - Rory Romping
    What a story developing at The Masters as Rory McIlroy opens the largest ever lead after 36 holes (confirmed by actual people). So exciting is it, that Eddie decides to fight off the warm, welcoming arms of Morpheus to join Andrew and discuss matters, with Iain joining after his commentary duties. That will do for a description. It's all in the pod...

    Masters THURSDAY - The Defence Rests
    The Masters is underway and we're now wondering if Rory can follow Jack, Nick and Tiger in keeping hold of the Green Jacket. Andrew and Iain come together with a short recap of the first round where not only did Rory impress, but so many big names are off to good starts, including World Number One Scottie Scheffler. Meanwhile as predicted by both Andrew and Iain, Jose-Maria Olazabal took Aldrich Potgeiter to short-game school. And then beat him up in the playground and stole his lunch.

    Faldo's Free Hat.

    Masters week is here and Andrew and Iain are there. Eddie's not in Augusta, but he joins from Pepperell Towers to look ahead to what is always one of the greatest weeks in golf. The three of them cast their keen eyes over the main contenders, while also looking back at events of the weekend, as JJ Spaun once more denied Bob McIntyre, while Matt Wallace went close. Iain also tells us how a multiple major champion ruined his Chinese takeaway, Andrew recounts a day of pointless flights and Eddie announces that he is going to try practising at golf.

    History Repeating

    This week our three-ball get together and chat about a significant win on the DP World Tour where Alex Fitzpatrick survived the madness of DLF to complete a Fitz family double, while Gary Woodland was an emotional winner on the PGA Tour.


    There is also plenty of discussion of another troubling incident for Tiger Woods, Iain talks about his tumbling handicap, Eddie takes a trip around a storm-lashed East Lothian and Andrew quotes Hull's most famous librarian.

    Not Tsen Percent

    An episode which is frankly too long, but you are of course free to split it in two, or stop listening whenever you have had enough. BUT, stick around if you want a slightly drunk Eddie after one glass of champagne to mark another top-ten finish, in Hainan, where he was steered around by an ever-smiling man called Tsen. That's as much as we know, really. Eddie gives the inside track on equipment changes and another impressive performance to take him into an enforced break as well as an enforced holiday until he can find a reasonable flight home. Or until he can get his bank card to work.

    Once Eddie has left / fallen asleep, Iain joins to chat about all the other golf taking place recently - Matt Fitzpatrick bouncing back to win on the PGA Tour, Bryson Dechambeau going head to head with Jon Rahm in a raucous LIV South Africa and Iain himself playing some mixed foursomes. There is also discussion of the DP World Tour brain drain and the possibility of a Ryder Cup without Rahm. Tsen-sational.
