    Rust Never Sleeps

    Eddie, Iain and Andrew come together once again to discuss all manner of things in the crazy world of golf, not least Eddie's return to tour life which lasted only a couple of days in the Scottish Borders. There is also a review of The Wyndham Championship, Charley Hull's putting nightmare and a grim weekend for Project Badger.

    Play-offs, Pranks and Picks

    Andrew is still hunting for a wayward drive somewhere, so Iain and Eddie once again hold the fort and bid farewell to major golf for the year with a round-up of The AIG Women's Open. There's plenty of discussion of the dramatic finish as Esther Henseleit holed a monster putt to take it into a play-off, then saw a cruel human ricochet end her hopes with Shiho Kuwaki keeping the title in Japanese hands. There are reflections on the performances of Lottie Woad and Charley Hull, while offering thoughts on Charley's caddy prank, before both Eddie and Iain then realise they are in no position to…

    Jacksons, Majors and Apologies.

    With Andrew taking a break the two-ball of Eddie and Iain tackle all of golf’s biggest talking points: the state of Project Badger, the PGA Tour’s newest superstar and why the Korean winner of the women’s Scottish Open speaks with an Aussie accent. Iain gives his verdict on LIV Golf’s latest event and Eddie tries to guess who handed over the trophy at the Seniors Open. Eddie also expresses some regret about something. Hosted on Acast.

    DeChambeau Drama

    He might not lead The Open Championship at halfway but all the headlines at Birkdale are being made by Bryson DeChambeau, who finished his second round in second place but was then handed a two-shot penalty for improving his lie on the 5th hole. Andrew and Eddie discuss it all while Iain digs around for further news then joins the chat. Quite apart from all that, it was a day of extraordinary golf with 62s being handed in by leader Lucas Herbert and American Sam Burns. Even bigger names are not too far away with Scheffler, Cam Young and Tommy Fleetwood, but the question remains: Will Bryson…

    WEDNESDAY AT BIRKDALE

    It's Open Championship Eve and Andrew and Iain are separated by a few feet in the media centre, while Eddie is a couple of hundred miles away, but the three gather to have a final look ahead to this year's Open Championship. They discuss the course and the contenders while hearing from Scottie, Rory, Tommy and Justiny. Most importantly, they each pick their horse to lift the Claret Jug. If a horse could do that with its hooves. Not sponsored by EddieBets.

    101 Not Out

    Disclaimer - Eddie is still full of drugs. However, he is lucid enough to recall and review his performance at the Alfred Dunhill Links where he battled to make the cut but still slipped just outside the crucial top-100 in the rankings. Yet dramatic news reaches us that he has been offered a place in the Spanish Open this week. Just before packing he, Iain and Andrew are able to reflect on Adrian Meronk's win in St Andrews as well as a remarkable performance by Michael Stewart. They also discuss Tom Kim's military avoiding win at the Asian Games, talk a bit about daylight savings time and…

    Presidents, Pain Killers and The Ghost Ship of Golf.

    Three men in three countries and plenty of rambling this week as Andrew, Eddie and Iain convene to discuss events at the Presidents Cup, where the USA won by their now habitual method of storming the singles. They look back on the French Open where Matt Fitzpatrick continued his impressive year and Eddie gives us an update on his injury, preparing for one of his favourite events of the year as the clock ticks on his season. Andrew then decides to tell a story of intrigue, oil money and the SAS - all wrapped up in a golf course where nobody but Henrik Stenson occasionally plays. Episode…

    Spaun Doolicks and Manuel Labour

    A two-ball this week as Andrew is forced to miss the tee-time, so there is far less ramble and much more weighty chat from Eddie and Iain as they look back on a dramatic finish to the BMW PGA at Wentworth. JJ Spaun took the title and firmly made his point to Brandt Snedeker after omission from the USA side, while Manuel Elvira emphatically made the point that pressure can make you look like a bit of a tool in golf. Eddie is able to offer an update on his own golfing status as he battles a neck problem and also a problem with late-night tweeting while taking medical-grade painkillers, but…

    Solheim, Shane and Pain

    The trio gather this week in something of a torpor, induced either by long waking hours or by tranquilisers. There is an update on Eddie's withdrawal from the Irish Open and subsequent treatment, before the mood is lightened by reflections on Europe's victory in the Solheim Cup. There is also discussion of the two different sides of Shane Lowry on display as he romped to a record win at Doonbeg. To give some much needed energy to proceedings, Iain tells a story about a queue. Brought to you by: www.petermillar.co.uk And by: www.ping.com Chipping Forecast on Substack:…
