Irish Golfer Podcast Match Play Media

On this week's edition of the podcast we discuss a disappointing showing from the Irish at the Amateur Championship in Ballyliffin and the prospect of an Irish win in Portmarnock at the Women's Amateur Championship this week.

Tom McKibbin's fine run of form continued with a top-6 finish at the KLM Open while there was drama in more ways than one at the Travelers Championship but it didn't stop Scottie Scheffler from rolling to another victory + Padraig Harrington's eighth Champions Tour victory

On this edition of the podcast, Sara Byrne dropped by to chat to Ronan about the Women's Amateur Championship this week a glorious final year in Miami and how she plans to bow out of amateur golf with a golden summer before entering the professional ranks.

On this week's sombre edition of the podcast, there's only one place to start after what happened on Sunday night. Why did McIlroy lose the US Open and where does he go from here? Box office Bryson is the real deal on the course and in the galleries. Anna Foster is the Irish women's champion as a glorious month of amateur golf in Ireland begins in Woodbrook and Ballyliffin.

We're back!

World Golf Hall of Fame inductee Padraig Harrington takes centre stage this week as the lads discuss his impact on Irish golf, the general esteem in which he's held and whether or not he's the greatest sportsman the country has ever produced.

We also break down another Scottie Scheffler victory, a calamitous collapse on the DP World/LET Tour, Gary Hurley's resurgence, the state of negotiations between the PGA Tour and the PIF and there are unanimous choices for hero and villain of the week.

On today's mini edition of the podcast, former Irish Close champion Quentin Carew of Castleknock Golf Club joins Ronan from the hotel lobby of the Radisson in Sligo ahead of the Flogas Irish Men's Amateur Open Championship. Carew brushed off some rust at the Munster Strokeplay and although he prefers parkland he is starting to love links golf and he hopes he can put it all together this week.

Joining Ronan on this weeks mini podcast is Roscommon golfer Allan Hill who previews the Flogas Men’s Irish Amateur Open and talks about his maiden senior win in France and how he manages a persistent wrist injury.
