    Play Better

    This week Andrew, Eddie and Iain talk Tyrell again as Hatton wins in Dubai and once more shows that he is both brilliant and belligerent on the golf course. Eddie would love to be either of those things, but getting invitations into forthcoming events is proving difficult. This leads to a discussion about who gets priority in terms of entries into tournaments - with the answer demonstrating exactly where the power lies in the game now. Although Eddie freely admits that the way around all such issues is simply to play better. The three also have a chat about friend of the pod Laurie Canter and his rise up the rankings, they continue to wonder what the point of TGL is, discuss the tiny country producing great talents and receive new information about the top golf course sledging destinations.

    Sledging at Amen Corner

    The Chipping Forecast is 100 episodes old and our intrepid trio celebrate by mulling over the most important issues in the game of golf - will TGL succeed? Why is Tom McKibbin heading to LIV? If it snowed at Augusta how far could you make it down the 10th fairway on a sledge? We also wonder if Eddie has started his hypnotherapy yet and when he might hear about his next tournament. And Prince William is revealed to be an avid listener. Possibly. EXCLUSIVE NordVPN Deal ➼ https://nordvpn.com/chipping - Try it risk-free now with a 30-day money-back guarantee!

    Biggler than McIlroy

    EXCLUSIVE NordVPN Deal ➼ https://nordvpn.com/chipping - Try it risk-free now with a 30-day money-back guarantee! The Chipping Forecast returns after a Festive Season break and our three-ball throw themselves into their new year of golf with all the enthusiasm of people who are suffering intensely from the January blues. One of the main topics of discussion is Barry Hearn’s claims for how big darts can be, as well as his opinion that Luke Littler can have a similar effect to Tiger Woods and his general wonderment at the money in golf when he feels that nobody’s really watching it. Andrew then makes an equally bold claim about Luke Littler without much evidence to back it up. The three go on to discuss TGL, Hideki going low in Kapalua, the positive side of golfing YouTubers and Eddie’s hopes for a good response on tournament invitations. And the podcast also retires undefeated from the awards game. This episode is sponsored by Disney Plus. We've been nominated for Best Golf Podcast at the Sports Podcast Awards.

    The Show Must Go On

    EXCLUSIVE NordVPN Deal ➼ https://nordvpn.com/chipping - Try it risk-free now with a 30-day money-back guarantee! A much-anticipated episode as Eddie returns from Mauritius where, Icarus-like, he flew too close to the sun and fell. But unlike Icarus he was at least given 28,000 Euros for his 9th-place finish rather than drowning in the sea. We hear the inside story on the whole week and why he thinks he’ll be better for it and why he also thinks it was more emotionally draining for Top Ten Jen. Also on the pod Eddie has a bold prediction for Charlie Woods, the verdict is in on 'The Showdown’ which is not entirely positive and the trio pick their favourite moments from 2025. Have a Shakin’ Stevens Christmas and see you in 2025. We've been nominated for Best Golf Podcast at the Sports Podcast Awards.

    Bernhard Langer and The Wurzels

    EXCLUSIVE NordVPN Deal ➼ https://nordvpn.com/chipping - Try it risk-free now with a 30-day money-back guarantee! This week Eddie is expanding his travel horizons and joins late-night from Mauritius to talk us through his twelve shot difference between rounds in South Africa. He also shares how important it is to have a loved one on the bag when things are going wrong. And also how important it is to have shoes that don’t melt. Less importantly, Iain appears to be hitting a rich vein of golfing consistency, while Andrew's golf is equally consistent as he still isn’t able to play at all. Also discussed this week is mixed golf, LIV golf and golf at the extremes of the UK. As well as 1970s novelty chart acts and whether Andrew can overcome his mild agoraphobia to go to a concert this weekend You can email the pod at thechippingforecast@foldingpocket.co.uk We've been nominated for Best Golf Podcast at the Sports Podcast Awards.

    My Caddy Doesn’t Like Golf

    This week our trio pan both hemispheres as Andrew and Iain brave the cold of the UK andEddie is in baking South Africa ahead of the Alfred Dunhill Championship at Leopard Creek Country Club. They discuss Adrián Otaegui's switch from Spain to the UAE and whether or not he can still appear in the Ryder Cup for Europe, and, Eddie reveals we may all get a sighting of the lesser spotted Pepperell in shorts on the course this week. As all of this is going on Eddie, the self-confessed storm lover, is stranded in his lodge and misses out on a spectacular thunder and lightning show as Andrew and Iain debate whether or not fatherhood will enhance Justin Thomas' upcoming season. Eddie also tells of an unlikely but welcome money-saving scheme that could bring good fortune over the next two weeks.

    Bad Impressions

    The trio set a record this week for the amount of time it takes them to get round to talking about actual golf, but once there, they go into some detail on The Australian Open and its champion Ryggs Johnston. They also have an update on Eddie’s playing schedule, Andrew’s health and the weekend performance of ‘The Closer’. They also each manage to attempt some reasonably inaccurate accents and wonder if they can apply for the job of commissioner of the PGA Tour.

    Smylie’s People

    This week, Andrew shows all the ill-effects of a man who spent the weekend hunting down receipts for toner cartridges, so Eddie introduces an episode in which they talk about possible Friend of the Pod Elvis Smylie winning the Australian PGA and, more importantly, hear from the man himself. They also recap a storming finish on the LPGA Tour, as well as a winner on the PGA Tour who comes from a family named after cars. Meanwhile each member of the trio is asked to offer their worst display of temper on a golf course. This episode can be considered a business expense for tax purposes.
