    (Ep 214) Chiara Horder

    First of all thanks for the continued support as I took a month off to recuperate due to as you may know many personal battles with Mental Health.  I was pleased to be joined by The 120th R&A Women's Amateur Champion, 5x European Ladies' Amateur Team Championship participant & 2x Espirito Santo Trophy participant for Germany Chiara Horder who goes into her first year as a Professional on LET Access Series after a great amateur career after gaining status on tour after finishing 77th at Final Stage LET Q School in Morocco, managing to qualify for final stage after a 13th at pre qualifying at Palm Golf Ourika.  Chiara is from the City of München and still resides there just outside of the main city centre with lots to do including of course Allianz Arena not too far away the home of former champions of Europe FC Bayern München. Chiara would win 2019 German Matchplay Championship and would represent Germany at 2019 World Junior Girls' Championship in Canada. She would make the transition into university life in 2021 at Texas Tech University before going to Mississippi State University in 2023. Chiara's amateur career hs been littered with success competing 2 times for Germany at Espirito Santo Trophy in Abu Dhabi & Singapore, 5x European Ladies' Amateur Team Championships for Germany including winning in 2024 alongside Helen Briem & Celina Sattelkau at Real Sociedad Hípica Española Club de Campo and of course the biggest achievement of them all defeating Annabell Pancake 7&6 in the final of 2023 R&A World Amateur Championship to become World Amateur Champ at Princes which included a now infamous reaction after Chipping in off the green right after he caddy fellow player Charlotte Back called the shot before hand (check it out on Chiara"s IG).  With a venture into pro life with some preparation on Sunshine Ladies Tour in South Africa & 56th in the first event at Madaef Ladies Open on LETAS, there will lots to experience for sure for the talented German player. Thank you Chiara for your time, you done great, all the best for 2026. Be sure to download via Podbean, Apple & Spotify, also on YouTube.

    (Ep 213) Brittany Lincicome (2x Major Winner)

    It was a pleasure to be joined in this episode by 8x LPGA Tour winner including 2x Major Championships, 6x Solheim Cupper for USA & 2024 Solheim Cup Assistant Captain Brittany Lincicome as she took time to speak from Florida from a busy schedule as we discuss Solheim Cup, her fantastic career and more. Brittany nicknamed 'Bam Bam' is from Saint Petersburg in Florida but resides in Gulfport right next to the water and would take up the game at 9 and has been known for her length off the tee for a long time. She made her professional debut in 2005. In 2006 she would win World Matchplay Championship, 2007 would win Ginn Open, 2011 would see 2 victories at Shoprite LPGA Classic & Canadian Open and in back to back years in 2017 & 2018 would see Brittany win Bahamas Classic.   Nothing is in comparison though to winning Kraft Nabisco in 2009 & ANA Inspiration in 2015 both known now as Chevron Championship 1 of the 5 Major titles in Women's Golf! Brittany talks about the impact of winning 2 Major titles and getting the privilege to jump into Poppy's Pond twice! Brittany would also be only the 5th female player to play a PGA Tour event at 2018 Barbasol. Brittany has participated in 21 matches across 6 Solheim Cups for USA and managed 7 Wins, 12 Losses & 2 Halves winning the biennial trophy 4 out 6 times and would also be part of Stacy Lewis' assistance at 2024 Solheim Cup at Robert Trent Jones where USA were victorious!  Overall, Brittany has made over 400 LPGA starts, making 315 cuts while winning 8 times & 66 Top 10's in her established career. It was a great chat and I was her all the best in her semi retirement and going forward with opportunities outside of playing! Be sure to download via Podbean, Apple & Spotify, thanks everyone!

    (Ep 212) Jane Turner on Purple Day Epilepsy Awareness!

    In what is a special episode of the podcast released on 26th March it is Purple Day which is Worldwide Epilepsy Awareness Day I was really pleased to be joined by LETAS title winner & 2x Sunshine Ladies Tour winner Jane Turner on what is a really meaningful day for Jane and over 80,000 other Epilepsy sufferers in Scotland alone. We find out what Purple Day is and what it means to Jane while also finding out that a young girl from America who has the same condition is her idol and is competing as a golfer at U10 Under Armour Championships. Inspiring stuff!!   Jane is from Penicuik in Midlothian which is not far outside of the main city of Edinburgh and turned professional in 2013 after a successful junior/amateur career including winning British Universities Championship twice, Scottish Ladies Strokeplay Championship, R&A Bursars Ladies & representing Scotland Teams. In 2017 Jane would win Bossey Ladies Open on LET Access Series winning in a playoff then win twice on Sunshine Ladies Tour in South Africa in 2019 & 2020. Plying her trade between LET & LET Access Series as time went on Jane admitted that her Epilepsy caused a major setback in her career. In June 2025 Jane would undergo major brain surgery to successfully remove a brain tumour and is working extremely hard to get back ready to play Professional Golf again to make the start of a comeback story! I have my fingers crossed that Jane can get the chance to compete again on the Professional Tour. It was a pleasure to chat with her and I wish her all the best going forward, good luck!  I also commend Jane for her bravery in discussing a really emotional part of her life!

    Caddy Series Ep 10 (210, Jan Meierling)

    After a long time of trying we finally managed to get LPGA Tour major winning caddy and all round good guy Jan Meierling on the show for a chat!  A former pro himself Jan has had great success as a pro caddy and is going into his 6th season alongside 2024 KPMG PGA Championship winner Amy Yang who Jan & Amy have a fantastic relationship together on and off the course which makes one of the best combos on tour!  In 2024 at Sahalee Country Club for KPMG PGA Championship would be one the greatest achievements for Jan as he would help Amy navigate a very tricky golf course into winning a major championship in her 18th season as a pro player! A remarkable achievement! Thanks a lot Jan for taking time to come on I thoroughly enjoyed chatting with you and fingers cross that potentially could see a 3rd win together this year on LPGA Tour!  Download via Podbean, Apple & Spotify, thanks for the continued support!

    I was pleased to be joined on the podcast for the second time by Colin Ramsay after the release of his 2nd book A Belter of a Caddy which focuses on the late Edinburgh Jimmy who had a great career on tour caddying for the likes of Paul McGinley & Ian Poulter.
