The Chipping Forecast Folding Pocket

Eddie returns with an explanation for his WD as his trip to Japan proved to be no more than a long way to go for some physio. The trio then discuss the incredible atmosphere / godawful behaviour (delete as appropriate) at LIV Adelaide as well as reflecting on a win for Rory McIlroy and Shane Lowry as they teamed up to take the title in New Orleans.
The trio then becomes a quartet as Dominic Holland joins to discuss his updated golf novel 'Open Links’ as well as his own love for the game which is shared by his many - and very famous - offspring. They also wonder if The Edge might listen to the podcast but just not admit it.

This week the trio are once more spread across the globe, although in Japan jet lag has broken Eddie to the point where he has wisely chosen sleep ahead of recording the podcast. So it’s left to Iain in Texas and Andrew - not in Texas - to discuss the two currently unstoppable figures of Nelly Korda and Scottie Scheffler, with the former winning her second major at the Chevron and the latter the delayed Heritage at Hilton Head. They also manage to find time to consider the pros and cons of carrying a bag vs using a trolley, while caddies come off very poorly in their review of club transportation. Although it’s not quite as negative as a certain podcast review. Come friendly bombs and fall on Derby...

The Masters is done and Scottie Scheffler gets to put on the green jacket again. All three of our podcasters convene - eventually, with Andrew having broken in to Iain’s Augusta rental house - to discuss the dominance of the World Number One. They mull over a final round, where all of his challengers faltered at various points - in the end TCF’s own Ludvig Oh-berry taking second place in his first major championship and Tommy Fleetwood one place further back for his best Masters finish.
There is still time to talk about Eddie’s decision to resume playing early and head to Japan - if he can get to London to pay £17 for a visa. And of course we look ahead to Iain’s next stop at the first women’s major of the season, the Chevron Championship in Texas. There is no time to mention any book discount codes. Although Iain still somehow manages it.

Iain rejoins Andrew as the pair ruminate on round three and what might unfold on Masters Sunday. Saturday saw Scottie Scheffler wobbling before recovering, Collin Morikawa returning to the form of old and Ludvig Åberg challenging on his major debut. Andrew jinxes any British player on the final hole, but we do hear from Tommy Fleetwood and Iain tells us of an exotic foodstuff he has discovered and wants to share it with the world. It’s not a Terry’s Chocolate Orange.

Eddie’s back to share his thoughts with Andrew as one of the longest and windiest days in Masters history finally draws to a close. Scottie Scheffler is again impressive, Rory is again frustrated and several debutants show that experience is overrated. Discount code on wind chimes available.

Round One of the Masters is almost done as some stormy weather meant not all golfers completed their rounds, however, Andrew and Iain convened at the hooter to dissect an intriguing day's play. We hear from former champion Danny Willett after his improbable -4 score having been out for 6 months and the BBC's John Murray makes a fleeting appearance too. And much to Iain's delight there's finally a discount code for TCF listeners for his book, it's out now, apparently.
