The Chipping Forecast

Plenty to discuss this week and a slightly different trio to do so as Iain jets off for the USPGA, so Andrew and Eddie are joined by Chris Wood, whose return to form continued with a victory in Italy on the Hotel Planner Tour. The three talk about the dark times Woody has been through to get to where he is now as well as picking over Eddie's latest decent showing, with a top-20 in Spain that nevertheless led to clubs being either thrown or given away to children. There is also a debut PGA Tour win for Kristoffer Reitan to chat about while looking ahead to the second men's major at Aronimink.

With Andrew applying the finishing touches to his bumper colouring-in book, Eddie assumes the presenter’s seat buoyed by an encouraging return to action in Turkey. Iain (aka 'The Badger') is also happy with signs that show his golf isn’t quite as hapless as he feared. But the conversation is dominated by events on and off the course at the top of the game. They discuss a slow play penalty at the Turkish Open where there was a heartwarming winner, although we’re not sure whether it happened in Asia or Europe. Eddie and Iain also consider a dominant but dull win for Cameron Young and an equally emphatic win for Nelly Korda, while also getting into the possible demise of LIV Golf. They then round things off with Iain turning film critic and Eddie exclusively revealing that he doesn't know how to pack properly, or indeed stay around for a made cut.

This week Eddie is preparing for his return to Tour and joins late at night from Turkey as he, Andrew and Iain dissect a busy few days in golf. Alex Fitzpatrick has leaped on to the PGA Tour with his Zurich Classic pairs victory alongside brother Matt, who also plays golf. There is a discussion about the impressive nature of Nelly Korda's win at the Chevron and the less than impressive nature of it as a major. They also mull over the news that Lytham will return as an Open venue in a couple of years time, Jim Furyk will return as US Ryder Cup captain and Justin Rose has decided to start playing with clubs from a company that has never made clubs before.

You might think that the week after The Masters would be quiet by comparison, but the wonderful world of golf just keeps on giving. Andrew, Iain and Eddie convene to talk about Matt Fitzpatrick taking down Scottie Scheffler at Hilton Head, and wonder where the Sheffield man stands in the pantheon of English golfers. There is also a good deal of LIV discussion with the future of the tour uncertain, questioning of driving distance stats, a look ahed to the women's major season and most importantly, we discover which golfer is considered the craziest on tour.

It's time to wrap up the Masters and Rory McIlroy's epic defence, so who better to do that than his sun-cream buddy? Eddie joins Andrew and Iain to give his thoughts and we hear from the man himself in his late-night encounter with the nocturnal Badger. Eddie further questions LIV as suitable preparation for the test of The Masters and the trio all wonder if that might be the last great chance for Justin Rose.
