It's time now for the chipping forecast.

Sorry, just as I said that intro there, I leaned back on my chair and it's a bit of a squeak.

You know that? And that's unprofessional, but I can't be bothered starting again. So, hello, and to the squeaky chipping forecast. I'm Andrew Cotter, and we are joined as ever. Actually, not as ever. Sometimes it's not the case, but we're joined as we quite often are by super-dipper Eddie Pepperl. Hello, Eddie. Hello, hello there. You just waved and then remember that it was an audio thing.

You should say something. There wasn't a delay there, Eddie, waved instantly and then realized that we're not on screen.

And Ian Carter, our regular special guest, is looking smart casual in a players championship hoodie.

Yeah.

Okay.

How did you get that in?

I got that at Sawgrass, Eddie, in the merchandise tent.

Just after I'd seen, Colin Morikawa's ex-caddy, as he is now, make hole in one on the 17th as I was walking down.

Then I went into the merchandise tent, and the poor chap in front of me as I was holding my bag to pay for my players championship hoodie actually collapsed in front of me and it was a very scary situation

so actually the buying of this was an incident-packed occasion one way and another

hopefully it was okay yeah well hopefully but also you get one space ahead in the queue, so there's that as well. That's not, I would say that, again, I stress, I hope that he's absolutely okay. Yes, I'm sure he was. I was at Lorry Cantors at the weekend, and he brought back a great piece of merchandise that they sell at Augusta now, these gnomes. I don't think they were available when

I was there, but he had one that sat on his outside doorstep. It looked quite cool.

Do you know what a gnome outside your house signifies, though?

No. Tell me. Well, tell him, because it signifies that you're available for all sorts of

shenanigans. It's like having pampas grass. It does, honestly. Look it up. Don't ask me why I know this, but no, because... Why do you know this? No, because I did a, I've done a few little garden videos with the dogs and we got pampas grass here. It's a historical thing. Obviously, when we moved in, it was there. And someone's pointed out that that signifies that you're into swinging. And I said, I'm into swinging. I'm trying to get this left forearm across my chest on the way back. And they said, no, no, no, it means something else. And apparently having a garden gnome outside. So God knows what having a garden gnome sitting in some pampas grass means. That just means your utter filth.

Anyway.

Time to move on.

Anyway, so Laurie, I thought Laurie lived in Dubai now, or does he have many, many houses?

No, he's in Dubai this week, actually.

So, yeah, I think there's a few things going on personally for him and the
