Summary
Lots to talk about this week as Andrew, Iain and Eddie meander through sport, politics and protest in a delicate and sensitive way. Eddie clarifies his remarks about Rory McIlroy’s caddy choice and explains why he himself has decided to start afresh on that front as well as employing a new coach to build upon a four place improvement in the Race to Dubai Rankings. They praise a new major winner in the women’s game and Scottie Scheffler’s latest triumph while considering whether dull golf is good golf.
Yet they still have time to talk about the fortunes of Iain's local cricket club and Andrew suffering a cruel defeat at an airport.

| 1:10.6 | No, I'm fine. I'm creaking, actually, if I'm making from being part of the corrupt golf media. No, I'm fine. |
