Summary
Eddie has decided to finally go on honeymoon after his second wedding, so Iain and Andrew convene in very Olympic-weary fashion to try and dissect what was a superb men’s golf tournament at Le Golf National and then reminisce about a time when both of them would have had a chance of winning Olympic gold themselves. Or at least not coming last. They consider again the essence of competition without prize-money, discuss whether caddies should get medals and Iain reveals that he recently played golf with a legendary figure from the world of entertainment
