Summary
It’s good to talk, as they say. With that in mind Andrew and Iain invite Eddie to share his thoughts on all that went on during an extraordinary week at Q-School in Spain and where it leaves him now and going forward. And they wonder whether he will ever be reunited with one of his most important clubs.
In this extra-long pod, to try and make amends for not delivering an episode last week, the trio go on to discuss Rory McIlroy’s consistent excellence, Tyrell Hatton’s consistent petulance and Carlota Ciganda’s consistent intransigence.
There are further thoughts on Nelly Korda, induced labour, Andy Murray’s golf swing and what the name is for the gadget-thing that tells you stuff.

Good luck to them all. Anyway, Ian Carter, sorry, before we get into the obvious main event of Q-School, Ian, how are you? I'm all right, thank you. You said clearing his throat there.
