Summary
Round One of the Masters is almost done as some stormy weather meant not all golfers completed their rounds, however, Andrew and Iain convened at the hooter to dissect an intriguing day's play. We hear from former champion Danny Willett after his improbable -4 score having been out for 6 months and the BBC's John Murray makes a fleeting appearance too. And much to Iain's delight there's finally a discount code for TCF listeners for his book, it's out now, apparently.

| 0:03.6 | It's time now for the chipping forecast, issued by Folding Pocket on behalf of Andrew |
| 0:15.7 | Cotter, Eddie Pepperall and special guest Ian Carter. |
| 0:39.0 | Well, hello and welcome to our first master's proper Chippalata, i.e. after the first round, actually not after the first round, after the first day. And what a day it has been? I'm Andrew Cotter and with Ian Carter, who's here as BBC radio correspondent, |
| 0:45.8 | but also as a stout member of the chipping forecast team. He is here and he's just finished |
| 0:51.5 | commentating and we are going to round up the first day at Augusta. Again, what a day it's been. Ian, I think first of all, we should say that the weather was not as bad as forecast. It was very, very interesting. We got lots of play, lots of sunshine, lots of wind. Windiest conditions I can remember for a long time in the Masters, but actually a great day's golf. A great day's golf, a brilliant setup of |
| 1:11.5 | the golf course and a real bonus that we got as much golf as we did. And looking at the |
| 1:17.9 | resumption that is going to happen on Friday, those still out on the golf course are going to be |
| 1:22.6 | there at 10 to 8 in the morning and they'll get done. The second round is starting at 8 o'clock in the morning |
| 1:29.5 | and that means that will be back on schedule by Saturday. It's going to be windy again on |
| 1:36.1 | Friday as well. But this was a real, real test. We saw some fantastic golf. The early starters |
| 1:41.6 | had the best of the weather. Some great stories in there. |
| 1:46.0 | Fantastic leaderboard. |
| 1:47.0 | Bryson DeCombo at the top. |
| 1:49.0 | He brings a story. |
| 1:50.0 | Scotty Sheffler, one shot behind after his 66, so effortless in making that 66. |
| 1:56.0 | For me, the story of the day was Danny Willett. |
| 1:58.0 | First things first, big thanks to you. |
| 2:00.0 | We'll hear from him. We put a little clip of the day was Danny Willett. First things first, big thanks to you. We'll hear from him. We put a little clip of the interview on our coverage on five sports extra as well. Did you? We did. We did. And Mark Chapman didn't credit the chipping forecast. So words will be had over dinner tonight. Well, that's because, do you know why that is? But you got a name credit, so that was okay. Well, no, that's because he and Gabby, the Gabster, Gabby Logan, they've |
| 2:23.0 | got a rival podcast. And this week, because so many people are listening to the chipping forecast, |
| 2:27.9 | because ears are on golf, interest is on golf, and it's pushing up there. It's threatening |
| 2:33.0 | to knock them off their approach or certainly to the top of it. Well, it's pushing up there. It's threatening to knock them off their |
