Eddie Pepperall and special guest Ian Carter.

0:34.3

Hello there, welcome to a very, very special edition of the chipping forecast, a super duper edition.

0:39.3

Not long after the final putt has gone down at Valhalla, just going down,

0:43.0

just catching the edge of the holes and a showfly to win. I think one of the most dramatic majors we've we've had in recent years. Ian, were you suitably excited and excitable in commentary?

0:49.5
