The Chipping Forecast

It's our big US Open debrief where Andrew, Iain and Eddie pick over the bones of events at Shinnecock Hills, admiring the play of Wyndham Clark while not in any way admiring the supporters. Is this a problem according to geography or something more widespread?There's also discussion of a near miss for Lottie Woad on the LPGA Tour as we head into major number 3 in the women's game, Iain asks if former professionals should be allowed to return to the amateur game's biggest tournaments and Eddie is preparing for his return to the tour in Italy.Brought to you by: www.petermillar.co.ukAnd by: www.ping.comEmail: tcf@thechippingforecast.co.ukInstagram: @chippingforecast Hosted on Acast.

It’s US Open week and Andrew, Eddie and Iain convene to preview the third men’s major of the season. Andrew is missing because of the knock-on effects of Denis Shapovalov being unable to win in straight sets at Queens.There’s a review of the Canadian Open and the Curtis Cup, while Iain tells us (thankfully not) all about his match against Andrew and Eddie reveals just how much he has been practising in the past week. The answer may not entirely surprise you.Brought to you by: www.petermillar.co.ukAnd by: www.ping.comEmail us: tcf@thechippingforecast.co.ukInstagram: @chippingforecast Hosted on Acast.

An episode which is frankly too long, but you are of course free to split it in two, or stop listening whenever you have had enough. BUT, stick around if you want a slightly drunk Eddie after one glass of champagne to mark another top-ten finish, in Hainan, where he was steered around by an ever-smiling man called Tsen. That's as much as we know, really. Eddie gives the inside track on equipment changes and another impressive performance to take him into an enforced break as well as an enforced holiday until he can find a reasonable flight home. Or until he can get his bank card to work.Once Eddie has left / fallen asleep, Iain joins to chat about all the other golf taking place recently - Matt Fitzpatrick bouncing back to win on the PGA Tour, Bryson Dechambeau going head to head with Jon Rahm in a raucous LIV South Africa and Iain himself playing some mixed foursomes. There is also discussion of the DP World Tour brain drain and the possibility of a Ryder Cup without Rahm.

A bonus episode to bring news ahead of The Players Championship and at the end (for Eddie and Andy Murray at least) of the Sunningdale Foursomes.Eddie, Andrew and Iain discuss Brian Rolapp's ideas for the PGA Tour and Rory's back injury as well as Eddie's chances of a trip to China and a very honest interview from Gary Woodland on his psychological struggles.

HAIL THE CONQUERING HERO... except for the four players ahead of him whom he didn't quite conquer. It was a great weekend for Eddie though as he finished 5th in the South African Open and is still in Stellenbosch to give us all of the details, including a hot putter, an unplanned equipment change and a caddie who simply enjoys it all too much. There is also discussion of Shane Lowry's meltdown at the end of Cognizant Classic in Florida and his admirable post-round chat with the media. The three then talk about the layers which are now clearly forming in the professional game and find time to praise the talent in British Women's golf as well as Chris Wood on the MENA Tour. They then wonder if Andy Murray will lay on a private jet to get Eddie back in time for a practice round ahead of the Sunningdale Foursomes. If he doesn't, he's just not taking it seriously.Brought to you by: www.petermillar.co.ukVisit: www.ping.comEmail: tcf@thechippingforecast.co.ukInstagram: @chippingforecast Hosted on Acast.
