In this episode I am joined by the winner of the 2005 US Open championship, Michael Campbell.

"Cambo" as he is affectionately known, came through international qualifying at Walton Heath before going on to Pinehurst No.2 and winning one of golf's biggest prizes just two months later.

A man proud of his heritage and with a long held dream to play rugby for his nation.

But when was his greatest moment of self doubt?

What does he learn most from being a fan?

A fascinating insight into the mind of a champion.
