On this week’s edition of the podcast we recap The Open Championship where Brian Harman put the field to the sword at a sodden Royal Liverpool. Try as they might, nobody could reel-in the unflappable American as the likes of Rahm, Rory and Fleetwood fell away on Sunday. We go down the leaderboard, picking out all the talking points, from how the Irish fared to where the results leave our Ryder Cup hopefuls. We also recap the rest of the action from around the world and identify our heroes and villains from the final men’s major of the year. As ever, we hope you enjoy the listen.

On this week's edition of the podcast we reflect on a landmark U.S. Women's Open as the best women golfers in the world strutted their stuff at the iconic Pebble Beach. Aine Donegan was the star of the show from an Irish perspective, the Lahinch amateur lapping up every minute as she delighted the Californian crowds for four rounds at Pebble. It wasn't to be for Leona Maguire despite the Cavan star's name looming large early in a week that ultimately belonged to one of the home contingent as Allisen Corpuz collected the title. We discuss what the event might mean for the women's game and round up the rest of the action elsewhere from a big week for Seamus Power at the John Deere Classic to a busy week on the domestic amateur scene. As ever, we hope you enjoy the listen.

On this week's edition of the podcast we look back on a great week for Irish golf as Leona Maguire and Stephanie Meadow challenged at Baltusrol, and Pádraig Harrington defended on the Champions Tour. At the KPMG Women's PGA Championship, Maguire threatened to go wire-to-wire once again before coming unstuck on Sunday. The Cavan star will no doubt learn from the experience and so too will Meadow who couldn't wipe the smile from her face after securing a podium finish and the biggest cheque of her career. Pádraig Harrington has nothing left to prove and yet still he surprises after a back-nine 28 saw the Dubliner defend the DICK's Sporting Goods Open. We discuss the merits of a Harrington Ryder Cup call-up and also recap a heap of golf elsewhere, including a great week for Douglas on the Irish amateur scene. As ever, we hope you enjoy the listen.

On this week’s edition of the podcast we were delighted to be joined by Leona Maguire fresh off her second LPGA Tour victory. After two runner-up finishes, it proved third time lucky at the Meijer Classic for Maguire who gears up for another Major opportunity at this week’s KPMG Women’s PGA Championship high on confidence. And speaking of Majors, we also look back on the men U.S. Open as Holywood’s Rory McIlroy fell short of the Hollywood ending he craved by a single stroke. It was Wyndham Clark’s week at LACC and we discuss the highlights, and the lowlights of the penultimate men’s Major of the year.

On this bonus edition of the podcast we were delighted to be joined by the latest star name out of Holywood GC, Tom McKibbin, fresh off his first DP World Tour win at the Porsche European Open. The 20-year old has grown up with Rory McIlroy comparisons ringing in his ears but in Germany last week, McKibbin proved he's very much his own man, running out a two-shot victor as a host of tour title winners chased him in vain. McKibbin talks about the influence of experienced caddie Dave McNeilly on his game, how getting over the line didn't feel all that different to his amateur days, and what's next as he reevaluates his goals with the second half of the season still to play.

On this week's edition of the podcast we react to the news that has rocked the world of sport, never mind golf, as the PGA and DP World Tours partner with the Public Investment Fund of Saudi Arabia. On Tuesday, golf's existing tours performed the mother of all U-turns and signed a deal that unites the warring factions under a new for profit entity, and while some people celebrate, others are left scratching their heads. We try to make sense of this new direction for golf, highlight the winners and losers, and take on the impossible task of predicting what's next, as if anybody knows!

On this week’s edition of the podcast we had another victory to celebrate as Liam Nolan claimed a famous win at the Brabazon Trophy. There was more Major action in America as Pádraig Harrington endured another near-miss at the hands of Steve Stricker at the U.S. Senior PGA. It was a similar story for Leona Maguire who settled for a share of third at the LPGA Match Play, a result that bodes well for a busy summer. And we look back at the Michael Block madness of the past two weeks, a story that highlighted the best and the worst in all of us. As ever, we hope you enjoy the listen.

Meanwhile, there was no such fairytale for the home contingent at Woodbrook where Lorna McCylmont captured the Flogas Women’s Amateur at Woodbrook despite a stout Beth Coulter challenge. There was ample joy for Roscommon’s Olivia Costello, however, as the teenage talent romped to the Girls prize. We also have heroes and villains, and we round-up all the action from elsewhere too, including a landmark week for Gary Murphy on the Legends Tour. As ever, we hope you enjoy the listen.
