A massive pod today for two reasons. Firstly, we welcome a new partner on board - BMW, who have a long and proud history with golf, and we're rapt to be partnering with them on Talk Birdie To Me. BMW provides you with the luxury and comfort you need after a day on the course.

Secondly we have a very exciting guest today, the man Nick O'Hern named as the most famous caddy in history in last weeks Top 5, Steve Williams. Steve's pedigree needs little introduction, he has caddied for some of the biggest names in golf and achieved enormous success. Today's chat is fascinating, wide-ranging and transparent.

Steve talks about many things:

• The importance of a personal relationship with the player and why the tone and approach is different with each player.
• What were the key differences between caddying for Tiger Woods compared to Greg Norman.
• Why the second major win is the most difficult, and why the 16th hole at Medina was the moment that his and Tigers relationship changed forever.
• The one characteristic all caddies must have to be successful, and the one part of their game that all great players are brilliant at.
• Why he took the job with Adam Scott.
• Why he sometimes would give Tiger incorrect yardage information in tournaments on purpose.
• And why Greg and Tiger always wanted to be last onto the tee.

And much more. A fascinating chat with a guy who has had a front row seat to some of golfs biggest moments.
