Increase your productivity by 400 PER CENT by listening to this week’s episode, where Eddie recounts weekend woes in France and appalling aeroplane etiquette. The trio go on to try and explain why the appearance of anchoring in a putting stroke might not really be anchoring. There is further criticism of the handicap system as it is now and of those many golfers who abuse it - on which note there is quite the revelation from Iain. But his name is dying out, so we cut him some slack. And if all that’s not enough for you, Andrew talks about motivation in business and bored, drunk wasps.

It’s a Dunhill Links debrief this week and while Andrew and Iain skirt delicately around the issue, Eddie is quite happy to talk about life before and after the 16th hole at Kingsbarns. They also discuss Tyrell Hatton’s win - taking a huge cheque from the DP World Tour which would cover his DP World Tour fines if he should ever decide to pay them. They get into the revival of Nicolas Colsaerts, as well as wondering about poor on-course behaviour and what possible mitigation there might be. Yet there is still time for more musings on the future of the professional game, clarification on which Open course is closest to the sea and an explanation for being half-naked in Bernhard Langer’s hotel room.

This week Eddie reflects on his demi-tournament in Spain and reveals the reason why his missed cut was particularly hard to take (yet vital to restore flagging energy). The three also look back at the Presidents Cup and wonder if it needs a change in format, while asking how short does a putt have to be before it is a gimmie? They also look ahead to the Dunhill Links this week and try to uncover the mysteries of how the amateurs are paired with the professionals, while Iain confesses that his driving distance stats recently suffered a major set-back. Pod description written by Jazz Colchester III. Not a robot.

An episode recorded in the immediate afterglow of a fine tournament for Eddie, finishing just outside the top-10 at the BMW PGA Championship at Wentworth and ensuring that his dogs will eat tonight. Iain and Andrew have recovered from the emotional wringer that any follower of Eddie is put through and they wonder what is the correct way to show your support for golfers who are, by and large, unhinged. They also find praise for Rory McIlroy after another near miss, wonder exactly why Billy Horschel isn’t on The American Presidents Cup team and have an encounter with a man who seems determined to ensure that the name Gary survives for years to come.

Our intrepid trio return to look back at another thrilling Solheim Cup and a potential rift within Team Europe with Iain out in Virginia USA. They talk about Rory McIlroy not quite getting over the line, again, in the Irish Open and Jon Rahm's chances of playing in the Ryder Cup next year. There's also time to relive Andrew's Speedgolf exploits, go on an AC/DC tangent, discuss golf gadgets and find out about Eddie playing the Irish Open Pro-Am with the inventor of the Yorkie bar.

An early morning recording as Iain has to get to Farnborough airport where his PJ is on stand-by to take him to Washington DC for the Solheim Cup.

All three look ahead to that match and look back at another tournament of highs and lows cancelling each other out for Eddie in Switzerland.

They also discuss whether they care about a match between PGA Tour and LIV players, or The Presidents Cup. Spoiler alert - they don’t. Backstage passes and naked snails also feature.

This week, three-quarters of one of the least successful pro-am teams in the history of golf gather to reflect on where it all went wrong at the Belfry - an episode from which only Iain has emerged with any credit. The British Masters itself also earns plenty of praise, despite the non-attendance of most of the big British names. Best event of the week award goes to the Curtis Cup where the excitement was in stark contrast to what one of our listeners describes as the 'money-orientated crapness’ of the Tour Championship and Scottie Scheffler lifting his on course earnings to somewhere approaching the GDP of Liechtenstein.

The same correspondent then asks the question ‘Do Eddie and Andrew even like golf?’ the answer to which is contained within this pod...

This week Eddie rejoins to tell us about the highs and lows of his time in Denmark, where he made more birdies than anybody else in the field and managed to get his nice new clothing on TV but still returned home frustrated and without part of his luggage.

Andrew and Iain try to get into his mind and then decide it’s probably best not to go there, so chat instead about the finish to the Women’s Open where Lydia Ko got back to major winning ways in the battle of the world number ones.

They also preview the Curtis Cup, debate whether Keegan Bradley should be a playing captain in the Ryder Cup, wonder if Scottie Scheffler has any spare money to sponsor the pod and - most importantly of all - prepare themselves psychologically for the horrors of the pro-am at the British Masters.

Andrew and Iain are at the Old Course in St Andrews for the 48th Women's Open. We hear from last year's winner Lilia Vu and the runner-up Charley Hull, as well as local hero Gemma Dryburgh and the current Solheim Cup captain for the USA and 2013 Women's Open winner Stacey Lewis.

You can watch the world feed of the Women's Open at R&A TV Thursday to Sunday. Tickets are still available through the website and Tom Grennan is playing a concert on the Saturday.

Quite a long episode as all three come together again - although ninety-three percent of this episode is taken up by Iain telling us how he made a bogey on a par-5. Squeezed into the remaining few minutes are chats about Eddie’s return to the tour, commentary puns, possible new LIV targets, rules of Danish spelling and a brief mention of various people who must really, really like wedding cake.
