Episode Notes

Tom Irwin is at The Open, he is missing Steve but the excitement has got too much and he had to Pod. He has roped in Tour Editor Matt Chivers to join him for an eve of the Open bonus episode of the NCG Golf Podcast. They run through 6 things you will be sure to see this week:

  • An Open ruined at the 1st
  • A real challenge from the LIV players
  • Hyperbolic Americans.
  • Rory revelling in the attention
  • Ludicrous Irish crowds cheering on the home favourites.
  • The joyous cliché of Sky’s coverage.

Tune in, if only for the Alan Shipnuk /  Swilcan Bridge analogy.
