Pods come thick and fast as Eddie joins Andrew to chat about the recent USPGA and much else besides. Eddie gives his thoughts on the two sides of Bryson DeChambeau and wonders how many more majors Xander Schauffele might now win. There is excitement about Eddie’s burgeoning career as a golf tipping guru, but most of all he's excited to be getting back out into the swing of regular tour golf - admitting to just how little real golf he has played of late. And to how much chocolate he has eaten in his young life.

It’s the start of PGA week, although not the very start since Iain was flying on Monday and Eddie was taking advantage of a very generous offer of golf at Walton Heath at a perfectly respectable tee-time. So it is a slightly delayed pod which the trio make up for by wondering if Rory McIlroy’s victory at Quail Hollow installs him as favourite for the second men’s major of the year. Or will Koepka bring his big-stage game to the fore again? And will Scheffler be rusty after giving his first-born two surnames?
The trio also go into the history of the US PGA and the many honours of an often-forgotten British great of the game. Meanwhile lots of people tell us that their golf club does very good coffee, about which Eddie remains very sceptical indeed.
And we are happy to offer a correction here, that Graham Carruthers scored 113 at Clitheroe. Not 116.

Caffeine intake is high for an early morning recording as Iain has to get away sharpish in his bid to take down one of the Alphas of the club. In this episode the trio pay tribute to Peter Oosterhuis and then try to answer some of the pressing questions in the game, such as:
Could golf benefit from the return of a third round cut?
Will Kris Kim get his handicap cut after his efforts on the PGA Tour?
How is Kenneth Kendall connected to golf?
Is Brooks Koepka now the favourite for the PGA?
What sort of name is Crew? Or Fennel?
Why do they not remember Eddie at Walton Heath?
Warning: episode contains distressing chat about Clarkson’s Farm.

Eddie returns with an explanation for his WD as his trip to Japan proved to be no more than a long way to go for some physio. The trio then discuss the incredible atmosphere / godawful behaviour (delete as appropriate) at LIV Adelaide as well as reflecting on a win for Rory McIlroy and Shane Lowry as they teamed up to take the title in New Orleans.
The trio then becomes a quartet as Dominic Holland joins to discuss his updated golf novel 'Open Links’ as well as his own love for the game which is shared by his many - and very famous - offspring. They also wonder if The Edge might listen to the podcast but just not admit it.

This week the trio are once more spread across the globe, although in Japan jet lag has broken Eddie to the point where he has wisely chosen sleep ahead of recording the podcast. So it’s left to Iain in Texas and Andrew - not in Texas - to discuss the two currently unstoppable figures of Nelly Korda and Scottie Scheffler, with the former winning her second major at the Chevron and the latter the delayed Heritage at Hilton Head. They also manage to find time to consider the pros and cons of carrying a bag vs using a trolley, while caddies come off very poorly in their review of club transportation. Although it’s not quite as negative as a certain podcast review. Come friendly bombs and fall on Derby...

The Masters is done and Scottie Scheffler gets to put on the green jacket again. All three of our podcasters convene - eventually, with Andrew having broken in to Iain’s Augusta rental house - to discuss the dominance of the World Number One. They mull over a final round, where all of his challengers faltered at various points - in the end TCF’s own Ludvig Oh-berry taking second place in his first major championship and Tommy Fleetwood one place further back for his best Masters finish.
There is still time to talk about Eddie’s decision to resume playing early and head to Japan - if he can get to London to pay £17 for a visa. And of course we look ahead to Iain’s next stop at the first women’s major of the season, the Chevron Championship in Texas. There is no time to mention any book discount codes. Although Iain still somehow manages it.

Iain rejoins Andrew as the pair ruminate on round three and what might unfold on Masters Sunday. Saturday saw Scottie Scheffler wobbling before recovering, Collin Morikawa returning to the form of old and Ludvig Åberg challenging on his major debut. Andrew jinxes any British player on the final hole, but we do hear from Tommy Fleetwood and Iain tells us of an exotic foodstuff he has discovered and wants to share it with the world. It’s not a Terry’s Chocolate Orange.

Eddie’s back to share his thoughts with Andrew as one of the longest and windiest days in Masters history finally draws to a close. Scottie Scheffler is again impressive, Rory is again frustrated and several debutants show that experience is overrated. Discount code on wind chimes available.

Round One of the Masters is almost done as some stormy weather meant not all golfers completed their rounds, however, Andrew and Iain convened at the hooter to dissect an intriguing day's play. We hear from former champion Danny Willett after his improbable -4 score having been out for 6 months and the BBC's John Murray makes a fleeting appearance too. And much to Iain's delight there's finally a discount code for TCF listeners for his book, it's out now, apparently.

It’s the eve of Masters Eve and Andrew joins Iain in his BBC house, with the alternative being a three-hour journey to Andrew’s Airbnb. The two contemplate Rory McIlroy’s attempts to do very little talking in the build-up and a press conference which might as well have had the clock from Countdown going off on the ten minute mark. They consider the offerings from the other major contenders while Iain then becomes unnecessarily concerned about his pronunciation of the word ‘Masters’. In a thrilling denouement to the episode Andrew talks about how he wants to record some local birdsong and then doesn’t actually do it.

A rare Sunday pod recording as Andrew is due to fly to the USA to join Iain for one of the best weeks in golf in Augusta, Georgia at the Masters. Eddie joins to preview the famous tournament and almost falls out with Iain over Brooks Koepka and Rory McIlory. We hear from the much fancied Joaquin Niemann as well as last year's winner, LIV's Jon Rahm, who educates Iain on Basque pintxos. We also speak to the new Augusta National Women's Amateur Champion, Farnham's very own Lottie Woad and find out if it was indeed her dad who stalked Eddie from the trees at the Sunningdale Foursomes.

A special episode of TCF as Iain reports from LIV Miami where he has been chatting to some of the top players who crush, rip and fireball it, as well as making an appearance on LIV TV to debate the merits of the two sides of the great divide in the game. In this pod we also hear from Hughes Norton about his book ‘Rainmaker’ and his life as one of the most influential managers in the game and he tells us what it was like to steer the careers of such luminaries as Tiger Woods and Greg Norman. And his heavily implied regret that he never had the chance to manage Eddie Pepperell.

This week three becomes four - at least for the duration it takes for Matt Wallace to cook his dinner, as he joins us to give another insight into the highs and lows of life as a tour pro. They review the weekend’s golf and decide that golf needs - and has - a new villain, while the women’s game has a clear star. They also decide that there are too many famous Nakajimas, that Eddie may have a claim to a record breaking clubhouse and that Andrew has an obvious naivety when it comes to ordering products online.

Unexpectedly, the golf talking trio are all back in the UK as Eddie has decided to deprive the people of India of seeing him in his shorts. So they convene in the same time-zone to talk about more Scandinavian talent coming through and the continuing march of the PGA Tour journeymen, as well as discussing a boastful Bobby Mac and the unfathomable names chosen by Americans for their children. They also reveal the best value course in the UK, as chosen by you, the lovely and loyal listener.

This week our knowledge of time zones is sorely tested with Iain in Florida, Andrew in the UK and Eddie in Singapore. They manage to convene to discuss a tonic for the PGA Tour with an outstanding finish to the Players Championship and consider the current dazzling form of Scottie Scheffler. And that’s about it - yet still they somehow manage to spin it out over an hour by talking about the connection between Singapore and Canada, the difference between big cat species in heraldry and Eddie’s true shirt size.

Our trio are reunited with Andrew's mountainous sojourn over, much to Eddie's relief. They begin by looking back at Eddie's near miracles at the Sunningdale Foursomes, Iain navigates the press room in Sawgrass at The Players Championship and Andrew falls down a Chinese foot binding rabbit hole. Pro golfer Oli Wilson also joins the pod to review Matteo Mannasaro's stunning win in South Africa and Oli reveals his secret to hitting the ball further - not to be missed.

With Andrew up a mountain in Scotland it's left to Eddie, in his Oxfordshire barn and Iain, also up a mountain - more accessibly in the Alps, to bring the latest TCF offering where there's some shocking news about not-so-uncle Tony, Iain's sneaky NR and what Andrew's main attributes would be if he was on golfing computer game. There's also ample time to discuss Anthony Kim's disastrous return to golf, Thomas Detry's six-putt meltdown, Eddie's return to blogging causing a tabloid stir and we hear from England's Bronte Law as she returns to winning ways.

This week the trio aim for brevity and a concise summing up of all matters golf and in doing so fail comprehensively. Part of this is due to a prolonged discussion about whether a strange dog walker on the Isle of Wight is related to Eddie and Iain being (falsely) accused of industrial espionage. More serious chat comes in praise for the best golfer who ever drove a Morrisons van and admiration for the game and the guns of Jake Knapp. Plus some other stuff. There’s a lot in there.

This week Eddie is in Kenya looking to find his game and learns that he will have to do so in the company of the Godfather of Kenyan professional golf. Iain returns with tales of German stag weekends in Budapest, while Andrew admits to entering a golf tournament but is vague on the details. The trio also review the weekend in La La Land and welcome back Hideki Matsuyama and Will Zalatoris while wondering if the PGA Tour is getting value for money. And also wonder if Jon Rahm has hairy feet.
