The Chipping Forecast

Fresh from a top 5.....0 place in Dubai, Eddie has to first of all explain his broken wedge and grazed knuckles, but then he and Andrew pick over a result that still shows plenty of encouragement for the year ahead. Meanwhile they run out of things to say in admiration for Scottie Scheffler after he returns to golf and gets straight back to winning ways. They run out of things to say in general if we're honest, but there is consideration for Eddie starting a TGL golf team and an acknowledgement that Laurie Canter will not be signed up by a Saudi Arabian darts league.Brought to you by: www.petermillar.co.ukAnd: www.ping.comEmail: tcf@thechippingforecast.co.ukInstagram: @chippingforecastWatch Eddie's final round in Dubai: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pFGWbbDYpwI

And thus, the Carter-less weeks begin. With Iain on his travels, Andrew and Eddie are left to stumble forward like Bill Oddie and Tim Brooke-Taylor without Graeme Garden, but fortunately there is plenty to talk about - Eddie is now preparing to start his 2026 golfing year at the Dubai Desert Classic and has a new caddie into the bargain. There are changes on LIV with exciting new names and players, Marco Penge has new clubs, Scottie Scheffler is coming out of hibernation and Andrew has misplaced a Wellington.www.petermillar.co.ukFor the new Ping G440 K driver, visit ping.comEmail: tcf@thechippingforecast.co.ukInstagram: @chippingforecast

A bit of a mess of an episode, due to the late news that Brooks Koepka is back on the PGA Tour with a new pathway which would allow other big names to follow.After that it's business as usual, which means that Andrew, Eddie and Iain cover any number of topics related to golf. And others which are not.Koepka chat up until 16 mins 15.Visit www.petermillar.co.ukCheck out https://eu.ping.com/en-gbEmail: tcf@thechippingforecast.co.uk

Difficult scoring conditions for the pod this week with next to zero golf actually happening. Yet Andrew, Eddie and Iain still manage to find over an hour of chat by discussing coloured golf balls, darts, TGL, the naming of South American countries and Al Besselink.What's more, we find out which major championship Eddie decided not to play in...Visit: www.petermillar.co.ukVisit: https://eu.ping.com/en-gb/clubsEmail: tcf@thechippingforecast.co.ukInstagram: @chippingforecast

For our last episode of 2025 Andrew, Eddie and Iain are joined by tennis legend / golf anorak / poor skiier Andy Murray to talk about his ongoing golfing journey and look forward to an almost certain victory alongside Eddie in the Sunningdale Foursomes next year. Apart from that, they remember Jumbo Ozaki and chat about Brooks Koepka's exit from LIV, Mito Pereira's exit from golf and Tiger Woods' exit from his forties. Then they finish up the year with a mention for a forgotten great of South African golf.Thanks for listening in 2025.Visit www.petermillar.co.ukInstagram: @chippingforecastemail: tcf@thechippingforecast.co.uk

In the last episode before Christmas, Andrew, Iain and Eddie convene like the ghosts of past, present and yet to come to mull over Eddie's final tournament for the year, in Mauritius.43rd place doesn't sound exciting and, let's be honest, it isn't. But there is still plenty to be positive about for our resident Tour pro with putting and short game improving. Apart from the trio discussing that, there is also talk about the respective achievements of Jayden Schaper in making it back to back titles and Ryan Gerard in qualifying for The Masters. Other stuff is also talked about in the pod, but I can't remember exactly what at the moment. Merry Christmas.

Three become four this week as Laurie Canter joins Andrew, Eddie and Iain to have a detailed chat about his impending move back to LIV. Eddie, meanwhile, is in Mauritius preparing for his return to competition this week by rowing and throwing a tennis ball, while Andrew and Iain defend themselves against various critics on any number of subjects.Visit: www.petermillar.co.ukEmail: tcf@thechippingforecast.co.ukInstagram: @chippingforecast.

How do we find consistency in golf? That is the question vexing Eddie at the moment after his trip to Australia where he led during the Australian Open, yet still failed to make the weekend. Remarkably, driving is the only part of his game which is offering permanent satisfaction and he has moved on to Dubai to find some answers. Or just lie in the sun.The trio also wonder if, or how, the Australian Open could become a major as well as interpreting dreams, talking about Norwegian supermarkets and deciding who are the anti-Spaniards.Visit: www.petermillar.co.uk/outerwearEmail: tcf@thechippingforecast.co.ukInstagram: @chippingforecast

This week Eddie breaks down a solid but unspectacular performance at the Australian PGA as he gets his DP World Tour season underway - giving us the often quite temperamental details of what actually went on and his various Eddie-esque methods of dealing with them.Andrew and Iain talk about Fuzzy Zoeller, who died this week, outlining his engaging personality, huge golfing ability and the significant mistake off the course which stayed with him. The news of of Laurie Canter officially joining LIV with the Majesticks broke too late for Eddie to discuss it, but Andrew and Iain do, while Eddie looks ahead to the Australian Open at Melbourne from the comfort one of the top-three hotels he has ever stayed in.Cashmere time at Peter Millar: https://www.petermillar.co.uk/c/gift-guide/cashmereEmail time at: tcf@thechippingforecast.co.ukInstagram time at: @chippingforecast
