The Chipping Forecast

An early Monday recording with Wimbledon duties for Andrew and Iain, while Eddie is still in the north of Italy, reflecting on an impressive effort in Turin where his 11th place contained a bogey-free run of 56 holes. There is discussion of the Travelers Championship - at the time of recording still to be settled between Scottie Scheffler and Viktor Hovland (spoiler alert: Hovland wins), a first-time winner of a major at the Women's PGA Championship and uninformed debate about what kind of dog Rory McIlroy would be.Brought to you by: www.petermillar.co.ukAnd by: www.ping.comEmail: tcf@thechippingforecast.co.ukInstagram: @chippingforecast

It's our big US Open debrief where Andrew, Iain and Eddie pick over the bones of events at Shinnecock Hills, admiring the play of Wyndham Clark while not in any way admiring the supporters. Is this a problem according to geography or something more widespread?There's also discussion of a near miss for Lottie Woad on the LPGA Tour as we head into major number 3 in the women's game, Iain asks if former professionals should be allowed to return to the amateur game's biggest tournaments and Eddie is preparing for his return to the tour in Italy.Brought to you by: www.petermillar.co.ukAnd by: www.ping.comEmail: tcf@thechippingforecast.co.ukInstagram: @chippingforecast

They discuss all the favourites and the potential difficulty of the course, while hearing from Rory McIlroy, Scottie Scheffler and Matt Fitzpatrick. They take a wander through the history of The US Open at Shinnecock Hills as well as the place itself and then all three manage to give their picks for the title, letting you know exactly which players you should avoid.This episode is brought to you by: www.petermillar.co.ukAnd also: www.ping.comAnd possibly also Lemsips.Email: tcf@thechippingforecast.co.ukInstagram: @chippingforecast.

It’s US Open week and Andrew, Eddie and Iain convene to preview the third men’s major of the season. Andrew is missing because of the knock-on effects of Denis Shapovalov being unable to win in straight sets at Queens.There’s a review of the Canadian Open and the Curtis Cup, while Iain tells us (thankfully not) all about his match against Andrew and Eddie reveals just how much he has been practising in the past week. The answer may not entirely surprise you.Brought to you by: www.petermillar.co.ukAnd by: www.ping.comEmail us: tcf@thechippingforecast.co.ukInstagram: @chippingforecast

The young, fresh and not at all over the hill trio have plenty to get their teeth into this week - Charley Hull goes close in a major once again, but Nelly Korda makes it number four in her collection. Eddie reflects on a tough four days in the Netherlands and an event which leaves all three extolling the virtues of a cut in golf. JT Poston turns his form around to win the Memorial, Andy Murray suffers golfing heartache and Eddie finally decides that he might not rate AI as a swing coach.This episode is brought to you by: www.petermillar.co.ukAnd by: www.ping.comEmail: tcf@thechippingforecast.co.ukInstagram: @chippingforecast

This week Andrew and Iain let Eddie reflect upon the sharpest of cuts in Austria, which did at least allow him sauna time with the locals. The trio then talk about a chance missed for Eric Cole to provide Laura Baugh with the perfect birthday present and look ahead to the US Women's Open. Meanwhile, Bryson taking AI coaching advice leads to Andrew - via an unkind ex-tennis player - to receive a disturbingly frank and accurate assessment of his golfing abilities.TCF brought to you by: www.petermillar.co.ukAnd also: www.ping.comEmail: tcf@thechippingforecast.co.ukInstagram: @chippingforecast

This week is full of Belgian waffle but a lot of talk about actual golf stuff as Eddie returns with tales of hole-in-ones, good irons and bad temperament, while Andrew and Iain are determined to let him know that he's close to his best form. Some other matters are discussed as well... he said vaguely.Brought to you by: www.petermillar.co.ukAnd: www.ping.comEmail:tcf@thechippingforecast.co.ukInstagram: @chippingforecast

This week the three not-quite-amigos are talking about a trio of very special victories at the weekend. Aaron Rai becomes England's first (US) PGA Champion in over 100 years and we hear from Wolverhampton's finest on a life-changing victory, which he did with one of the great major final round performances. Meanwhile Lottie Woad wins on the LPGA Tour and Leonie Harm takes victory on the LET in Germany in what is a remarkable life story. There's plenty of time for other chat as well - Eddie's in Belgium preparing to get back out competing, the standard of Welsh golf comes under the spotlight and Andrew shows his very selective memory in predicting winners.Visit: www.petermillar.co.ukThe BunkR wedge (and much more) at: www.ping.comEmail: tcf@thechippingforecast.co.ukInstagram: @chippingforecast

A chipolata to snack upon, on the eve of the PGA Championship. Andrew AND Eddie are joined (eventually) by Iain, who gives us his thoughts from Aronimink and in particular why he's grateful that he doesn't have a gambling problem. We hear from Rory McIlroy, who will be hoping to hobble his way into contention on an unsightly foot. And each of the TCF team reveals who they think might win, just so that you know who best to avoid.Email: tcf@thechippingforecast.co.ukInstagram: @chippingforecast
