    Spaun Doolicks and Manuel Labour

    A two-ball this week as Andrew is forced to miss the tee-time, so there is far less ramble and much more weighty chat from Eddie and Iain as they look back on a dramatic finish to the BMW PGA at Wentworth. JJ Spaun took the title and firmly made his point to Brandt Snedeker after omission from the USA side, while Manuel Elvira emphatically made the point that pressure can make you look like a bit of a tool in golf. Eddie is able to offer an update on his own golfing status as he battles a neck problem and also a problem with late-night tweeting while taking medical-grade painkillers, but then doubles down as we discover what Bryson's homecoming actually means.

    27. Padraig Harrington: Links, Chunks & Chipping Cures

    In this special archive edition of This Golfing Life, we travel back to the spring of 2014 and Royal Liverpool Golf Club, where I sat down with three-time major champion Padraig Harrington ahead of that summer’s Open Championship at Hoylake. Harrington had already established himself as one of the great links players of his generation, winning consecutive Opens at Carnoustie and Royal Birkdale in 2007 and 2008 before adding the PGA Championship just weeks after his second Claret Jug. Our conversation became a fascinating exploration of what links golf really demands: imagination, strategy, ball flight and the ability to manufacture shots rather than simply make technically perfect swings. Harrington explains why growing up on links courses teaches you to become a player, recalls the extraordinary way Tiger Woods conquered a baked-out Hoylake in 2006, and explains why even the world’s best golfers can take years to understand how links golf should be played. We also revisit Harrington’s own major championship career: the moment he realised he really could win one; the extraordinary 48-yard pitch at Carnoustie after twice finding the Barry Burn; getting himself back into “the zone” when he thought he had thrown the Open away; the famous five-wood at Birkdale; and the strange experience of trying to defeat Greg Norman while almost everyone around him was willing the great Australian towards one final triumph. And then the conversation turns to my own notoriously fragile short game. Padraig makes me a promise: if I do exactly what he tells me, he guarantees he can teach me to chip. So we head outside, surrounded by around 100 spectators, for a chipping lesson with a three-time major champion. It does not go according to plan.
