There were two types of golf drama that dominated this week ... the bad kind with Patrick Reed's rules drama and the very best kind with Brad Kennedy saluting amid a host of great challengers at the fabulous debut of The Players Series at Rosebud. We chat with Kennedy and youngster Molly McLean who played a fascinating part of her own at Rosebud.

Regular visitors Karen Lunn and Nick Dastey drop by to share some exciting news about not only the Australian professional calendar this summer, but also the ground-breaking name change for the women's domestic tour.

We get special "couchside" access to great mates Hannah Green and Su Oh courtesy of Luke Mackey in Florida. Then we cross to northern NSW to catch up with Allan Clarke, he of the astounding 34 club championships, to learn of the esky-toting buggy that has helped him to golfing immortality at his beloved Macksville. All that and a heap more, including Steph Kyriacou's sensational rise through the world rankings.

 #189: Greg Chalmers and Ben Everill | File Type: audio/mpeg | Duration: 01:17:54

Masters week is in full swing and we return to Ben Everill this week - who will provide the best Aussie-focussed coverage there is via AAP - to find out how different the November Masters has looked to this point. Then, we skip west to Texas to catch up with two-time Australian Open champ Greg Chalmers. We touch on the distance debate, get the latest on Greg's back, hear how some coaching could be in his near future... and hear one of the all-time great Masters stories from Greg's first hole in 2001!

(18:30) But it's even better that we're on the spot when Jed meets his mentor as part of his prize, the legendary Ricky Ponting, who's almost as adept at golf as he is cricket.

We hear from Hannah Green and Minjee Lee before this week's Women's PGA Championship in Philadelphia, plus an extraordinary achievement among many in the golfing life of Steve Prior, who joins us before the NSW Amputee Championship this week.

 #179: Mike Clayton and Steph Kyriacou | File Type: audio/mpeg | Duration: 01:23:21

Plenty transpired in global and local golf this week, but there's no better perspective to put on the big issues than that of Mike Clayton, our resident guru. From miracle putts to Sophia Popov and the burning issue of Royal Sydney's redevelopment, Clayts has it all covered. We're also joined by Steph Kyriacou from Prague after her stellar result on the LET, sharing her thoughts with Stacey Peters about the lessons she's learnt in an incredible season.
