All the talk from the “fifth major” wasn’t  about the winner Matt Kuchar but the bizarre pre-shot antics of third round leader Kevin Na. We catch up with Australian Associated Press correspondent Ben Everill from Los Angeles and Bruce Young here in Australia to chat about that, the Australian chances heading into this week’s Byron Nelson, the impact of Twitter on the professional game and an update on Jarrod Lyle. Also for those who like to follow Australia’s players in the US follow Ben on Twitter at http://twitter.com/beneverill

It’s ANZAC Day in Australia so no live show today but I thought I’d post an interview done a few weeks a go for our other podcast , State of the Game, with Olympic course designer Gil Hanse. Myself and Geoff Shackelford, who has worked with Hanse on course restoration and design in the past, got the chance to speak with Hanse about two weeks after the announcement was made. Hanse was generous with his time and spoke openly about his plans for the process, and the politics the job may entail given the client, in this hour long chat.

Somehow, Augusta National and the Masters never disappoints and that tradition continued in 2012 with the unorthodox Bubba Watson claiming his first major in a two hole play-off from 2010 Open champion Louis Oosthuizen. Join Host Rod Morri and analyst Bruce Young as they look back on all the excitement – and some of the stories you might have missed – from another memorable US Masters.

Bit of a disaster recording this morning’s TalkinGolf Live discussion, apologies to Luke Elvy and Michael Goldstein who made the time to come along and chat about the upcoming Masters. A horrible echo permeated the entire broadcast and it is, unfortunately, unusable. It will be fixed before next week’s show. In the meantime, we did record a Masters preview for our other podcast, State of the Game, last week with Geoff Shackelford, John Huggan and Rod Morri which we have posted instead. This was recorded before the finish of the Shell Houston Open so full marks to Geoff Shackelford for picking Hunter Mahan as a dark horse long before he claimed the victory in Texas. Also discussed is the tricky situation Augusta National finds itself in as the all male membership question rears it’s head again.

The world’s attention turns to the six inches of tendon behind Tiger Woods’ left heel but there is plenty more to think about in the world of golf, not the least of which is the future of how we consume it. Join Host Rod Morri with Melbourne Herald Sun golf writer Mark Hayes and Scotland on Sunday’s John Huggan as they break down the state of Tiger Woods plus, more interestingly, some of the question marks hanging over mainstream media as we know it and how sport might be delivered in the future.
