About this episode
We’ve reached the halfway point of our run down of the best golf holes on The Open rota courses. Now, Tom Irwin joins Steve Carroll once more to discuss the back 9 of his favourite holes from the 10 courses that have hosted the Claret Jug. What will he pick? Be warned, there are some pretty famous holes that don’t make the cut. What do you think about his selections, and what would you choose? Tom Irwin is getting in the Open spirit. He’s somehow managed to blag his way round most of the courses on The Open rota over the last few months. In honour of the journey, he runs down his favourite holes from the 10 courses that have regularly hosted the Claret Jug. It’s an eclectic – so the 1st hole on Tom’s list must also be the 1st hole at one of the venues – and so on. It’s a meaty task so this week, Tom and host Steve Carroll run through his front nine. We’ll tackle the homeward stretch in the next episode. What do you make of his selections? What mistakes has he made and what did he miss?
