About this episode
We don’t know about you but, for us, The Players is where the golf season really starts. This one is special. It’s the 50th edition and Tom Irwin and Steve Carroll kick off season two of The NCG Golf Podcast by previewing the ‘fifth major’. The pair, who’ve both taken a spin around Sawgrass, break down the course and discuss their favourite moments. Did they get out of 17 alive?

And which sporting celebrity is Steve up against in a winter foursomes last four clash? The NCG Golf Podcast is produced in association with the TaylorMade TP5 golf ball
