Rory McIlroy has made yet more Masters history, becoming just the fourth man to successfully defend the green jacket – but where does that rank him amongst Europe’s golfers of all time? And did he have, as some have suggested, an “unfair advantage” this year?

Michael, James and Lewis get into the weeds on the latest episode of The bunkered Podcast.

Elsewhere, the guys weigh up Justin Rose’s prospects of ever winning the green jacket, the Par-3 Contest’s 'celeb’ problem, merch madness, and Robert MacIntyre and Sergio Garcia’s bad behaviour.

Plus, James has an announcement...

Following his latest car crash, Tiger Woods' competitive future is once again in significant doubt. Is it time for the former world No.1 to walk away from golf? Should the chance to captain the US Ryder Cup team be taken away from him? Is he competent enough to lead the PGA Tour’s Future Competition Committee?

Michael, James and Lewis discuss all of these points – and more – on this week’s episode of The bunkered Podcast.

Elsewhere, there’s praise for Gary Woodland following his remarkable victory in Texas and reaction to growing speculation that the Ryder Cup could be heading to... Bolton?!

Golf is the greatest sport of all... but that doesn’t mean it’s perfect.

And so, inspired by yet another slow debacle on tour, Michael and Lewis take the opportunity on this week’s pod to spell out all of the other improvements they’d make to the game, from the grassroots up.

Elsewhere, the guys start the countdown to The Masters by picking out some players who’ve got a fight on their hands to make it to Augusta.

Asked & Answered, Podder of Merit, and Golf Tenable all feature as usual, and Michael gets freaked out by something he saw near the office.

The behaviour of certain spectators at The PLAYERS Championship last weekend has created almost as many headlines as the golf itself - so is it time for the PGA Tour to straighten it out?

Michael, James and Lewis discuss in detail on this week’s episode of The bunkered Podcast.

Elsewhere, does anything make Cameron Young smile? Why can’t English golfers win at TPC Sawgrass? How should we be feeling about Rory as he prepares to defend the Masters?

Plus, Lewis tries using A.I. and James is getting his teeth done, both with absolutely terrible consequences.

Get ready to for all the “fifth major” start to resume in earnest – it’s time for the 2026 PLAYERS Championship!

On this week’s episode, Michael, James and Lewis set the scene for the 52nd edition of the PGA Tour’s flagship event. Will defending champ Rory McIlroy be fit to play? Will the real Scottie Scheffler show up? Why is it so damn hard to defend at TPC Sawgrass? The guys debate it all.

Elsewhere, has Luke Donald risked his legacy by three-peating as Europe’s Ryder Cup captain? And Lewis is now a qualified rules official... and it’s actually way more interesting than it sounds!

McLaren Racing launching a new golf equipment company was not on our bingo card for this year… but here we are!

The F1 giant has teased its plans to enter the world of club manufacture next month, with some exceptionally high-profile hires to its staff already having been confirmed.

What does this mean for consumers, for tour pros, for the marketplace and more? What should we expect from the new McLaren clubs? And more the point, could this herald a wave of other big tech disruptors launching their own golf hardware (the Apple iBall, for example)?

Michael, James and Lewis discuss all of this on this week’s episode of The bunkered Podcast.

Elsewhere, the guys react to Shane Lowry’s painful Cognizant Classic collapse and have some harsh words for some of their media colleagues.

Jon Rahm’s Ryder Cup future appears to be hanging by a thread. Is it really possible that he’ll be banned from playing in next year’s match at Adare Manor?

Michael, James and Lewis discuss that - and what it could all mean for Europe’s prospects of a third straight win - on this week’s episode of The bunkered Podcast.

Elsewhere, there’s chat about Anthony Kim, Tiger Woods’ Masters hopes, a ridiculous game of Golf Tenable, and ‘a pair of beavers’.
