Ep117: Mark' The World Feed is Torture', Nick reveals 'Every Golfers Fear', and How to Putt Like a Pro
Plenty to discuss on Talk Birdie To Me today, but we start with some sage life advice from Viktor Hovland, who appears to be branching out into a new career as a life coach.Mark asks Nick about a rumour he has heard for years about caddies and the chaplains on the pro tour. And then we get onto the issue of the week - the world feed. Mark describes it as 'torture'.Nick and Mark chat about Hovland's win at Valspar, his golf swing changes and his 'tomahawking'. Leads to a chat about swing changes, and golfers who 'owned' their swing, and Nick reveals every pro golfers fear.JT's putting. Mark will do a masterclass later in the show saying that he will outline one thing you can do to help you putt like a pro.We discuss some of the bad behaviour over the last week, if you're watching on YouTube, we play the videos - very funny. And Mark discusses Billy Horschel and how he appears to be muscling in on 'Nick O'Who' territory.Mark believes he has identified why the PGA/LIV talks have stalled, and he blames Tiger Woods. He explains on the pod.And we discuss the disaster that happened on the coverage of the Heritage Classic at the weekend. Nick had hoped it might be overlooked on the pod, it wasn't.After the turn, Nick has an update that he has sourced during the show on the reason for the world feed. Then onto the Top 5 for Southern Golf Club, and Nick looks at the Top 5 comebacks following a swing change.Lots of feedback - heavily centred on Nicks comments on Rory potentially changing his caddy, and on the world feed commentary. We get a trumpet update prior the the PING global results, and Mark has some news out of Augusta regarding trees. Yes trees.

Ep115: Nick O'Hern: '2 Things Rory Must do to Win a Major in 2025', Mark Allen 'The Players Should be a Major'
We start today by talking about The Players, a wonderful tournament, and Nick and Mark discuss Rory's win. Mark believes it is time The Players became classed as a major, he loves the event. Nick agrees it is fantastic. Whilst Rory won, Nick has identified two things that he needs to do in order to win a (current) major this year, and he explains what they are and why they would make a huge difference. Mark has an observation on Rory's putting which we discuss. An interesting week for Rory, he won The Players, and also pinched a kids mobile phone. Reasonable behaviour or not? Nick and Mark give their view. And he made some interesting comments on The Champions Tour, which Ernie Els replied to, and we chat about.Mark asks Nick about the tree on the 6th tee, and we discuss the Brandel Chamblee and Phil McGinley discussion about LIV and the PGA.And we can't go to the turn without looking at how our Betr multi went on The Players.Top 5 from Mark today is his Top 5 notable non-wagglers. Nick runs around the world with PING global results. And in feedback, we have a couple of book suggestions from wolfpackers, and lots of feedback on Nick and Marks comments about what courses are suitable to host The Australian Open.We call John from Cootamundra, who tells us about a fantastic family Ambrose tournament this weekend - for more info you can call the pro shop here.And a cracking masterclass from Nick on the three-quarter shot.We're live from Titleist and FootJoy HQ, thanks to our great partners:Titleist, the #1 ball in golf;FootJoy, the #1 shoe and glove in golf;The watchMynumbers app, play smarter and use your data.
