In Part 1 of this podcast, you’ll hear from Peyton, Eli and Cooper Manning, plus Eric Church, the country music star, Jim Nantz, the voice of golf, Joe LaCava, Tiger’s caddie, and you’ll listen in on John Daly smashing a drive off a tall boy Tenants. Two foursomes of friends start their trip as Tiger is finishing his Open, they navigate cemetery walls at midnight to pay their respects to Old and Young Tom Morris, while Cooper Manning pours and passes out free beers a Rusacks robe. They play Kingsbarns and Dumbarnie before watching Cam Smith catch Rory McIlroy from one of the greatest porches in sports.
In Part 2 of this podcast about the greatest buddies trip happening in and around the playing of the 150th Open Championship, the Manning brothers, Eric Church and several others continue their romp around the linksland of the UK, immersing themselves in the culture and traditions at some of the best golf courses in the world. From North Berwick to Gullane, Muirfield and Royal County Down, Eli Manning shares his wine and gets heat for ordering fish, Cooper Manning gets out of the robe but gets in red knee-high socks after Muirfield’s “proper” lunch, and a jet-lagged Eric Church is inspired to write a song, which he’s kind enough to share with us at the end of the adventure. More insider info, course reviews and reflections throughout this oral history of a trip that was a “once-in-a-lifetime experience” for a special group of friends.
