The 153rd Open is here which can mean only one thing... it's time for another round of Open Commutes courtesy of The bunkered Podcast team

On today's episode, recorded live from Portrush, Michael and Ben reflect on an eventful journey to get to Northern Ireland as well as how Rory McIlroy appeared during his press earlier-than-usual Monday press conference.

Elsewhere, two-time Open champion Padraig Harrington joins for a blether as he prepares to hit the opening tee shot in this year's championship. The Irishman also discusses his first 24 hours with the Claret Jug, gear tweaks, his love for Royal Portrush, and... soft-scoop ice cream. Yes, really.

Tune-in now and every day this week!

Everybody stay calm but The 153rd Open is upon us - and what a week it’s shaping up to be!

On this bumper episode of The bunkered Podcast, Michael, James and Lewis set the scene for a potentially epic week at Royal Portrush.

From where, specifically, on the course the Claret Jug might be won and lost, to Rory’s prospects of book-ending men’s major season with another emotional ‘W’, the guys cover all bases.

There’s dark horses you should watch out for, thoughts on how the week might go for the R&A’s new chief exec, potential changes that should be made to improve the event, insight into why British golfers have gone 26 (twenty-six!) years without winning the championship, and even a quiz for good measure.

It’s the most in-depth and informed Open preview pod you could hope for.
