The Blag

The Top 100 in 10 Golf Podcast

Send us a text

Ever tried "blagging" your way into a world-renowned golf course only to be met with a polite but firm "no"? Join us on our quest to play the top 100 golf courses in a decade, as we hilariously recount our failed attempts at sweet-talking our way into Moortown Golf Club. Despite our well-rehearsed scripts and cheeky charm, we still ended up paying full price and had to face the strict etiquette rules, including the classic mobile phone ban in the clubhouse.
As we explore the rich history of Moortown Golf Club, the first Ryder Cup venue on British soil, we share cheeky anecdotes of our student days in Leeds and poke fun at our golfing preparations, which mostly involve trying to remember the dress code. From the legendary Walter Hagen to the quirky design of the Gibraltar hole by Dr. Alister MacKenzie, our chat is loaded with both reverence and irreverence, making it perfect for golf aficionados and armchair enthusiasts alike.
Anticipation for our next round is building, as we banter about our practice (or lack thereof), the likelihood of losing a “gallery ball,” and the side bets that could lead to a spirited post-game podcast. We even take a humorous detour into TikTok territory, debating whether a dance challenge or a hole-in-one warrants more celebration. Whether you're here for the laughs, the history, or just the schadenfreude of watching us hack away at golfing greatness, there's something for everyone in this episode.
