Golf Is Ruining My Life

Today is a VERY special episode of Golf Is Ruining My Life as we are teaming up with the guys over at Glen Moray Single Malt Whisky to give you an insight into what it is ACTUALLY like to be a greenskeeper at one of the worlds best golf courses.

In celebration of the 2026 ISPS Handa Senior Open Championship we are putting your questions to Andrew Jowett (AJ) Director of Golf and Grant Frogley the Golf Courses Manager at Gleneagles.

We have always wanted to highlight the amazing work the teams behind the scenes do to make the golf courses we all love pristine... as it's a lot more than just cutting and watering the grass, as we go onto find out.

We also want to thank the team at Glen Moray Single Malt Whisky, the Official Whisky of the ISPS Handa Senior Open Championship, for making this happen. You can taste their amazing fruity Speyside single malt down at their tasting room at Glenagles from the 23rd to 26th July at the Senior Open with tickets available HERE

Sit back, grab a dram and enjoy the chat. Cheers!

The tour's done, life has lost all meaning, so naturally we're back to talk absolute nonsense with you.

This week. TP has beef with a marshal (on the 17th, obviously, because when else), we get deep into the great two-ball-letting-a-two-ball-through debate, and there's a lads-trip incident involving our mate Luke, a runaway push trolley, a large body of water!

Thanks to our friends at GolfBreaks for hooking us up with an amazing prize, remember the best email of the summer will be joining us for 4 nights at Hilton Pyramids Golf Resort, In Egypt with 3 rounds of golf (1x Dreamland GC, 1x The Allegria GC, 1x New Giza GC).

New episode of GIRML... Monday, Thursday and Friday (fortnightly)

TP hits the big 3-5 this week and we're reflecting on why golf is one of the few things that actually gets BETTER as you get older. But first, we have to talk about the wedge incident. Yes, TP snapped his brand new ping 60 degree in a bunker during his annual match with his mate George and had to do the walk of shame folding it away. Grim. 😳

We also FINALLY reveal the big secret we've been keeping all tour (spoiler: four of you are coming to Egypt with us 🐪), relive the shot of Tom Green's life at Blitz and set up a story about possibly the worst Marshall in golf history. More on Thursday. ⛳

We’ve also got another Toast or Roast with our friends at ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠England Golf⁠, where another scorecard goes under the microscope.

All this and more coming up on this week’s episode of Golf Is Ruining My Life.

See you Thursday!

Tom’s 👊

Alright Par Pals 👋

The tour is nearly over, we are absolutely exhausted and Tom Green walked into a door after having the time of his life at Blitz Golf. Classic. We're also planning the GIRML Golf Day for 2027 and getting very excited about it.

In the email corner with our friends at Golf Breaks, we hear from a 15 year old who shot 3 under in a comp, had his card questioned by a bond villain and then got banned from the medal. We are furious on his behalf. 😤

Plus a woman who held her nerve to win her club comp, a man playing wolf under red kites and the one and only toast or roast with our friends at England Golf. ⛳

Thanks to our friends at GolfBreaks for hooking us up with an amazing prize, remember the best email of the summer will be joining us for 4 nights at Hilton Pyramids Golf Resort, In Egypt with 3 rounds of golf (1x Dreamland GC, 1x The Allegria GC, 1x New Giza GC).
