In the first episode of ‘Talk Birdie To Me’ they discussed:

·      Jiyai Shin’s fantastic win in the recent Vic Open; and explain how she won by taking spin off the ball into the wind.
·      The return of Tiger Woods in Phoenix, and Nick talks about bumping into Tiger in Miami after he’d beaten him.
