Bernhard Langer doesn’t regret much about his Hall of Fame golf career. But there is still one that hurts. The popular German was just a kid when he first rocked up at Royal St George’s for The Open in 1981 – a scrawny 23-year-old with bouncing blonde curls, a wispy moustache, and absolutely no idea of the memories – good and bad – he would make over the next four decades on the Kent coast.   The 149th Open is his sixth at Sandwich and perhaps his last realistic chance of grabbing the one that has, so far, got away. He joins Alex Perry on the NCG Podcast to chat about what the Open meant to him, his phenomenal career to date, and trading major titles with Greg Norman...

And that's before we get to tales of eating curries with Hugh Grant...

A major champion, more than a dozen tour titles, and a three-time Ryder Cup winner - and those are just the highlights. To borrow the cliché, there isn’t much Graeme McDowell hasn’t done in golf.

And, of course, he gives us a fascinating insight into that US Open win at Pebble Beach as well as the rollercoaster ride that is his Ryder Cup career - from his rocky rookie year to his special bond with Victor Dubuisson. A future Team Europe captain? Don’t bet against it. But there are other goals in his sights before that...

This week: Seacroft Golf Club. One of English golf’s true outposts, Seacroft is on the Lincolnshire coast separated from the great Norfolk links by The Wash. Designed by Willie Fernie, the club famously failed to act on the subsequent advice of the great Alister MacKenzie. Now the links is being lovingly restored by Clyde Johnson to rave reviews.
