Rory McIlroy: Unburdened and dangerous

Gav dials in from Quail Hollow where Rory McIlroy begins his new quest - to become the first golfer of all time to win a calendar Grand Slam.

He and Sinead consider the long odds against such a feat yet ponder whether a freewheeling and easy McIlroy can at least take the next step at the golf course with which he has a cherished relationship.

Also, the pair discuss Shane Lowry’s chances after a heartbreaking weekend at the Truist Championship.

And what legacy are the Irish pair providing back home, where playing numbers - already high - have taken an upswing on the back of their exploits?
