This weekend, Fota Island in Cork hosts the 2014 Irish Open with the likes of Rory McIlroy, Graeme McDowell, Padraig Harrington and Darren Clarke all set do descend on one of the European Tour's premiere events.

We were joined by golf writer Brian Keogh who believes it is a course that will suit the likes of Rory and G'Mac even if they have an eye on the next major championship, and how golfers like Padraig Harrington cope with changes to their game when they enter their 40s.

Keogh also expects big things from the 2009 Irish Open winner Shane Lowry. Listen to the full preview via the podcast.
