This week's episode begins with yet more praise for Eugenio Chacarra, who won the Delhi Championship to take the lead in the Race to Dubai. As well as his prospects of winning it, we also consider the battle for status which heads to the Korea Championship this week and reveal why the man on the bubble has decided not to play. There's more from LIV Golf's ongoing issues including confirmation that one veteran is leaving to pursue DP World Tour opportunities, but should he have them? Fire-breathing Joost Luiten doesn't think so and that too comes up, along with Kisner vs McIlroy, Highest Bidder, and the world of golf this week.

The question ahead of our latest top-20 bonus episode is not so much who will the 20 be, but how many players can we in fact cram in? The topic: best European golfers under 30 years of age. Find out which Scandinavian is best of the bunch, how many Spaniards and Danes there are, and which current PGA Tour rookie is highest. We also talk about one of the biggest improvers of the past 12 months and why some have fallen down the list in that time.

Sliced is a little later than usual this week as we reflect on wins for Grant Forrest and Michael Brennan, and what went wrong for the likes of Angel Ayora and Jacob Skov Olesen. Then it's on to an evolving LIV Golf situation as Jon Rahm confirms his departure and the DP World Tour jumps at the opportunity to apply more pressure with the player commitment deadline fast approaching. We go from that to the latest Race to Dubai standings with two events remaining, starting with the DP World India Championship at Delhi this week. There's more from around the world of golf, followed by an AI-assisted Highest Bidder.

It's a busy Sliced episode this week as along with the Dunhill Links and a PGA Tour event in Utah, we had the Asian Games to talk about, where Tom Kim produced a display of guts and class to win a significant gold medal. There's also the Korn Ferry Tour, where Sam's favourite Scotsman landed a double which has him in line for some significant opportunities next year, while Ben has a theory relating to the winner of the latest HotelPlanner Tour event. The news is dominated by LIV again, with key player non-committal on 2.0, another seeking clarity, and Phil Mickelson also making an appearance. Once through all that and a Forgotten Golfer we'd definitely forgotten about, we talk Open de Espana and Baycurrent Classic before signing off as we always do...

We overcome the disappointment of Sunday's Presidents Cup finish to discuss what went wrong for the Internationals, where we are with the event as a whole, the two captains, data vs results, and more, but only after talking through Matt Fitzpatrick's fourth win of the year in the Open de France. Also on the agenda are some coy comments from Cam Smith regarding LIV's future, some injury news, the Asian Games, and a Forgotten Golfer of the Week who forgot he retired. We run through the Race to Dubai and how things are looking for 2027, then there's a look at the Dunhill Links and the PGA Tour event in Utah, before a Highest Bidder right in Sam's wheelhouse.  Get 15% off with TRUE by using code SLICED: truelinkswear.uk/ Subscribe to our newsletter: tinyurl.com/sliced-newsletter Enter our DPWT fantasy league with code 8NYORX5G: fantasy.dpworldtour.com/leagues

It was a breathtaking finish to the BMW PGA Championship and that's where we begin our latest episode, dissecting Manuel Elvira's shocking mistake, JJ Spaun's poise under the gun, the putts that separated him from Rory McIlroy, and Aaron Rai's 18th-hole decision. There's a brief word on both the PGA Tour event and a new winner from Denmark, and a bit more on one from Scotland who Sam has been following closely. We cover Tosti's tantrum and get into the details of PGA Tour plans for 2028, and then it's on to a welcome return to Le Golf National, plus our assessment of what looks on paper to be a one-sided Presidents Cup.

For the second time in a month we have a bonus episode following a trip behind the ropes on the DP World Tour, this time at the BMW PGA Championship where Sam caught up with Alex Smalley, Bud Cauley and Laurie Canter - and grabbed another phone number. We also discuss some of the news that has broken this week including the return of the Hong Kong Open and concerns over the upcoming Middle East events after Matt Fitzpatrick and Robert MacIntyre both expressed security concerns. There's a word on Category 12 and ideas for improving it and a few more nuggets too.

It was another glorious weekend of golf in Europe and two dream results, as Shane Lowry romped to his second Irish Open title and Europe won a thrilling Solheim Cup. We're on hand to pick apart both storylines including Lowry's comments on Saturday and how Europe made the USA pay for early celebrations. After that the news segment includes some fighting which could even have Ryder Cup implications ahead of an upcoming scouting mission, before we get into the LIV bankruptcy filing and some vital details which suggest the future '2.0' version may struggle to make it past mid-October. After Forgotten Golfer we get to the BMW PGA Championship at Wentworth, the jewel in the crown for the DP World Tour, there's a word too on the new PGA Tour event, and a disappointing combined effort in Highest Bidder.

We split roles at the weekend with Sam focusing on the European Masters and Ben the Walker Cup, so both are covered in detail to begin today's show. Sam talks about how Thriston Lawrence won his third Crans title in five years after Paul Casey's late mishap, while Ben runs through an all-time GB&I comeback after some premature USA celebrations in the Walker Cup. We then get to the latest news including some interesting LIV 2.0 updates plus an unfortunate injury for a 2026 major contender, and speaking of injury that's again a bit of a theme in Forgotten Golfer. After that it's Irish Open and Solheim Cup chat before Sam discovers a treasure trove of Highest Bidder topics...

It was another win for the podcast (sort of) as Joe Dean, one of those we spoke to prior to the British Masters, only went and won the thing. We begin with that plus notes on some contenders at the Belfry, before paying tribute to Scottie Scheffler's tour de force at East Lake where Viktor Hovland came up short. In the latest news recap we talk about Good Good's bad bad week, some updates for both the men's and women's TGL, and where we are with LIV Golf after job losses and reports of an imminent bankruptcy fiilng. The new format for the Tour Championship gets the thumbs up, but it would be fair to say we were less sure of just why one Presidents Cup vice captain got the nod. There's a bit more Presidents Cup talk before we press ahead with a preview of the European Masters at the stunning Crans-sur-Sierre, the Rosa Challenge, and the Walker Cup.

For the second year running, we met up at the Belfry during British Masters week to try to bring our listeners behind the ropes on the DP World Tour. In this episode you'll hear us caddie for two European golfers and then find out if we were more wowed by Robert Rock's presence or Angel Ayora's swing. There's insight from Joe Dean on what it's like not knowing if you're going to earn any money, before his compatriot Matthew Jordan explains how his form has turned and what he's looking forward to in the coming months. We spoke to Daniel Hillier and found out how he followed Ryan Fox's Open win close up, then grabbed Richard Mansell in the car park, before signing off with our takeaways.

We're back, recording on the day of release, for our first standard episode in a little while as we begin a massive run of DP World Tour golf. First though we reflect on the Nexo Championship and a long overdue, much deserved win for Scott Jamieson, and the latest victory in a career season for Player of the Year candidate, Wyndham Clark. After that there's plenty of LIV-related news to get through including some fun and games from wantaway Tyrrell Hatton and a questionable new tagline, while we also have a positive update from an absent DP World Tour player. Speaking of which, this week's Forgotten Golfer is a former winner of the British Masters and that takes us into this week's tournament at the Belfry, which we're visiting ourselves on Tuesday. There's the small matter of the Tour Championship and plenty more in a packed episode that we hope you enjoy.

After a couple of bonus-style episode to fill the summer holiday gap, today's Sliced looks a bit more like our normal Monday episodes, but as it was pre-recorded you'll have to do without recaps of the weekend golf in Denmark, Memphis, in the US Amateur, on the LET and LPGA, and elsewhere. Still, there's much to get through as we catch up on a run of potential superstar champions on the PGA Tour and try to work out which if any will make the Presidents Cup, where the US picture is complicated. We talk about a close battle for Solheim Cup qualification and why one side should be favoured for that, and we think about Rory McIlroy's ambitions for 2027 and where the Ryder Cup sits. There's time to bring you up to date on LIV (albeit this was recorded before their Team Championship was cancelled, news that had been expected) and in particular, Bryson DeChambeau's claim that every single golf fan wants him back on the PGA Tour. Is that true? We have our say before a spin through another busy week in the world of golf, plus there's a tribute from Sam in our forgotten golfer of the week slot.

Today's episode of Sliced gives new listeners a taste of our bonus-style episodes, where we speak to people inside the world of golf. And our guest is a cracker, as high-flying Eugenio Chacarra tells us about his career so far and why the best is still to come. One of the first LIV Golf signings while still at college, Eugenio is perfectly positioned to talk about what it's like being presented with that offer, why he has no regrets, and how he knew it was the right time to go and chase his dreams. Those dreams include majors, the PGA Tour and the Ryder Cup, all of which are covered, while we learn how his time at Oklahoma State turned him into a fast player. He talks us through this year's highlights, what's to come, and much more.  Our usual Monday episodes - where we recap the latest tour golf action, discuss the latest news and preview upcoming events - will return in two weeks.   Get 15% off with TRUE by using code SLICED: truelinkswear.uk/ Subscribe to our newsletter: tinyurl.com/sliced-newsletter Enter our DPWT fantasy league with code 8NYORX5G: fantasy.dpworldtour.com/leagues

We're taking a summer holiday from the regular shows but fear not, there's plenty to fill the void. First up, in a format familiar to our subscribers, we're ranking the top 20 (or is it 21?) courses on the DP World Tour. How high up does Valderrama manage to sneak? Does DLF feature? Which Middle East venue do we consider best? What is it that earned one South African course a high ranking? And which two courses could be in here on backdrop alone? Listen, tell us your favourites, where we went wrong, which we omitted, and feel free to send ideas for similar Top 20 episodes.
