Rai smiling, 2.5 wins for Griffin, Higgo's drop, PGA Tour cards battle, LIV goes to 72 holes, Highest Bidder season finale
This week's podcast begins with reflections on Abu Dhabi and Mexico, where Aaron Rai and Ben Griffin were the winners. So was Sami Valimaki but perhaps less so Garrick Higgo after his ruling hijinks in an event which may not live long in the memory. Speaking of LIV, their change from 54 to 72 holes takes up a chunk of our news slot along with some curious potential new team names, before we get onto the DP World Tour Championship and the end of our first season of Sliced. Like all great golf tours, the next one begins as early as Monday. Subscribe, rate, review and comment before joining us then.Subscribe to our newsletter here: https://t.co/Jh8SujqGRg

Morrison and McKibbin, Phil yer boots, more LIV, eyes on Final Stage and return of the big tours
James Morrison's emotional Grand Final win and Tom McKibbin's Hong Kong romp kick off our latest episode, before we get legal with the latest Phil Mickelson news. There's more from LIV Golf via Martin Kaymer's search for a new Cleek, confirmation of the International Series promotion system and Patrick Reed's take on New York crowds, before we get into Final Stage Q-School with some names to look out for. Both main tours are back this week too so we chat Abu Dhabi and Mexico's million-yard fairways, then it's onto Fantasy Picks and Highest Bidder.Subscribe to our newsletter here: https://t.co/Jh8SujqGRg

Ryan French talks Monday qualifiers, cheating, charity, PGA Tour and more
With no DP World Tour or PGA Tour action this week, we take the opportunity to chat with Ryan French, the man behind Monday Q Info. He tells us about his fears over the direction the PGA Tour is heading, why weak fields create strong stories, and how the PGA Tour made him an offer he absolutely could refuse. Ryan also reveals how widespread cheating has become and asks why tours the world over are turning a blind eye, before taking on a particularly tough game of Highest Bidder.Subscribe to our newsletter here: https://t.co/Jh8SujqGRg

Fab Fleetwood, angry Mr Player, what next for Sergio, DPWT's Korea problem and latest card watch
We kick off the latest episode with reflections on Tommy Fleetwood's win in India where his putter got hot to deny Keita Nakajima, whose consolation prize is moving into the PGA Tour card slots. That's again a big focus of discussions as we enter the final week of the regular season with a big problem: several of those needing points can't even get a game. Before we get that far there are a couple of news items covered, including Sergio Garcia's Ryder Cup future and Gary Player putting the Ryder Cup right up there with the Masters as one of the worst events in golf. Subscribe to our newsletter here: https://t.co/Jh8SujqGRg

Penge hat-trick, aid worker wins Down Under, Tiger Woods surgery, LIV rumours, KFT grads, Delhi delight
We Sliced hosts begin by reflecting on very differing weekends and then it's into a Marco Penge hat-trick and why Max Greyserman shouldn't be written off as a serial loser. We discuss an aid worker winning in Australia, where there's another inspiring story among the also-rans, and dig into the Korn Ferry Tour graduates. Our news round-up begins with Tiger Woods' latest surgery and some more LIV Golf rumours, while we wonder whether Jon Rahm might rethink his schedule in 2026. Then it's a spin through this week's events including a warm welcome back to Delhi, fantasy picks, and an unsavoury Highest Bidder.Subscribe to our newsletter here: https://t.co/Jh8SujqGRg
