Sliced Golf Podcast

Dan Bradbury denied Casey Jarvis a hat-trick in Joburg before Akshay Bhatia denied Daniel Berger in the Arnold Palmer. But are they anchoring the putter and should long putters even be allowed? That's one of the many topics covered along with Rory McIlroy's fitness, Viktor Hovland's quest for something out of reach, and Jon Rahm's comments on extortion. There are some lighter matters too like whether The Players Championship is a major and how that might eventually look, a positive update on Andrea Pavan, confirmation that Luke Donald goes for a hat-trick, and our usual attempt to fit everything else pro golf into just one hour.

Casey Jarvis's second win in a row is where we begin this week's run around the world of professional golf, before we discuss what went wrong for Shane Lowry in the Cognizant, and how the pressure there might compare to the Ryder Cup. Once we've covered Chris Wood's domination of the MENA Tour it's time for a little quizzing as Sam showcases impressive knowledge of PGA Tour player profiles, before we cover some horrific news from the DP World Tour concerning Andrea Pavan. This week's golf schedule is a packed one so we whizz through what's changed in the make-up of a Bay Hill winner, what to expect in Joburg, and why Sam loves the sponsor invites list in Puerto Rico, before Ben finds a Jacob cracker in Highest Bidder.

Sliced is a little late this week and so was Casey Jarvis in capturing the Kenya Open, where Angel Ayora suffered another difficult Sunday. We discuss those two bright prospects before heading to LA to reflect on Jacob Bridgeman's narrow victory over Rory McIlroy and what his progress says about the current structure of the PGA Tour, which is reflected in the field for the Cognizant Classic. That and the SA Open are discussed in our trip around the world of golf, plus there's talk of Tiger's Masters prospects and Jon Rahm's DP World Tour fines saga and what that means for the Ryder Cup.

Anthony Kim's stunning comeback win in Australia features among our review of last week's golf, with Collin Morikawa's victory at Pebble Beach also covered in detail along with the also-rans: Scheffler, Fleetwood, and Mr Layup Sam Burns. There's a word on Charley Hull's mortgage and MJ Daffue's pronunication, before we breeze through news involving Henrik Stenson, Gary Player, Augusta, and Jordan Spieth. There's a preview of the DP World Tour's Kenya Open, a word on how much we both love Riviera and what it will demand, and then Tiger Woods gets a run-out in Highest Bidder.

Familiar faces won last week's events as Patrick Reed held firm in Qatar and Chris Gotterup capitalised on Hideki Matsuyama's driving woes to win in Phoenix. We're on hand to pick apart both, with a word too on Scheffler, Thorbjornsen, Hill and other nearly-men, before we get stuck into the big debates of the last few days: is The PLAYERS a major and should LIV have got a better deal from OWGR? There's plenty more to chew on, a bit of a South African theme, a word for our sponsors, and the usual Highest Bidder sign-off.
