When Team Europe won the Ryder Cup in Rome two years ago, Rory McIlroy pledged that they would go to Bethpage in New York and win it away from home - something neither team had managed since 2012. Despite a torturous final day, as the Americans attempted to stage a miracle comeback, Team Europe held on to win.Chappers is live from New York alongside Iain Carter (The Chipping Forecast) the morning after the night before to reflect on one of the most dramatic, emotional, and controversial Ryder Cups in recent memory.
It's once in a lifetime, watching England win a World Cup on home soil - in any sport. The Red Roses have delivered history. The defeats in the last two World Cup finals are forgotten. What they will always remember is the noise of the 82,000 world record crowd at Twickenham, cheering for women's rugby. This was the grand finale in a summer of women's sport after the Lionesses lifted the Euros trophy. So, where will this momentum take us? Gabby is joined by Katy Daley-Mclean, England's World Cup winning captain from 2014, for a special bonus episode to talk it all over. Plus, Gabby tells us about meeting Ilona Maher!

Gabby & Mark celebrate the life of a true British sporting icon, “The Hitman” Ricky Hatton. A ferocious fighter who turned boxing into spectacle for an army of fans at a time when the sport seemed lost. A superstar and a proud Mancunian who you genuinely felt like you could go for a drink with and talk about the football, or Oasis. When he descended on Las Vegas to face Floyd Mayweather, it was as if half of the UK had followed him... His best night? Shocking the great Kostya Tszyu, 20 years ago, in front of a sold out Manchester Arena - Hatton stepped out of the shadows and we fell in love with him. In retirement he was open about struggles with his own mental health, helping countless people by being brave enough, outside the ring, to talk about it. Matchroom boss Eddie Hearn discusses the blueprint Hatton laid for the modern UK boxing superstar, Sky Boxing's Andy Clarke reflects on the public's adoration for him and trainer Adam Booth weighs in on his unique skillset.

When four-time Olympic gold medallist Michael Johnson set up the Grand Slam Track league it was meant to redefine athletics, finally making it popular outside the Olympics.

Join Mark and Paul as they chart the history of the World Cup, from its inception to modern day, exploring the politics behind why the England men's team have failed ever again to be the host nation of the most coveted prize in football, and why the FA are now more focussed on winning the competition than staging it.From doomed bids, bribes, conspiracy theories and hatred from other nations, this episode of How It All Played Out peels back the curtain to answer: Why does England never stage the men's World Cup?Remember to follow or subscribe and give us a 5 star review too!We'd love to hear from you!
