I think we'd be biting off our nose to spite our face if we turned our back on this overseas company wanting to take over the running of the port of Lyttelton. Because this could be exactly the type of in-road to foreign investment that the government has been banging-on about but hasn't yet managed to pull off. Tell that to the unions, though. Which are all antse about executives from global port operator DP World being in Christchurch and wanting to do a deal to manage the port here for as long as 30 years. The port company and the port's owner - Christchurch City Holdings Limited - aren't saying much. Other than acknowledging speculation over what they describe as “a potential proposal” involving DP World and the port company. But the maritime union isn't holding back - making all the usual noises. Which you would expect it to make. Saying it would be a terrible move. Not just for Canterbury. But a bad move for the South Island and the whole country. It says profits would head overseas and it must not happen. But before you fall for all the noise, I want you to think about Fremantle, in Australia. Because it is just noise. Saying something should stay locally-run for the sake of it staying locally-run is noise. There's nothing the unions are saying about this that convinces me that the port company and the council which owns it shouldn't, at the very least, think about it. You might remember Fremantle from the 1987 Americas Cup. It's also a major port. A major port which has been operated by the same company that wants to run Lyttelton port for the past 20 years. And we need to be looking at Fremantle before swallowing all the rhetoric regarding this potential deal at Lyttelton. Because, in December last year, the company started work on an $18 million rail connection at the port. To move more freight by rail - from 22 percent to a third of the freight it handles. The company itself paid for this. What's more, it plans to have spent $1 billion upgrading port infrastructure in Australia by 2028. Which is exactly what it could end up doing here. And, if the port company and Christchurch City Holdings are in fact having these negotiations, then that's exactly the sort of stuff they should be talking about. They should be saying to DP World, if we agree to let you run Lyttelton port for the next 30 years, we want to see the same infrastructure investment you're making in Australia. Remembering too that Lyttelton needs to spend as much as $900 million on its expansion work. And, if they did manage to get that kind of commitment as part of any deal, then we'd be on to a winner. Not that I'm drinking all the Kool aid. Because there have been issues in Fremantle since DP World took over 20 years ago. The unions over there have accused it of putting profits ahead of jobs. But those kinds of accusations are made about the Lytelton port company already. The unions in Fremantle aren't happy about DP World wanting to use more automation. Of course they wouldn't be happy about it. Thing is, though, unions here are going to be concerned about all those things irrespective of who is running the show. So why not have an outfit with the money behind it running the port and investing in the port in a way we can only dream about? LISTEN ABOVESee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
Een dag eerder dan normaal en vers uit de baan hebben we allemaal wat lekkere zomer(avond)rondjes gelopen. De spelvorm bingo bango bongo geprobeerd, niet echt een succes. Wanneer beslis je of je rondje qualifying is, wanneer het geen officiële wedstrijd is? De PGA Tour is nog bezig tijdens onze uitzending. Op de DP World tour mooie dingen gezien van Luiten en Van Driel. Straka, Wiesberger en Steinlechner waren goed in eigen land op de mooie baan in Kitzbuhel, maar Kaneko wint het toernooi. De alternatieve prijs Red Bull Final 3 was voor Hoshino, hij mag lekker mee in een stuntvliegtuig, succes!LIV was in Busan in Korea op de Asiad Country Club. Het speelde moeilijk met smalle fairways en hoge rough en de grote jongens Bryson, DJ, Niemann en Gooch vochten om de overwinning. Rahm zat er zowaar een keer niet tussen en Niemann pakte zijn 8e overwinning. De Crushers wonnen als team.Shaun Norris wint in Japan, Besseling gedeeld 2e op de HotelPlanner tour, Dario Antonisse wint op de Pro Golf tour.In ons Jaarspel is het Super Sunday, we voorspellen voor het US Women's Open, LIV Andalucia, het KLM Open en The Memorial.Als je nog niemand hebt gekozen, geef het nog door, want dit is een dure week.Korte ronde: Tennis, Eindhoven bij de dames en heren landskampioen in de hoofdklasse, de leukste 3 podcasts over golf, minder?

Jeffrey Epstein's reach extended far beyond New York, Palm Beach, and the familiar circles of American finance and politics. Newly surfaced records show him probing for influence and opportunity across Latin America and the Caribbean, including Venezuela and Cuba, where he appeared to position himself as a connector for businessmen, political insiders, and power brokers operating in difficult, sensitive, or sanctions-adjacent environments. One major thread involves Epstein advising DP World's Sultan Ahmed bin Sulayem after Hugo Chávez nationalized Venezuelan ports, with Epstein suggesting Cuba as a possible backchannel route into Caracas. Another involves Venezuelan businessman Francisco D'Agostino and discussions about potential oil opportunities connected to PDVSA and the Orinoco River oil fields. D'Agostino says the proposed Venezuela trip never happened and no deal came together, but the records still show Epstein attempting to place himself near the intersection of energy, politics, and elite access.The Cuba material follows the same pattern. Epstein traveled there in 2003 with Ghislaine Maxwell and former Colombian president Andrés Pastrana, and Maxwell later claimed they met Fidel Castro, though there is no clear evidence that Epstein conducted business or political negotiations with Castro. Years later, Epstein funded a Cuban state-backed neuroscience conference in Havana through his connection to researcher Gino Yu, fitting his larger pattern of using science, academia, and intellectual circles as a legitimacy machine. The larger takeaway is not that every one of Epstein's approaches produced a successful deal; many appear to have stalled or gone nowhere. The real significance is that a convicted sex offender with a history of elite protection was still moving through circles connected to foreign governments, oil wealth, port infrastructure, sanctioned economies, and high-level intermediaries, raising the same old question: who kept allowing this man access to rooms where he clearly did not belong?to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:How Epstein explored Venezuelan deals, funded Cuban research | Miami Herald

Il Board of Peace di Donald Trump ha un prezzo d'ingresso: un miliardo di dollari per un seggio permanente. Lo statuto è stato firmato il 22 gennaio 2026 a Davos, alla presenza di una ventina di Paesi. L'accesso è su invito del presidente, la leadership a vita. L'organismo non ha mandato ONU né rappresentanza palestinese. Il Financial Times ha rivelato il 21 aprile che rappresentanti del Board hanno avuto colloqui con DP World, colosso logistico di Stato di Dubai, per affidarle le catene di approvvigionamento nella Striscia: magazzini, tracciamento, sicurezza, porto a Gaza o sulla costa egiziana, zona franca. Una bozza citata dal giornale descrive un «sistema di catena di approvvigionamento sicuro e tracciabile». Tre le fonti citate. Un portavoce di DP World ha dichiarato di non essere a conoscenza di trattative. La Casa Bianca non ha risposto. Lo stesso giorno Unione Europea, Nazioni Unite e Banca Mondiale hanno pubblicato la Rapid Damage and Needs Assessment: servono 71,4 miliardi di dollari per la ripresa nel decennio, 26,3 nei soli primi diciotto mesi. Oltre 371.000 abitazioni distrutte, ospedali per metà fuori servizio, economia contratta dell'ottantaquattro per cento. Il rapporto prescrive che la ricostruzione «sia guidata dai palestinesi» con trasferimento della governance all'Autorità palestinese. I due documenti non si parlano. Il Board of Peace progetta un «ecosistema economico guidato dal porto» con piattaforme commerciali private emiratine e zone franche. Il rapporto ONU-UE chiede libertà di movimento, finanza trasparente, governance responsabile verso i palestinesi. Nessun finanziamento promesso si è ancora materializzato. Dal cessate il fuoco di ottobre, le forze israeliane hanno ucciso 776 palestinesi, secondo il ministero della Salute di Gaza. La flotta verso Gaza? Oggi ad Augusta è in corso il carico: circa 55 barche al porto Xiphonia nel Siracusano attendono le ultime arrivate dalla Spagna. Il 23 aprile la flotta confluirà a Siracusa. La partenza verso Gaza è fissata per il 24 aprile. #LaSveglia per La NotiziaDiventa un supporter di questo podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/la-sveglia-di-giulio-cavalli--3269492/support.

Early purchase order visibility can be the difference between staying ahead of disruption and scrambling to catch up.In this episode, Mike Wiggins, Senior Vice President of Solution Design and Deployment, and Nayeli Valladares, Vice President of Solution Design and Deployment at DP World, discuss why early purchase order visibility matters more than ever as supply chains face disruption, sourcing shifts, and greater complexity. They explain how purchase orders can give teams an earlier read on demand, risk, and pressure across suppliers, carriers, brokers, and internal teams, leading to better forecasting and smarter planning around inventory, capacity, and transportation.They also explore how companies are using technology and closer coordination to make faster, more informed decisions. From tariff-driven sourcing changes and seasonal demand swings to stockout risk and communication gaps, Mike and Nayeli show how stronger visibility helps teams act sooner, reduce surprises, and build more resilient operations.Jump into the conversation:(00:00) Intro(02:23) Meet the DP World leaders(07:30) Why purchase orders matter more now(11:46) How early visibility creates an advantage(14:09) Why PO data is really a demand signal(16:51) Turning visibility into smarter control(18:56) Using KPIs and alerts to act sooner(20:25) How visibility helps prevent late orders(21:45) Why stronger PO collaboration matters(22:47) Aligning stakeholders from the start(29:43) The case for partner visibility(33:31) Where automation meets human judgmentAdditional Links & Resources:Connect with Mike Wiggins: mike.wiggins@dpworld.comConnect with Nayeli Valladares: https://www.linkedin.com/in/nayeli-valladares-29871285/Learn more about DP World: https://www.dpworld.com/enConnect with Karin Bursa: https://www.linkedin.com/in/karinbursa/Learn more about our hosts: https://supplychainnow.com/aboutLearn more about Supply Chain Now: https://supplychainnow.comWatch and listen to more Supply Chain Now episodes here: https://supplychainnow.com/program/supply-chain-nowSubscribe to Supply Chain Now on your favorite platform: https://supplychainnow.com/joinWork with us!

À Djibouti, le président sortant Omar Guelleh est en lice pour un 6e mandat, après la suppression par le parlement de la limite d'âge pour se présenter. Le pays organise le 10 avril la présidentielle. Face à lui, un seul concurrent : Mohamad Farah Samatar. Ce petit pays de la Corne de l'Afrique, dans une région instable, a fait de sa position stratégique un atout économique et diplomatique. Il est aussi un carrefour militaire. L'enjeu pour le pays est aujourd'hui de maintenir un équilibre délicat entre intérêts nationaux, régionaux et internationaux concurrents, souligne Sonia Le Gouriellec, maîtresse de conférences à l'Université catholique de Lille, spécialiste de la Corne de l'Afrique. RFI : Sonia Le Gouriellec, Ismaïl Omar Guelleh est au pouvoir depuis 1999, quel bilan faites-vous de ses 27 ans à la tête de l'État ? Sonia Le Gouriellec : Un bilan qu'à la fois Ismaïl Omar Guelleh et son gouvernement vont afficher, qui est une forte stabilité, c'est ce qui est vendu à l'extérieur. Mais cette stabilité implique aussi une forte surveillance sur le territoire national. Vous avez un modèle économique également qui est peu inclusif : Il n'y a pas d'industrie et c'est toute une élite qui va bénéficier de la rente qui arrive sur le territoire, mais il y a très peu d'intégration des marges sociales, une opposition quasi absente, qui pour une partie boycotte le scrutin et une grande partie surtout qui est en exil. En face de lui, pour cette élection, il y a Mohamed Farah Samatar, un ancien du parti au pouvoir. Comment est-ce que vous percevez cette candidature ? Un peu surprenante. D'une part parce que c'est une candidature d'un personnage qui n'est pas si connu que ça. Il est à la tête du Centre démocrate unifié, donc la CDU. Ce parti est quand même un parti d'opposition plutôt marginal et à la marge du système politique djiboutien. Donc, on a un peu l'impression que c'est une opposition pour la forme, pour que le président ne se présente pas seul, mais ça n'en fait pas pour autant un scrutin ouvert. Djibouti occupe une position géographique stratégique et contrôle avec le Yémen le détroit de Bab-el-Mandeb, qui donne accès à la mer Rouge, un point de transit important pour le commerce mondial. Est-ce que c'est sa principale ressource ? C'est sa principale ressource, effectivement. Le pays n'a pas beaucoup de ressources sur son sol. Par contre, c'est un cordon ombilical entre l'Éthiopie de 126 millions d'habitants et ce détroit stratégique : l'Éthiopie peut recevoir ses ressources par Djibouti et ce cordon ombilical. C'est tellement stratégique que Djibouti est entrée au cœur des routes de la soie maritime de la Chine. Et Djibouti accueille la première base militaire chinoise sur le continent depuis 2017. Donc effectivement, être sur ce détroit offre une place stratégique pour ce pays et ça permet à de nombreuses bases militaires également de venir s'installer pour pouvoir à la fois être en recul des pays du Golfe, ou à une époque être en recul de l'Afghanistan, du Pakistan d'où pouvaient fuir des terroristes, ce qui en avait fait pour les États-Unis une base importante et stratégique. Donc, Djibouti a su monnayer cet emplacement stratégique. Alors, je ne sais pas si je dois dire que Djibouti a su monnayer, le gouvernement djiboutien a su monnayer ou Ismaïl Omar Guelleh, puisque la politique étrangère est très personnalisée autour de la personnalité d'Ismaïl Omar Guelleh. Comment Djibouti est-il impacté dans l'actuel conflit au Moyen-Orient ? Alors c'est vrai qu'on en parle peu. L'Iran a dit qu'ils allaient potentiellement attaquer le Bab-el-Mandeb. Donc après avoir bloqué le détroit d'Ormuz, on voit que c'est un autre axe stratégique et à partir de là, il y a eu des attaques Houthis, mais sur Israël. Les Houthis qui sont alliés de l'Iran… Tout à fait. Alors ce que je trouve assez intéressant, c'est que très rapidement, comme il y a 30 kilomètres qui séparent le Yémen de Djibouti, il y a une base américaine, française, c'est une autoroute maritime majeure, donc je me suis dit : ils vont tenter aussi de bloquer cela. Et j'ai l'impression qu'on peut presque dire que finalement les Chinois nous protègent puisque la présence chinoise, j'imagine, dissuade un petit peu quand même les Iraniens et les Houthis de déstabiliser Djibouti. D'autres États du Golfe affichent leur ambition d'étendre leur influence en Afrique de l'Est, notamment les Émirats arabes unis. Comment est-ce que Djibouti compose avec cette concurrence ? Les pays du Golfe font un retour en quelque sorte, mais ont toujours été présents dans la Corne de l'Afrique, que ce soit à Djibouti dès l'indépendance, en 77, avec un gros soutien des Saoudiens. Mais c'est vrai que les Émirats arabes unis et l'Arabie saoudite s'affrontent indirectement au Soudan. Les Émirats arabes unis sont très proches du président Abiy Ahmed en Éthiopie… Djibouti essaye de composer avec tout cela. Avec parfois un peu de maladresse puisqu'en 2018, le gouvernement djiboutien a nationalisé le port qu'avait modernisé DP World, la société émiratie, et est en procès depuis avec les Émirats arabes unis, et les Émirats et DP World se sont installés à Berbera au Somaliland. On voit que ces derniers mois, ces dernières années, toutes les manœuvres autour de la reconnaissance du Somaliland sont aussi clairement soutenues par une manœuvre des Émirats arabes unis. Donc on voit que Djibouti est un petit peu étranglé finalement, dans une région particulièrement instable, avec de nombreuses influences étrangères des pays du Golfe, mais aussi de la Chine, des États-Unis, on parle de la Russie, on parle également de l'Iran… Donc c'est un enjeu aussi pour le président qui va se représenter de parvenir à garder Djibouti stable. Et dans une période où va se jouer la succession du président Ismaïl Omar Guelleh, dans les années qui viennent, ça va être tout l'enjeu, finalement, de la situation actuelle.

We kick off this episode by heading north, where DP World is expanding its Canadian supply chain presence with a brand-new freight forwarding office in Quebec. This strategic expansion arrives just as the Montreal Port Authority prepares to build a massive terminal that will more than double the region's container capacity. Next, we dive into the maritime defense sector as a South Korean-owned shipyard in Philadelphia secures its very first U.S. Navy contract since being acquired in 2024. Hanwha Defense USA will partner with a naval design firm to develop agile supply vessels that can refuel and rearm combat ships directly at sea. Finally, the battle over a massive railway merger is heating up as a Union Pacific executive fires back at Canadian National over disputed traffic data. UP accuses its rival of making inaccurate claims about the merger's projected impact, pointing out that both companies actually used the exact same expert for their respective traffic studies.

MichaelAaron Flicker and Richard Shotton unpack how DP World helped shift a global shipping standard that no one had questioned for nearly a century. By challenging status quo bias and rallying competitors around a shared change from −18°C to −15°C, the campaign cut emissions, reduced costs, and reshaped an entire industry.

Dan Bradbury van Engeland het sy tweede Johannesburg Ope met een hou gewen en 'n derde DP World-toertitel by die Houghton Gholfklub verower. Die 26-jarige was vyf houe agter, maar het ingehaal om die titel op 17 onder baansyfer op 65 te verower. Casey Jarvis van Suid-Afrika, wat wou aansluit by die elitegroep met drie agtereenvolgende DP World-toeroorwinnings, het gelykop tweede saam met Brandon Robinson-Thompson van Engeland geëindig. Bradbury sê hy het nie verwag het om te wen nie:

AgendaMark Zuckerberg faces jury in landmark trial over alleged youth harm linked to social mediaThe lawsuit, K.G.M. v. Meta Platforms, Inc., et al., was filed by a 20-year-old California woman identified by her initials. She alleges that Meta and other tech companies deliberately engineered their platforms to hook young users, contributing to her depression and suicidal thoughts, and seeks to hold them accountable.Regarding Instagram's enforcement efforts, plaintiffs asked whether Meta removed all 4 million under-13 users the company had identified on the platform in 2018. Zuckerberg responded that while the company did not remove all of them, it had implemented tools to detect and address underage accounts and was working to improve those systems.According to reports, Zuckerberg has not directly answered the central question of the case: whether Instagram is addictive. The plaintiff's attorney, Mark Lanier, asked if people tend to use something more if it's addictive. “I'm not sure what to say to that,” Zuckerberg said. “I don't think that applies here.”He said he believes in the “basic assumption” that “if something is valuable, people will use it more because it's useful to them.”When he was asked about his compensation, Zuckerberg said he has pledged to give “almost all” of his money to charity, focusing on scientific research. Lanier asked him how much money he has pledged to victims impacted by social media, to which Zuckerberg replied, “I disagree with the characterization of your question.”Zuckerberg's courthouse entourage showed up in Meta Ray-BansMeta Adding Facial Recognition to Its Smart Glasses That Identifies People in Real Time, Hoping the Public Is Too Distracted by Political Turmoil to Care MMApple sued by West Virginia for alleged failure to stop child sexual abuse material on iCloud, iOS devicesSpaceX said to weigh dual-class IPO shares to empower MuskMacron Blasts Social Media's Free Speech Defense as ‘Bullshit'The stupid (ESG edition)Goldman Sachs to Drop D.E.I. Criteria for Board Members MMThe move would be the Wall Street firm's latest retreat from diversity mandates that its chief executive, David Solomon, had once made a priority.The decision is a result of a deal that Goldman struck with the National Legal and Policy Center, a conservative nonprofit group that has been pressuring numerous companies to drop diversity, equity and inclusion mandates, the people said.As part of its agreement with Goldman, the National Legal and Policy Center, which has a small investment in the bank, withdrew a shareholder proposal demanding that diversity criteria for the board be dropped.In March 2019, Mr. Solomon, his top deputy John Waldron and the firm's chief financial officer at the time, Stephen M. Scherr, declared diversity and inclusion “a top priority.”“When we unite around a common goal, we make progress together,” the men wrote in an email to the staff. They said they would “improve each year” toward goals that included a new recruiting class comprising “50 percent women, 11 percent Black professionals and 14 percent Hispanic/Latino professionals in the Americas, and 9 percent Black professionals in the U.K.”The next year, Mr. Solomon said Goldman would no longer take a company public in the United States or Europe unless it had at least one “diverse” board member. By 2021, a company would need at least two diverse board members in order for Goldman to agree to work on its initial public offering.Inspire Investing CEO: Nike's DEI Is A Legal Liability, Shareholders Coming For AnswersNike's DEI fight is no longer just a social media "culture war" argument.

The defining shift was who got the job. Among incoming CEOs, 84% were serving in their first enterprise CEO role, reversing a multi-year tilt toward leaders with prior public-company experience.As recently as 2024, more than one in five new CEOs had already led a public company. That share fell sharply in 2025. Of the 140 first-time CEOs appointed, 116 had no prior enterprise CEO experience. Two-thirds had never served on a public company board, meaning many are stepping into the role without prior exposure to shareholder oversight or public company governance.CEO hopefuls have a new rival for the top job: their own board directorsAppointing board directors as CEOs was once a “break glass in case of emergency” strategy reserved for scandal, illness, or sudden resignation. While it remains a minority path compared with traditional internal promotions, it is no longer an anomaly.New data from Spencer Stuart highlights the shift. Of the 168 new S&P 1500 chief executives appointed in 2025, the highest annual total since 2010, 19 were drawn from their own company boards, the most since 2020. Spencer Stuart classifies directors as outsiders because they lack day-to-day operating responsibility. Even so, more boards are turning to them.Wall Street banks are paying their CEOs like it's 2006 againMorgan Stanley CEO Ted Pick's pay rises 32% to $45mlnBank of America Lifts Moynihan's Pay 17% to $41 Million for 2025Barclays Ceo Pay Hike: Barclays lifts CEO Venkatakrishnan's pay to over £15 million as bonus pool risesCitigroup bumps CEO Jane Fraser's pay to record $59mBro Culture (The Epstein Edition)Thomas Pritzker, Named in Epstein Files, Retires as Hyatt Executive ChairmanTom Pritzker Retires as Executive Chairman of Hyatt After 22 Years of Service and Will Not Stand for Reelection to Board of DirectorsThe Board has appointed Mark S. Hoplamazian, Hyatt's President and Chief Executive Officer, to succeed Mr. Pritzker as Chairman of the Board“Tom's leadership has been instrumental in shaping Hyatt's strategy and long-term growth, and we thank him for his service and dedication to Hyatt,” said Richard Tuttle, Chair of the Board's Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee. “The Board has engaged in thoughtful succession planning, and we are confident that Mark's deep knowledge of Hyatt's business, strong relationships with owners and colleagues, and proven track record as CEO of nearly two decades positions him well to serve as Chairman and continue driving Hyatt's long-term success.”In a letter to the Hyatt Hotels' Board of Directors, Tom Pritzker wrote, “My job and responsibility is to provide good stewardship. That is important to me. Good stewardship includes ensuring a proper transition at Hyatt. Following discussions with my fellow Board members, I have decided, after serving as Executive Chairman since 2004, and with the company in a strong position, that now is the right time for me to retire from Hyatt. Good stewardship also means protecting Hyatt, particularly in the context of my association with Jeffrey Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell, which I deeply regret. I exercised terrible judgment in maintaining contact with them, and there is no excuse for failing to distance myself sooner. I condemn the actions and the harm caused by Epstein and Maxwell, and I feel deep sorrow for the pain they inflicted on their victims.”Dubai's DP World replaces CEO after Epstein links emergeDubai's DP World announced Essa Kazim was the new chairman of its board of directors and Yuvraj Narayan was its new group chief executive officer, replacing Sultan Ahmed bin Sulayem.Sulayem had been the CEO of Dubai's largest port operator since 2016 and chairman since 2007.DOJ records showed years of exchanges with Epstein, but Sulayem has not been accused of any criminal wrongdoing.Casey Wasserman to sell talent agency following Jefferey Epstein controversyCasey Wasserman has confirmed that he has started the process of selling his talent agency after it was uncovered that he had ties with Jefferey Epstein. The announcement comes as artists began to leave the agency after it was uncovered that the Wasserman CEO had extensive ties with Jeffrey Epstein and had sent flirtatious emails to Ghislaine Maxwell. Despite denying that he had any personal or business ties with either, Wasserman sent an apology to the 4,000 employees who work at his sports marketing and talent agency, confirming that he would be stepping down from the company. He said: “I'm deeply sorry that my past personal mistakes have caused you so much discomfort […] It's not fair to you, and it's not fair to the clients and partners we represent so vigorously and care so deeply about.”Former Victoria's Secret CEO Les Wexner testifies in House Epstein investigationThe billionaire behind the retail empire that once blanketed shopping malls with names such as Victoria's Secret and Abercrombie & Fitch told members of Congress on Wednesday that he was “duped by a world-class con man” — close financial adviser Jeffrey Epstein. Les Wexner also denied knowing about the late sex offender's crimes or participating in Epstein's abuse of girls and young women.“I was naive, foolish, and gullible to put any trust in Jeffrey Epstein. He was a con man. And while I was conned, I have done nothing wrong and have nothing to hide.”Wexner described himself to the lawmakers as a philanthropist, community builder and grandfather who always strove “to live my life in an ethical manner in line with my moral compass,” according to the statement.Top Goldman Sachs lawyer Kathy Ruemmler to resign over Epstein linksThe latest Justice Department release revealed a trove of communication between the two, including about potential jobs, her romantic life and gifts Epstein had given her.

Once they were standing, he made a "joke" to the effect of: "Thank you! Just so the ICE agents [in the building] know [who you are]."He reportedly made a follow-up "callback" later in the presentation, suggesting that ICE agents were also monitoring those who hadn't yet used a specific new Slackbot tool.And another joke about ICE surveilling employee travel: when there are literally employees afraid to travel for work due to current situationSalesforce famously promotes a culture of "Ohana" (family) and equality.Parker Harris (Cofounder): In a follow-up meeting, Harris reportedly called the jokes a "violation of the Code of Conduct" and even noted they could be considered a "fireable offense" for a typical employee.Rob Seaman (Slack GM): The head of the Salesforce-owned platform Slack sent a memo to staff stating he "cannot defend or explain" the jokes and that they did not align with his values.Salesforce employees call on CEO Benioff to cancel ICE ‘opportunities'Elon Musk says Anthropic's philosopher has no stake in the future because she doesn't have kidsPalantir, Which Is Powering ICE, Says Immigration Crackdown May Hurt Hiring MMFrom 10-K filed 2 days ago: “if we are not able to recruit, hire, or retain the talent we need because of increased regulation of immigration or work visas … it could be more difficult to staff our personnel on customer engagements and could increase our costs … Additionally, laws and regulations, such as restrictive immigration laws, may limit our ability to recruit outside of the United States ...

Hier mardi, « les universités sénégalaises étaient paralysées par une grève » qui devrait se poursuivre ce mercredi et demain, relève Afrik.com. Un mouvement qui intervient « après la mort de l'étudiant Abdoulaye Ba. » C'était il y a 10 jours sur le campus. Ce décès tragique « a transformé des revendications au départ sociales en une mobilisation nationale pour la vérité et la justice », pointe le site panafricain. De plus, poursuit-il, « l'arrestation de plusieurs leaders étudiants alimente la colère sur les campus. Entre tensions sécuritaires et retards de bourses, la crise universitaire atteint un niveau inédit ». « Chute mortelle » Hier, rebondissement dans l'enquête sur la mort de l'étudiant, relate notamment Walf Quotidien : « Après le point de presse conjoint des ministres (Intérieur, Justice, Enseignement supérieur et Forces armées), le procureur de la République du tribunal de grande instance de Dakar a pris le relais. Face à la presse, Ibrahima Ndoye a écarté la thèse de la torture subie par Abdoulaye Ba, soutenue par ses camarades étudiants : "Abdoulaye Ba n'a pas été battu. Il n'y a pas eu de contact physique entre lui et les forces de défense et de sécurité. Sa mort résulte d'une chute du quatrième étage", a-t-il expliqué ». « Confronté aux flammes et aux fumées qui commençaient à l'asphyxier, précise le site Senego, Abdoulaye Ba aurait pris la décision dramatique de sauter, "atterrissant sur son côté gauche". Et c'est ce qui explique, selon le procureur, les résultats dommageables constatés par le médecin légiste sur le corps du défunt. L'enquête judiciaire confié par la sûreté urbaine et la division des investigations criminelles se poursuit afin d'établir toutes les responsabilités sur cette mort. Certains de ses camarades de chambre ont été auditionnés afin de confirmer les circonstances de l'accident ». « La chute mortelle », titre sobrement Le Soleil, qui rapporte également les conclusions du procureur. Négociations… Cette version des faits va-t-elle calmer la colère estudiantine ? Ce qui est sûr, c'est que les autorités jouent l'apaisement. « À la suite des tensions enregistrées ces derniers jours, l'Université Cheikh Anta Diop de Dakar a engagé des concertations avec les parties prenantes, note Walf Quotidien, "en vue de trouver une issue durable" à la crise qui secoue le campus. Ces discussions, initiées par le rectorat, réunissent les partenaires sociaux et les autorités universitaires. L'objectif est d'apaiser le climat social, de rétablir la sérénité au sein de l'institution et de garantir la continuité des enseignements ». Walf qui relève également les exigences de l'UNSAS, l'Union nationale des syndicats autonomes du Sénégal, et de la CSA, la Confédération des syndicats autonomes : « Que toute la lumière soit faite sur les circonstance de la mort d'Abdoulaye Ba » et que « le pouvoir actuel fasse des réformes dans l'enseignement supérieur ». Les réseaux africains de Jeffrey Epstein À lire également ce matin dans la presse, cette enquête du Monde Afrique sur les réseaux africains de Jeffrey Epstein… « Du Sénégal à la Côte d'Ivoire en passant par le Maroc ou encore le Rwanda, l'ombre du criminel sexuel s'est étendue en Afrique, pointe le journal. Les trois millions de documents rendus publics par la justice américaine montrent que le criminel sexuel et homme d'affaires américain, mort en 2019, a appliqué sur le continent la même recette qu'ailleurs dans le monde pour étancher sa soif de pouvoir. Un écosystème où s'entremêlaient relations avec les puissants, affaires parfois troubles et prédation sexuelle ». Et Le Monde Afrique de citer plusieurs personnalités : Karim Wade, qui aurait servi d'intermédiaire pour faciliter les affaires d'Epstein ; l'Emirati Sultan Ahmed Ben Soulayem, à la tête du géant portuaire DP World, très influent en Afrique, et qui a organisé à plusieurs reprises des séjours de Jeffrey Epstein sur le continent ; ou encore, Nina Keita, mannequin, ex-conseillère ministérielle et nièce du président ivoirien Alassane Ouattara. « Partout où il est passé, le multimillionnaire a tenté de faire des affaires, relève encore Le Monde Afrique. Comme en juin 2015 au Zimbabwe, où il a cherché, en vain, à profiter du marasme financier du pays pour "mettre en place un nouveau système financier" ; ou encore, en Libye, où à l'aube de la chute de Kadhafi, l'homme d'affaires a lorgné sur les quelque 80 milliards de dollars de fonds du régime gelés à l'étranger. Son objectif : restituer ces fonds gelés au nouveau pouvoir libyen moyennant commission. Un échec ».

In today's episode, we discuss how investors are cutting ties with DP World following revelations about the CEO's relationship with Jeffrey Epstein. Two major funds have already suspended capital deployment until the company addresses the situation. Meanwhile, a legal dispute over port terminals in Panama is escalating, with CK Hutchison threatening action against Maersk and local authorities. The conflict arose after Panama's Supreme Court voided contracts for strategic terminals at both ends of the canal. Finally, we look at a surge in cargo crimes across North American freight lanes, including cyber-assisted thefts of high-value goods. Law enforcement agencies have also seized record amounts of narcotics hidden in commercial shipments at the border.

This year’s season opener is being played in the home country of the league’s $1 trillion owner, the Saudi Public Investment Fund. LIV Golf will feature some of golf’s top names like Americans Bryson DeChambeau and Phil Mickelson, Spain’s Jon Rahm and Sergio Garcia, and Australia’s Cam Smith. Each is a major championship winner. Differentiating themselves from the PGA Tour, LIV Golf starts each round at the same time for all players. With 57 golfers in the field, they are positioned at each of the 18 tee boxes as a shotgun start begins play. The daily playing conditions are identical for all golfers. I really do like that concept. You’ll still find LIV Golf’s unique 4-player team concept this season, too. A significant pool of prize money is paid to the top three golf teams which have the lowest composite scores at the conclusion of each tournament. This encourages every golfer – from first to last place – to try harder to help their team’s score. You will continue to hear music being played over loud speakers around the course during play. It doesn’t seem to affect the players one way or the other. LIV Golf seems to think the music turns their golf tournament into a party for the fans. SwampSwami Rant ALERT! LIV Golf’s US TV viewers must play “FOX Sports Whack-a-Mole” to watch the action this season The 14 LIV Golf events in 2026 (with only four being played in the US) will be televised again by FOX Sports. Good luck trying to find the action on television from day to day. Today’s first round in Saudi Arabia began on FS1. Two hours later, viewers were told to migrate over to FS2 to continue watching the golf action. Note to LIV Golf. Not many US cable providers carry FS2 unless you pay for the highest price option. I don’t. To watch LIV Golf on television again this year, you will need a combination of the following channel options from day-to-day during their tournaments: Your local FOX TV affiliate FS1 FS2 Fox Business Network Fox Sports App (internet) The same issues occurred last year. Sadly, it is being repeated in 2026. The US channel-surfing options might be more tolerable if LIV would simply offer a simulcast of the entire televised round via an internet (perhaps on a LIV Golf app?) as a service to viewers. LIV Golf needs the ratings support, so please make viewing as easy as possible. This maddening game of “Fox Sports Whack-a-Mole” is a major pain for American golf fans. This should have been addressed and resolved during the lengthy off-season. These golfers said “Goodbye to LIV” In late December, it was five-time golf major champion Brooks Koepka walking out of LIV Golf’s door as he has announced a decision to rejoin the PGA Tour. Last week, former Masters champion Patrick Reed announced that he was no longer under contract with LIV Golf for 2026. He wants to return to the PGA Tour just like Brooks Koepka. Keep in mind that LIV Golf doled out over $150 million in signing bonuses – just to snare both Brooks Koepka and Patrick Reed less than four years ago. Koepka worked a deal with the PGA Tour and competed at last week’s stop in San Diego. Patrick Reed’s defection from LIV Golf came just one week before his former LIV Golf four-player team called the 4 Aces was set to start the 2026 golf season. That left LIV Golf’s 4 Aces a card short today. Team captain Dustin Johnson and Belgium’s Thomas Detry and Thomas Pieters scrambled to find a sub to take Patrick Reed’s spot in this week’s season opening event. Reed pocketed over $42 million in tournament earnings over his four seasons with LIV Golf starting in 2022. That money was in addition to his initial signing bonus. The PGA Tour will not allow Patrick Reed to return for at least 12 months after his last appearance in a LIV Golf event (August, 2025). In the meantime, Patrick Reed quickly scored a victory ten days ago while playing on the DP World (formerly European) Tour. He plans to enter several more European events this spring and summer until he is cleared to return to the PGA Tour in late summer. Na, Na, Na, Na…Hey, Hey, Hey…The LIV story…of Kevin Na Five-time PGA Tour winner Kevin Na also took the leap to LIV Golf in June, 2022. The 42-year old Na had quietly amassed $38 million in PGA Tour earnings over his 17-year career. Kevin Na was made team captain of LIV Golf’s Iron Heads Golf Club four-man team in 2022. He did not win a tournament at LIV Golf but still managed to pocketed more than $11 million in four seasons. Surprisingly, South Korean-born Kevin Na was recently booted off of his own LIV golf team! He was replaced with journeyman PGA golfer Ben An. The LIV Golf team then renamed itself the “Korean Golf Club” for 2026. Ironically, one of the team’s current players is New Zealand citizen Danny Lee. Lee was born in South Korea. His family moved to New Zealand when he was eight years old. Upon getting booted from LIV Golf, Kevin Na has also requested to be allowed back onto the PGA Tour. His reinstatement status has not been announced. Pat Perez packed-up his LIV Golf bag, too Former LIV golfer Pat Perez (a three-time PGA Tour winner) is also seeking his PGA Tour reinstatement. The 49-year old Perez was cut by LIV Golf after a dismal 2024 season but returned as their on-course television announcer in 2025. Like Kevin Na, Pat Perez is waiting to hear when he will be allowed to tee-it up again on the PGA Tour. Perez will turn 50 in March and may opt to play on the PGA Champions (senior) Tour at some point. The biggest question remains – Will LIV’s top draw Bryson DeChambeau stay or go after this season? The charismatic 32-year old Bryson DeChambeau won the US Amateur title and later added two US Open major championships to his trophy case. In 2022, DeChambeau pocketed a reported $125 million signing bonus from LIV Golf to join the fledgling golf tour. He has earned another $50 million in tournament winnings during his four seasons playing for LIV Golf. Bryson DeChambeau has worked hard to build his own personal brand. His YouTube channel attracts millions of mostly younger viewers. DeChambeau’s popularity has been one of the few bright spots for the LIV Golf brand. His four-man LIV Golf team called the Crushers is a fan favorite, too. Bryson DeChambeau’s contract with LIV Golf will expire at the end of the tour’s 2026 golf season this August. Word has it that he is asking for upwards of $500 million to sign a contract extension to remain with the Saudi-backed golf group. LIV Golf didn’t help matters if they wanted DeChambeau to stick around One recent change for the 2026 LIV Golf season has not set well with the popular Bryson DeChambeau. LIV (which is “54” in Roman numerals) played 54-hole golf tournaments over three days in previous years. This helped to differentiate the league from the PGA Tour’s 72-hole four-day events. A stodgy organization calling itself “Official World Golf Rankings” assigns numerical rankings to professional golfers. Their board of directors was unwilling to grant any points to top finishers for the LIV Golf for the past four years due to its 54-hole events. That issue has been a sore spot for LIV golfers since the league’s first season in 2022. The OWGR rankings are used to determine which golfers receive invitations to play in some of golf’s four major events. The LIV golfers have earned zero ranking points the past four years. Top players keep falling down the world rankings list. LIV’s Jon Rahm was ranked #1 at the time he signed with LIV Golf three years ago. Despite winning twice over the past three seasons and rarely finishing out of the top ten, Jon Rahm had dropped all the way to #96 in World Golf Rankings this week. To appease the overlords of rankings, LIV Golf will start playing 72-hole events this season. The World Ranking body announced Tuesday that LIV Golf’s top ten weekly finishers will now be awarded points for the new 72-hole events. Bryson DeChambeau spoke up recently that the initial premise for LIV Golf was to be different than the PGA Tour. He had been in favor of maintaining the 54-hole tournaments to bring more focus and urgency to golfers on the course each day. “It’s definitely changed away from what we had been initially told it was going to be,” said DeChambeau. He added, “We didn’t sign-up to play 72 (holes).” What happens if Bryson DeChambeau decides to leave LIV Golf after this season? DeChambeau is one of the league’s biggest draws. His enthusiastic personality and famous length off the tee has been a fan magnet for LIV Golf. The PGA Tour won’t admit it publicly, but they would love to see Bryson DeChambeau return to help put the proverbial nail into LIV Golf’s coffin. Yes, LIV Golf would still have former World #1 golfer Jon Rahm under contract as its best player. Australia’s Cam Smith and 53-year old Phil Mickelson still have plenty of LIV fans, too. Though LIV Golf has lost an estimated $2 billion during its first four seasons, the Saudi Public Investment Fund seems quite proud of simply owning a worldwide golf league. Oil money literally flows out of the ground and right into their bank to replace the massive losses of LIV Golf. The PGA Tour has started to lure several of its more popular golfers by offering a more family-friendly US-based tour. LIV Golf’s far-flung worldwide events have made it difficult on golfers with young families like Brooks Koepka and Patrick Reed. The reputation of LIV Golf is starting to sink as more top golfers bail-out and return to the PGA Tour. The loss of Bryson DeChambeau after the 2026 LIV Golf season would be quite difficult to overcome. This would seem to be a great time for LIV Golf to broker a peace deal with the PGA Tour. Allow golfers on both pro tours a chance to participate in a limited number of events on either tour every year. While you’re at it, please fix the “Fox Sports Whack-a-Mole” LIV Golf TV coverage, too! The post Season 5 Begins – Is this Goodbye to LIV? appeared first on SwampSwamiSports.com.
Mi-janvier, la Somalie, en conflit diplomatique avec les Émirats arabes unis, a annoncé annuler tous les accords avec Abou Dhabi. Parmi eux, Mogadiscio vise notamment le contrat d'exploitation du port de Berbera, opéré par DP World au Somaliland. Hargeisa et l'opérateur émirien ont réfuté la compétence de Mogadiscio sur ce port. Un port au cœur d'enjeux croisés. Cette sortie de Mogadiscio est la dernière en date d'une longue série. En 2024 déjà, un accord avec l'Éthiopie devant lui permettre un accès à la mer suscitait une levée de boucliers de la part de la Somalie. À lire aussiL'Éthiopie signe un accord avec le Somaliland pour avoir accès à la mer Pour Yann Alix, spécialiste des infrastructures portuaires africaines, ces frictions révèlent l'enjeu stratégique du port de Berbera : « Aujourd'hui, dans la lecture géopolitique que l'on peut faire sur l'exploitation des trafics de conteneurs dans la Corne d'or, c'est cette mise en avant, évidemment, de l'importance géostratégique et géoéconomique des terminaux à conteneurs dans le fonctionnement socio-économique des nations et de toute la Corne d'or. » Le gérant de la fondation Sefacil rappelle : « On l'avait déjà vu avec Djibouti et le litige qu'ils avaient avec DP World. Et donc effectivement, ce sont des assets stratégiques qui sont de plus en plus exposés, finalement, à la turbulence géopolitique du monde que l'on vit aujourd'hui. » Berbera suscite l'intérêt du fait notamment de sa position géographique, aux portes du canal de Suez. « Berbera est comme un balcon sur un énorme corridor maritime, ce balcon sur le Bab el-Mandeb est incontournable », décrit Ali Hojeij, avocat d'affaires, spécialiste des infrastructures portuaires en Afrique. Berbera, en chiffres, c'est aujourd'hui « à peu près 1 050 mètres de quais, dont un nouveau quai conteneur de 400 mètres, un tirant d'eau de 17 mètres, et une capacité annuelle moyenne d'EVP, donc pour les conteneurs, on est aujourd'hui à 500 000 en moyenne ». À lire aussiSomaliland: le port de Berbera au cœur des tensions entre la Somalie et les Émirats arabes unis DP World s'est engagé à investir 440 millions de dollars Depuis sa prise opérationnelle en 2017, DP World revendique avoir fait progresser le volume de cargo de 35 %. Le Somaliland importe l'essentiel de sa consommation par Berbera : principalement des produits alimentaires, des produits pétroliers, des matériaux de construction et tous types de machines et d'équipements. Un accès vital pour son approvisionnement, mais également stratégique pour l'entrée des devises. Spécificité : Berbera s'est imposé dans la région sur le segment de l'exportation de bétail sur pied, c'est-à-dire moutons, chèvres et vaches, mais aussi chameaux. « Il a une capacité de bétail qui est aujourd'hui d'environ 4 millions de têtes par an pour les terminaux spécialisés. Et si on observe au-delà de la question bétail, qui, en effet, est essentielle non seulement pour le Somaliland, mais aussi pour l'hinterland de l'Éthiopie, on voit de manière plus globale en termes de performance que les ports de Berbera et de Djibouti, bien sûr, qui est plus grand que celui de Berbera, sont quand même devant Mombasa », souligne Ali Hojeij. En 2024, l'exportation a rapporté plus d'un demi-milliard de dollars au Somaliland, en augmentation de 20 % sur un an. Pour tenir le rythme, à terme, DP World s'est engagé à investir 440 millions de dollars dans les infrastructures portuaires de Berbera.

When demand is high, the real advantage isn't doing more - it's choosing better. This episode explores a consultative selling approach and how disciplined sales leaders improve performance by focusing on the sales funnel they already have. In this episode, Harry Kendlbacher sits down with Hans van der Eijk, SVP Commercial Western Europe at DP World, to unpack how modern sales leaders navigate high inbound demand without sacrificing focus, margins, or credibility. You'll hear how consultative selling replaces activity-driven selling, why not every RFQ deserves pursuit, and how disciplined sales strategy leads to stronger win rates in complex B2B environments.
Jayden Schaper van Suid-Afrika het die Amerikaner Ryan Gerard in 'n uitspeelwedstryd geklop om die Mauritius Ope te wen. Albei spelers het baansyfer op die eerste uitspeelputjie behaal, maar Schaper het 'n verstommende arend op die tweede uitspeelputjie geslaan om sy tweede DP World-toertitel te verower. Casey Jarvis van Suid-Afrika het derde geëindig. Schaper sê dit was die beste paar weke van sy loopbaan, na sy Alfred Dunhill-kampioenskaptriomf:
Jayden Schaper van Suid-Afrika het met 'n arend in 'n uitspeelwedstryd geslaag om sy landgenoot en verdedigende kampioen Shaun Norris te verslaan en die Alfred Dunhill-kampioenskap te wen. Die paar was gelykop op 16 onder nadat die toernooi tot 54 putjies verminder is, maar dit was Schaper wat 'n eerste DP World-toer-oorwinning op die eerste uitspeelputjie behaal het. Die Spanjaard Eugenio Chacarra was derde. Schaper sê die oorwinning was spesiaal:
We begin with the tragic UPS cargo jet crash near Worldport in Louisville, UPS's critical global hub, which resulted in at least nine confirmed fatalities and exposed the fragility of single-point logistics assets. This immediate physical disruption led UPS to cancel initial express and deferred operations and suspend the money-back guarantee for all US packages, even as the NTSB worked quickly to recover the flight recorders. Following the accident, night sort operations at Worldport partially resumed to enable next-day air deliveries, though delivery commitments were relaxed for Thursday. Wall Street severely reacted to 3PL RXO's Q3 earnings report, sending the stock plummeting over 14% pre-market after the company reported adjusted net income of just $2 million compared to $7 million last year and missed analyst estimates on EPS. RXO's CEO cited a "deadly combination" of rising truckload capacity costs alongside persistently weak demand, forcing the company to launch aggressive new cost initiatives targeting over $30 million in savings. Broader market data confirms this complex landscape, revealing a persistent trucking paradox where Q3 national shipment volumes fell 2.9% but shipper spending paradoxically increased 2% quarter-over-quarter, suggesting that capacity is leaving the market faster than demand is declining. This divergence grants remaining carriers unexpected pricing power, while regional differences were severe, including a massive 15.7% volume drop in the Southwest amplified by stricter DOT English language proficiency rules. Further underscoring the market weakness, recent CarrierSource data shows shipper search activity for trucking capacity fell to its lowest point in over a month, driven by macroeconomic uncertainty and production slowdowns. In response to this volatility, global terminal operator DP World is focusing on resilient supply chains by leveraging its vast network across 78 countries and strategically investing in technology, particularly AI and predictive tools. DP World is offering adaptive solutions such as deploying "pop-up warehouses" for temporary surge capacity in locations like Olive Branch, Mississippi, and Miami, and strategically using alternative gateways like Prince Rupert and Vancouver for fast rail access into the US Midwest and Northeast. These strategies emphasize building options and flexibility into the network to navigate volatility, whether it stems from physical crashes or financial squeezes. Learn more about your ad choices.

WHAT happens if you don't buy cyber risk insurance? Well, Jaguar Land Rover certainly found out earlier this year. The luxury carmaker was hit by a devastating cyber attack in late August, causing it to shut down its production lines for more than four weeks and costing it £50m a week. It only got things back to normal in early October. It was initially forced to withhold payments from suppliers. That is no small matter, given that the automotive parts supply chain, which famously runs on the just-in-time model, supports 200,000 jobs in the UK. It even had to turn to its bankers to secure a £2bn funding facility, which won't have come cheap. On top of all that, the government saw no choice but to step in with a £1.5bn credit guarantee, simply to avoid the potential economic fallout. Other recent victims of cyber crime include Heathrow Airport and high street retailers Marks & Spencer and the Co-op. Many big players in the maritime industries have also been on the receiving end, from boxship giants Maersk, MSC and CMA CGM to ports giant DP World and top broker Clarksons. A recent report from IBM, which examined data breaches experienced by about 600 organisations worldwide, put the average cost of an incident at $4.4m (or £3.3m). What is clear is that cyber risk is a growing threat, as hackers becoming increasingly more sophisticated. This special joint Insurance Day/Lloyd's List podcast will look at how insurance can at least mitigate the worst impacts for companies in both the maritime and wider business sectors. Joining Insurance Day reporter Queenie Shaikh are: Robert Dorey, chief executive, Astaara William Altman, director, CyberCube Stephen Wares, head of international underwriting, Coalition Subscribe to Lloyd's List: https://www.lloydslistintelligence.com/products/lloyds-list Learn more about Lloyd's List Intelligence: https://www.lloydslistintelligence.com/
Will Doctor the sharpest golf mind in the game gets you ready with all his picks for the DP World Tour Championship Will Doctor returns on Pregame's Golf Preview Podcast to cover the DP World Tour India Championship at Delhi Golf Club, a short, tight thinker's course demanding accuracy and elite Bermuda putting. Rory McIlroy headlines the field at +550 after his Ryder Cup appearance, while Tommy Fleetwood, Ben Griffin, Victor Hovland, and Brian Harman follow on the odds board. Doctor candidly admits his recent slump—down 6.7 units after a rough run of misses in Japan and Spain—but aims to bounce back in India. He reviews poor picks like Eric Cole at the Bay Current, Michael Kim's top-ten miss, and Hideki Matsuyama's near miss on the Japanese leaderboard. Despite Christian Bezuidenhout's top-ten and some solid form from Patrick Reed and young star Angel Ayora, Doctor's recent cards have fallen short. In Spain, Marco Penge won, and Doctor's outrights in the DP and Korn Ferry Tour events all missed, dropping another 11 units. Shifting focus, he outlines Delhi's setup—tight fairways, strategic play, and little need for drivers—and identifies players with precise ball-striking and solid putting as keys to victory. McIlroy's length gives him an edge even with fewer drivers, but Doctor is cautious given Rory's layoff. Fleetwood at +675 is his top choice among favorites due to accuracy, sixth in strokes gained approach, and proven Bermuda success at East Lake. Griffin, despite a stellar season and two wins, has too long a layoff to back pre-tournament. Hovland, nursing a neck injury, is another fade despite elite approach stats, as Doctor avoids risk. Harman fits perfectly with his precision and prior success on Bermuda layouts but is also a pass due to recent inactivity. Doctor's first “pick to place” is Denmark's Jeff Winther top 20 at +260 for his accuracy and positive recent putting form, including a top-10 in India last year. His second placement pick is India's Anirban Lahiri top 10 at +260, praising Lahiri's form from LIV events and strong national open history despite criticizing LIV's limited fields. For outrights, Doctor backs Fleetwood to win at +675, Ayora at 30-1 after consecutive top-tens and improving putting, and Joel Girrbach at 120-1 as a sleeper with renewed iron play and putting confidence after a solo third in Madrid. He offers a football promo—code DRINK20 for $20 off an all-access package—before revealing his sleeper, Jeong Weon Ko top 10 at 12-1, citing his success in India and strong ball-striking. His best bet is Ayora top 10 at +225 on MGM, expecting the Spanish prodigy to contend again. Doctor concludes optimistic about finding form in Delhi, emphasizing control off the tee, confident approach play, and putting consistency on Bermuda as the key to cashing in.
