Nuacht Mhall. Príomhscéalta na seachtaine, léite go mall.*Inniu an naoú lá déag de mhí Iúil. Is mise Oisín Mac Conamhna.Tuairiscíodh sa Wall Street Journal gur scríobh Donald Trump litir bhreithlae ghraosta leath-thagairteach chuig Jeffrey Epstein, an t-airgeadaí agus péidifileach a chuir lámh ina bhás féin in 2019. Tá an tuairisc séanta ag Trump. Tá an-tacaíocht ag teoiricí comhcheilge faoi choireanna Epstein i measc lucht QAnon agus MAGA, dílseoirí Trump de ghnáth, agus anois tá an chonspóid ag éiri ina fhadhb pholaitiúil dó. Gheall Trump san fheachtas toghcháin go gcuirfeadh sé amach gach eolas faoi Epstein atá ag an rialtas, agus anois tá a chuid tacadóirí ag fanacht air. Dúirt Elon Musk ar X le linn troid mhór phoiblí le Trump an mhí seo caite go bhfuil Trump féin i gcomhaid Epstein.Thosaigh tochailt agus dí-adhlacadh fóiréinseach choirp na leanaí atá curtha ar shuíomh an iar-árais máithreacha is leanaí i dTuaim an tseachtain seo. De réir taighde a rinne Catherine Corless, níl taifead adhlactha ag beagnach 800 leanbh a d'éag san áras idir 1925 agus 1961, nuair a raibh an t-áras i mbun oibre faoi na Siúracha Bon Secours, ar son Comhairle Contae na Gaillimhe. Dheimhnigh fiosrúchán ar an suíomh go bhfuil go leor cnámha leanaí ann i seanchóras séarachais an árais. Tá 5,000 meadar cearnógach sa suíomh, agus meastar go mbeidh an tochailt ar siúl go cionn dhá bhliain ar a laghad, ag iarraidh a fháil amach cé atá curtha ann.Tá deireadh seachtaine mór spóirt ann faoi láthair. Inniu tá an chéad mhórchluiche de chamchuairt Leoin na Breataine agus na hÉireann ar siúl, i gcoinne na hAstrála i mBrisbane. I bPort Rois in Aontroim, tá Rory McIlroy agus Shane Lowry ag iarraidh an Chraobhchomórtas Oscailte Gailf a bhaint, den dara huair san áit chéanna i gcás Lowry, tar éis bua cáiliúil aige ann in 2019. Agus Dé Domhnaigh i bPáirc an Chrócaigh, beidh Corcaigh agus Tiobraid Árainn san iomaíocht le haghaidh Chraobh Iománaíochta na hÉireann.

Hear from Rory McIlroy and Shane Lowry ahead of the event plus, we get you set going over all the storylines, coverage details, press conference schedule, course breakdown, latest odds, weather updates and much much more.
It's the week of The Open Championship, or the British Open, depending on how you say it. Before we get to that though, we have to touch on Grace Kim's fantastic win, we'll go through it in great detail on tomorrow's main podcast, but we had to acknowledge it today given how incredible the win was, particularly the finish!Onto The Open. Nick and Mark discuss what Royal Portrush is like, how it plays, and how well one of the players they like this week - Shane Lowry - plays this course. Mark is concerned about Rory given the undoubted media attention he'll receive. Can Jason Day win? He could, but Nick and Mark don't believe he is playing well enough at the moment; however they do like Ryan Fox this week.Mark feels that this tournament may be Adam Scott's last chance to win a major. Nick disagrees. Predictably, Mark is bullish on Sepp Straka, knock us over with a feather, who'd have seen that coming. Nick disagrees (again), saying whilst the course suits Straka, he doesn't rate his chances. Mark says Morikawa is no chance as he is hitting the ball terribly at the moment.And Mark names the player that he would love to win the tournament (hint, it's not Straka). And Nick explains why he believes Scheffler might struggle this week.We run through a bunch of other players and how they might go, including Nick and Marks tip for the winner, and their roughie.And, given it's a major, we've got our Talk Birdie To Me multi on at Betr. Two legs a reasonable chance, one a bit riskier, but that gets the odds up a little further, we'd love you to get on board at Betr if you have an account, and if not, it takes a moment or two to set up. Here's the multi:1) Tommy Fleetwood to beat Bryson2) Shane Lowry to beat Rory3) Scheffler to miss the Top 10Paying 14 bucks. Remember, there's no guarantee you'll win, it's just a bit of fun, so if you can't afford to lose it, then don't bet it. But it's a fun one to whack 5, 10, 20 bucks on. You can find the Talk Birdie To Me multi on the Betr website or app under 'Betr Specials'.See you tomorrow when we go in depth on the amazing Grace Kim result on the main pod !We're live from Titleist and FootJoy HQ thanks to our great partners:Titleist, the #1 ball in golf;FootJoy, the #1 shoe and glove in golf;PING will help you play your best.

Die Jungs diskutieren über ihren spektakulären Auftritt, ihre Coolness – und warum ihre Profi-Kolleginnen ins Schwitzen geraten sind. Grace Kim gewinnt im Thriller-Stechen Das Stechen beim Damen-Major hatte es in sich: Eagle, Birdie, Eagle – Grace Kim holt sich den Titel nach einem unfassbaren Finale. Und Hinnerk, Sven und Bene analysieren, warum Gino Thitikul am Ende trotz starker Leistung leer ausgeht. Nach gutem Start wird es für Helen Briem bitter – die Back Nine des Schlusstags werden zum Albtraum. Das Trio analysiert, warum trotzdem Potenzial für große Erfolge da ist.

L'américain Xander Schauffele en 2024, l'américain Brian Harman en 2023, l'australien Cameron Smith en 2022, l'américain Colin Morikawa en 2021, il faut remonter à 2019 pour voir un européen gagner The Open, l'irlandais Shane Lowry. A un peu plus de deux mois de la Ryder Cup, c'est peut-être le moment idéal pour les européens de frapper un grand coup. A partir de jeudi, un monstre se dresse face aux meilleurs joueurs de la planète : le Royal Portrush Golf Club en Irlande du Nord. Les européens doivent-ils absolument remporter The Open ? C'est le débat du jour orchestré par Jean-Christophe Drouet avec la Dream Team Golf Martin Coulomb, Simon Dutin et notre invité Julien Benneteau, ancien tennisman professionnel et grand fan de golf.
A new documentary airing this week This is Open Country, coming to Sky Sports Golf and NOW. Ahead of the Open arriving into Portrush next week, this one-hour special feature examines just how golfers from the island of Ireland have proved to be undeniably successful at this great tournament. For the first time within one film, we hear from Rory McIlroy, Shane Lowry, Pádraig Harrington and Darren Clarke, to understand what transformed these four men from young boys on the golf course to Major success. Ivan spoke to its Director Ross Whitaker.
The next generation of golfers hoping to follow in the footsteps of Rory McIlroy and Shane Lowry have been put through their paces in East Clare this week. Bodyke has been the scene for the latest Junior Camp at East Clare Golf Club. The club is home to a Dr. Arthur Spring designed Championship parkland course, which is idyllically situated in the rolling East Clare landscape just a stone's throw from Lough Derg. On Monday and Tuesday this week, a host of young golfers have been levelling up their game, sharpening their swing, and having fun on the fairways! Alan Morrissey made the trip to East Clare Golf Club to chat with some of Clare's talented young golfers, as well as the club figures helping them to grow their game.
After tons of anticipation, it was the longshot J.J. Spaun who survived Oakmont and came way with the the US Open trophy!We dive into everything surrounding this tournament and discuss what J.J. Spauns' win at the US Open means for him and his career, how the collapse of Sam Burns could affect him going forward, if Viktor Hovland can break through in a major championship after coming up short again and how Robert McIntyre is playing his best golf right now.Plus, the guys tee off on Rory McIlroy and Shane Lowry for how they acted at the US Open!Let us know what you thought of the tournament in the comments!☑️TIMESTAMPS00:00 - Intro00:34 - US Open Reaction03:42 - J.J.

On this week's edition of the podcast, we dive into JJ Spaun's sensational US Open win at Oakmont. Spaun had been unheralded and considered giving up the game last year but now his life has changed. Oakmont as a golf course was the big winner in the end as Sunday became survival of the fittest.Rory McIlroy and Shane Lowry had disappointing weeks while there was more media controversy for McIlroy who took a jibe at journalists on site while Lowry had a moment to forget on the 14th. Meanwhile, 18 Irish are in action at the Amateur Championship while the Flogas Women's Irish Amateur takes places in Headfort.
Andy and Brendan went live in front of a studio audience at Local Remedy Brewing in Oakmont to recap the second round of the 2025 U.S. Open. They discuss an... interesting... leaderboard heading into the weekend, headlined by Sam Burns after a Friday 65. The two share some worry about the current situations unfolding and debate what the best-case and worst-case scenarios are come Sunday night. They two then run through the big names who won't see the weekend, including Bryson DeChambeau, Shane Lowry, and Ludvig Åberg. There's some scuttlebutt from the grounds, some live audience interaction, and much more whimsy on this Friday the 13th recording.
It was a bumper morning on Off The Ball Breakfast this Thursday! Colm Boohig was joined by the returning co-host Meghann Scully, as well as Team OTB members Rachel Sheehan and Arthur James O'Dea.

Will Doctor gives you the sharpest card for the 2025 RBC Canadian Open at TPC Toronto. -Discussing top 7 on odds board -2 t20's -3 outrights (40/1, 80/1, 100/1) -Sleeper, talking Cougar Collins -FRP, 2 lineups, scoring, best bet For the latest on the world of golf, follow Doc on X @drmedia59 The 2025 RBC Canadian Open at TPC Toronto brings exciting betting opportunities and player analysis. Hosted at Osprey Valley, this wide-open, low-hazard course with oversized greens promises a birdie-fest with a projected winning score of 27-under par. Will Doctor's PGA Tour Preview Podcast delivers in-depth insights for bettors and fans. Rory McIlroy leads the odds at +450, having won twice and posted two additional top-10s in four Canadian Open starts. Despite some recent iron play struggles, McIlroy's game suits the forgiving Toronto course, though Doctor passes due to short odds. Ludvig Åberg sits at 16-1 after a strong 16th-place finish at Memorial and a prior 7th at the Masters. Corey Conners, at 20-1, boasts consistent ball-striking and improved putting but faces distance concerns. Shane Lowry's excellent tee-to-green game is offset by putting woes, making him a fade at 22-1. Robert MacIntyre, last year's champion, faces chipping and driving distance issues, leading Doctor to pass on him at 30-1. Taylor Pendrith's elite iron play is countered by inconsistent putting, leaving him off the card at 30-1. Sam Burns offers strong value with elite putting and returning iron form, making him a top-20 pick at +125. Johnny Keefer, a 24-year-old emerging star, enters with Korn Ferry Tour success and a recent U.S. Open qualification, earning a top-20 bet at +250. Luke Clanton, the Florida State standout with historic amateur PGA Tour performances, is backed for an outright win at 40-1. Gary Woodland, recovering strong form and elite bentgrass putting, holds value at 80-1. Eric Van Rooyen's dominant U.S. Open qualifying win makes him a compelling 100-1 outright play. Sleeper Cougar Collins, a TPC Toronto member, earned his Canadian Open spot via qualifying and is backed for a top-40 finish at 8-1. First-round pick Harry Hall, ranked 6th in first-round scoring average, offers value at 4-1 to finish top-10 after round one. DraftKings lineup selections include Åberg, Burns, Clanton, Keefer, Van Rooyen, and Collins, while PGA Tour Fantasy features Åberg, Hall, Clanton, Van Rooyen (Captain), Keefer, and Burns. Weather forecasts predict favorable scoring conditions early with potential rain disruptions over the weekend. Doctor's best bet is Ludvig Åberg top-10 at +150. The podcast wraps with a promo code RBC20 for Pregame.com discounts and a tease for upcoming U.S. Open coverage. TPC Toronto's debut promises plenty of drama, breakout performances, and strong betting angles for this year's RBC Canadian Open. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
On this week's edition of the podcast the lads discuss another Scottie Scheffler masterclass at the Memorial as he won his third event in four starts and will rightly be the overwhelming favourite to win next week's US Open.Shane Lowry's putting continues to be a worry despite all of his excellent golf from tee to green while slow play reared its ugly head at the US Women's Open but there were positive signs for Leona Maguire despite a third missed cut in a row at Erin Hills.
We start today's pod talking about Scottie Scheffler's thumping win in Charlotte, Nick describes Scottie as 'Tiger-esque' at the moment, and Nick and Mark discuss his impressive performance, and some key moments. Mark loves how the year is shaping up with Rory, Scottie notching big wins, and Nick adds Bryson to the conversation as well.Nick brings up the multi that we had on with Betr. It didn't go well. Rory let us down, and it appears that we were on the wrong JT. Mark is confident that one will come off for the Wolfpack, and he is doubling down on Straka.Back to Scottie. Mark was impressed, not only with his performance but with how is caddy Ted Scott spoke about how Scottie handled the weekend mentally. Nick outlines what he sees in Scottie's game when he is under pressure. Mark loved the stats that were being provided on Scottie's misses to the left from Trevor Immelman who he describes as an elite golf commentator. We play a video of Scottie's 2nd shot on 15 on Sunday which Mark describes as his best shot of the tournament - but what a follow through! And on swings and follow throughs, who is the tour pro that Tiger tells Charlie to watch?Nick questions if the LIV guys are getting effective preparation for majors, in playing LIV. Mark raises Jon Rahm and feels if he made the birdie on 14 and 15, the outcome may have been different, both Nick and Mark feel an in-form Rahm is great for golf.Mudballs. Should they be addresses? Mark says the mudball situation in Charlotte should not have happened. And we discuss Shane Lowry's ball in another player's pitchmark/plughole, Mark feels this should be address, Nick says it is part of the game and it should be left as is.What about Jhonattan Vegas' shot into a rake! We watch the video and discuss. Mark starts banging on about rakes again. Illegal drivers. Nick and Mark discuss Scottie's and Rory's, and Mark says Rory's non-media appearance was 'shameful'.Top 5 from Nick on the toughest final 3 holes he's ever played in a major, he runs through them, explains why, and names what he believes is the toughest Par 4 in the world.Feedback today is largely on the coverage in Australian at the weekend, and on Rory's announcement last week. Plus we have a wolfpacker comment about Kingston Heath that Mark 'refuses to comment on'.PING globals results from Nick, comprehensive as always, and Marks masterclass which he describes as 'his greatest ever'.We're live from Titleist and FootJoy HQ thanks to our great partners:Titleist, the #1 ball in golf;FootJoy, the #1 shoe and glove in golf;PING will help you play your best.

-Discussing top 7 on odds board at Quail Hollow -1 matchup -2 picks to place -2 outrights added to 2 futures on card -Sleeper, 2 lineups, scoring, best bet Will Doctor, host of the Golf Preview Podcast, provided a comprehensive breakdown of the 107th PGA Championship at Quail Hollow, North Carolina. The event features 156 players, and the course—known for hosting the Wells Fargo Championship—is now set for its second PGA Championship. Rory McIlroy, with four wins at Quail Hollow and four victories in his last ten starts, is co-favorite at +550 alongside world number one Scottie Scheffler. McIlroy, though powerful off the tee averaging 324 yards at Philly Cricket, only hit 40% of fairways, presenting accuracy concerns. Scheffler, coming off an eight-shot victory at the Nelson, has shown flawless iron play and putting, despite never playing Quail Hollow professionally. Will Doctor endorsed Scheffler as his primary pick at +550. Justin Thomas, fourth favorite at 22-1, has been exceptional lately with two runner-ups and a win in his last four starts. His strong course history at Quail Hollow, including a 2017 PGA win, positions him as a top contender. Bryson DeChambeau, at +950, recently won at Live Korea, praised for his elite driving and improving short game, though his iron play remains a question. Doctor recommends DeChambeau for a Top 10 finish at +110 but avoids an outright pick. Sepp Straka's victory at Philly Cricket was highlighted by his 60% fairway rate, over 3.5 strokes gained on approach, and best-in-field putting performance. Shane Lowry led the field in approach but faltered with the putter, notably a costly three-putt on the 72nd hole, continuing his winless streak since 2022. Will Doctor criticized his own picks from the previous event, noting none contended, with Spieth finishing T34, Stevens T23, and Dorby Olson T54. His picks to place last week salvaged some units, including Patrick Cantlay and Tommy Fleetwood, both closing with 65s, and Andrew Novak with a final round 64 for T17. Quail Hollow, expected to play at 7,600 yards, faces wet conditions from early-week rains, likely favoring bombers and elite chippers, though greens will remain firm due to sub-air systems. The betting focus includes Justin Thomas over Jon Rahm at +117, McIlroy to Top 5 at even money, and Bryson DeChambeau to Top 10 at +110. Futures on Tyrell Hatton and Sung Jae Im have lost value, with both needing career weeks to contend, particularly Im, whose iron play has struggled all year. The DraftKings lineup features DeChambeau, Thomas, Matsuyama, Novak, Mitchell, and Norgaard, while the PGA.com lineup includes Scheffler (captain), DeChambeau, Thomas, McIlroy, with Mitchell and Novak on the bench. Keith Mitchell, known for his fast starts but inability to maintain over four rounds, is backed to Top 20 at 3-1. Doctor expects the winning score at 14 under, higher than the 8 under posted by Thomas in 2017 due to softer conditions. His best bet is DeChambeau to Top 10 at +110. He criticized the Live schedule's poor major prep, arguing it hampers players like Rahm more than DeChambeau. Finally, he acknowledged the rain's impact would likely limit firmness to Saturday only, favoring players with distance, elite iron play, and strong short games.

-Discussing top 7 on odds board at Quail Hollow -1 matchup -2 picks to place -2 outrights added to 2 futures on card -Sleeper, 2 lineups, scoring, best bet Will Doctor, host of the Golf Preview Podcast, provided a comprehensive breakdown of the 107th PGA Championship at Quail Hollow, North Carolina. The event features 156 players, and the course—known for hosting the Wells Fargo Championship—is now set for its second PGA Championship. Rory McIlroy, with four wins at Quail Hollow and four victories in his last ten starts, is co-favorite at +550 alongside world number one Scottie Scheffler. McIlroy, though powerful off the tee averaging 324 yards at Philly Cricket, only hit 40% of fairways, presenting accuracy concerns. Scheffler, coming off an eight-shot victory at the Nelson, has shown flawless iron play and putting, despite never playing Quail Hollow professionally. Will Doctor endorsed Scheffler as his primary pick at +550. Justin Thomas, fourth favorite at 22-1, has been exceptional lately with two runner-ups and a win in his last four starts. His strong course history at Quail Hollow, including a 2017 PGA win, positions him as a top contender. Bryson DeChambeau, at +950, recently won at Live Korea, praised for his elite driving and improving short game, though his iron play remains a question. Doctor recommends DeChambeau for a Top 10 finish at +110 but avoids an outright pick. Sepp Straka's victory at Philly Cricket was highlighted by his 60% fairway rate, over 3.5 strokes gained on approach, and best-in-field putting performance. Shane Lowry led the field in approach but faltered with the putter, notably a costly three-putt on the 72nd hole, continuing his winless streak since 2022. Will Doctor criticized his own picks from the previous event, noting none contended, with Spieth finishing T34, Stevens T23, and Dorby Olson T54.

-There's been an interesting storyline in golf this year about golfers wanting more time to calm down before they go to the media tent—first with Collin Morikawa a month ago and now with Shane Lowry at The Masters-It's probably two very different spectrums of thoughts for both Sip and Bill on this, right? Would Sip want the access right afterwards to get that true emotion right after a game? And for Bill…as a coach…how much time is proper to get right mentally after a game?

What a tremendous weekend of healing and watching The Masters golf tournament. The healing part - hand surgery this past Thursday. The golf part, the emotional roller coaster was so special & memorable for many reasons. I saw this post from Shane Lowry (@ShaneLowryGolf) who was not only a competitor in the tournament and he was playing well enough for times to be looking at a possible victory, but he is also great friends with the eventual champion, Rory MciIory. We all need friends like this, where Shane posted this: “The Masters is one of the greatest weeks in golf. I was so disappointed with my performance Sunday but I gave it everything and that's all I can ask for. I've never been happier to watch someone else achieve something that I want so badly myself. Rory deserves every bit of this and I was so happy to be there to watch him make history.” Remember, if you want friends like this in your life, be this type of friend for others. The world needs more of this for sure. More people encouraging & celebrating other people's success. Outstanding life lessons. Thanks for listening.

The stage is set for an instant classic at Augusta: in a rematch of their 2024 U.S. Open duel at Pinehurst, Rory McIlroy takes a two-shot lead over Bryson DeChambeau into Sunday at the Masters. Smylie Kaufman and Charlie Hulme discuss Rory's monster day off the tee, Bryson's post-round iron range session, and the atmosphere expected for the impending Rory vs Bryson showdown, while journaling their way through everything that happened Saturday at Augusta National for the third round of the 2025 Masters Tournament.
Will Doctor reviews all 95 players at Augusta en route to finalizing card for the 89th playing of the Masters Tournament at Augusta National Golf Club. -Reviewing 4 futures outright tickets -Reviewing 3 picks to win any major in 2025 -Going through all 95 players in the Masters Tournament -Adding 1 outright -1 t20, 1 t30 -2 bets "to make the cut" -1 bet "to miss the cut" -4 72-hole matchups -1 first round matchup -3 round 1 three ball matchups -1 t10 after R1 including an 8.2-unit loss at the Valero Texas Open and a failed 9-1 futures ticket on the Houston Cougars in NCAA basketball. He stresses the importance of reviewing picks, especially amid a losing streak, and outlines the four Masters futures he carries from December: Scottie Scheffler (7-1), Ludwig Aberg (14-1), Sung Jae Im (50-1), and Sepp Straka (100-1), with three additional tickets on Sahith Theegala, Tom Kim, and Davis Thompson to win any major. Scottie Scheffler, coming in as the favorite at +525, is praised for consistent elite performance, including no finishes worse than 25th in six events since returning from a hand injury, and podium finishes in his last four starts. His game, including a best putting performance of the season in Houston, is peaking. Rory McIlroy is faded despite strong wins at Pebble Beach and the Players; Will cites driving accuracy issues and suggests 10-1 would be a fairer line than 7.25-1. Jon Rahm, now on the LIV circuit, enters at 16-1 with recent top-10s but inconsistent putting and chipping. Morikawa is also passed over due to final-round collapses, though Will does back him to top 10 in Round 1. Other fades include Bryson DeChambeau (20-1), Justin Thomas (25-1), and Hideki Matsuyama (35-1), due to poor putting or chipping trends. Conversely, Will is bullish on Robert MacIntyre (60-1), who has recorded three straight top-11 finishes and two strong prior Augusta showings. He places both an outright bet and a matchup on him. Victor Hovland is another targeted play, specifically in a matchup over Cam Smith, following his Valspar win and a confident outlook on his improved short game. Shane Lowry, cited for consistency and solid Augusta history, is backed for a top 20, while Russell Henley earns a top-30 ticket thanks to elevated iron play. Several key quotes add depth. Scottie Scheffler credits Texas's varied conditions for developing his shot-making adaptability. Rory McIlroy reflects on family memories and the beauty of Augusta. Morikawa defends media avoidance, which Will critiques as symptomatic of poor mental preparation. Hovland speaks optimistically about short-game improvements with coach Grant Waite, prompting confidence from Will. Aberg's comments reveal awareness of recent struggles, but he remains committed to routine. Sepp Straka remains a strong value at 100-1 with excellent iron play and driving form. He's bet to beat Sam Burns in a first-round matchup, who is faded due to declining performance. Sung Jae Im's ticket has cratered in value, and Will expresses regret on that pick. Spieth is passed over at 40-1 due to erratic iron play, despite solid chipping and putting. Other noted fades include Tommy Fleetwood, Corey Connors, Cam Smith, Patrick Cantlay, Min Woo Lee, and Brooks Koepka, each due to specific statistical weaknesses in approach, short game, or driving. Later segments analyze lower-ranked players, including positive remarks about Phil Mickelson's resurgence and Charles Schwartzel's sharp form. Will picks Mickelson to make the cut, citing recent LIV success. Keegan Bradley and Akshay Bhatia are also featured in favorable matchups. Will wraps with lineup picks for Masters.com, choosing Scheffler, Patrick Reed, Shane Lowry, Davis Thompson, and Straka.
