Michael thinks that Niemann is playing the best golf in the world after racking up another win on LIV. Jonny doesn't agree.

Chris Courtneidge Head Fitter & Product Trainer for Callaway joins Jonny at Golf Ireland's HQ to explain Callaway's next generation of products, from the AI Smoke Driver and woods, the AI-One putters range as well as the new Chrome Tour golf balls.

We get into the weeds of golf gear and technology here and it was fascinating to learn so much about the R&D of golf equipment.

If there's more you'd like to hear/learn about Callaway's production process and Research & Development get in touch and we'll get Chris or some of the team from Callaway back on the podcast.

Thanks so much for listening.

The PGA disappoints for another week as these Signature Events feel anything but elevated, with Tiger withdrawing, Jordan getting DQ'd and none of the fan favourites performing it was set to be a lacklustre Sunday, but Hideki Matsuyama stormed to victory in his Sunday Yellow and adds the Genesis Invitational to his list of impressive tour victories.

This week on Bet Of The Week, the DP World Tour is in Kenya and Jonny has backed fellow Irishman Conor Purcell to finish T20 whilst Michael has pinned his hopes on Ewen Ferguson. We’ll track our progress throughout the entire season and update weekly

A brand-new links golf course 28 years in the making is finally getting closer to fruition in southeast Ireland.

Shovels are breaking ground this week on Curracloe Links, a Dana Fry and Jason Straka design that will debut in 2026.

Dana and Jason joined Jonny on the podcast for a brief discussion around the inspiration behind the course, their ambition and love of Irish golf and plenty more.

We'll be doing some more pieces with Dana and Jason during their construction on what might be the last new links golf course to be built in Ireland.

The 6,600-yard, par-70 golf course will be a part of the new Ravenport Resort, a luxury hotel with 50 rooms, a spa and leisure club in Wexford. Ravenport Resort, overlooking Ireland's most famous beach, Curracloe Beach, where Steven Spielberg filmed the opening scene in the film "Saving Private Ryan."

A ridge divides the 160-acre property. Some holes offer sea views, while others stare off into the beautiful Irish countryside. It's very walkable land. Water will come into play on the first and 18th holes, which is rare - but not unheard of - for an Irish links.

"One of my favorite parts of the property doesn't even have the water views," Straka said. "It is surrounded by sheep farms. It is quintessential Ireland with a backdrop of the rock walls and sheep everywhere. You definitely have a sense of place. It's geared toward fun, resort-style golf and tourism. We're not looking to host the Irish Open. That is not what this is all about."

We talk about being let down by the Waste Management Phoenix Open and LIV being the better show at the moment.
