What a weekend! None of us have gotten as much sleep as we'd like with the Tour Championship on, but Tommy Fleetwood....what a star, and the entire golf world was celebrating his first win. Wonderful. Mark describes the final couple of holes as Tommy playing for his life, as he's not sure how another capitulation would have impacted him.

As impressive as the win was, and as consistent as Tommy has been, Mark makes the point that - as with Jon Rahm and LIV last week, he doesn't believe that Tommy should be the Tour Champion, as Scheffler as 'without any shadow of a doubt' been the best player this year. Mark says both LIV and the PGA have this wrong. Nick and Mark discuss options to make it fairer.

The new boss of the PGA has been talking about his plans, and one word in his comments has jumped out to Mark, he explains why and we discuss.

The Ryder Cup selections will be this week for the US and Keegan Bradley has a big decision to make. Nick and Mark both have a view on what he should do, and explain why.

This weekend Mark is playing Royal Melbourne, and he's hoping he is welcomed given his recent comments about the preparedness of the course for the Australian Open, however he is cheering for it to look incredible come December.

Our new segment for BMW is a Touch of Class, and this week Nick O'Hern inducts Tommy Fleetwood as our inductee, not for his play, but for his press conference afterwards. We listen to what he said. It was indeed a touch of class from Tommy.

Mark has bought something on Temu. Apologies. We tried to stop him but he was determined to show off this $3.50 purchase.

After the turn Nick lists the Top 5 'Chokers' in golf......or does he? Top 5 for Betr, and as much as we loved Tommy winning he was responsible for our Betr multi failing so we're a bit dark on him at the same time.

Lots of feedback for Southern Golf Club. Feedback on Rahm's title, some good news for Mark re: Monty, a whack for Nick and Mark from Billy, and a whack for Dan from Johnno. Brutal.

Hardly know where to start with the PING global results, there has been some massive results - Tommy the big one, but an 'oh so close' result for Minjee in Canada, and plenty of other results to run through.

And for watchMynumbers Marks masterclass today, inspired by Patrick Cantlay, is on the importance of having your weight in the right spot.
