Eugenio Chacarra wins in India, Rory McIlroy responds to criticism, and the deadline for players to commit to LIV Golf 2.0 is fast approaching!

This week on The Watering Hole Golf Podcast, Chris, Steve and Whitey break down another big week in the world of professional golf.

On the DP World Tour, Eugenio Chacarra continues his incredible run of form, claiming victory in India and moving to the top of the Race to Dubai standings. We discuss his impressive performances and what could be next for the Spaniard.

Rory McIlroy has also hit back at criticism surrounding his appearance in India, with questions raised over whether his decision to play was about growing the game or simply collecting an appearance fee.

We then turn our attention to LIV Golf 2.0, looking at the players who have committed to the league ahead of the looming October 25 deadline, and what their decisions could mean for the future of LIV Golf.

Anthony Kim headlines a LIV heavy field for this weeks Hong Kong Open on the Asian Tour as a spot at the 2027 Masters in up for grabs

Away from the professional game, Mount Rushmore returns, and this week we're tackling one of life's most important debates: the four greatest sauces of all time. From tomato sauce to the more controversial choices, expect plenty of arguments and questionable selections.

Plus, the boys recap their four-man scramble at Willunga Golf Club, including the highlights, lowlights and everything that happened out on the course.

🍻 Pull up a stool, grab a drink and join Chris, Steve and Whitey for Episode 177 of The Watering Hole Golf Podcast.

Golf news. Golf talk. And plenty that has absolutely nothing to do with golf.

Is LIV Golf 2.0 already falling apart?

Jon Rahm, Sergio Garcia and Abraham Ancer are leaving LIV Golf, questions surround Cameron Smith's future, and the uncertainty around the league continues to grow.

This week on The Watering Hole Golf Podcast, Chris, Steve and Whitey dive into the latest developments surrounding LIV Golf, the player departures and whether the proposed next chapter of LIV Golf will even get off the ground. We discuss the DP World Tour's ultimatum, with players facing a choice over where they'll compete, and what this could mean for the future of professional golf.

Elsewhere in the golf world, Blades Brown earns his PGA Tour card, and the DP World Tour heads to India for another big week of international golf.

Away from the professional game, Mount Rushmore returns, and this week we're choosing the four greatest video games of all time. From childhood classics to modern favourites, expect plenty of nostalgia, arguments and questionable selections.

Plus, the boys are finally getting out on the golf course together this week for a scramble. What could possibly go wrong?
