Ep115: Nick O'Hern: '2 Things Rory Must do to Win a Major in 2025', Mark Allen 'The Players Should be a Major'

We start today by talking about The Players, a wonderful tournament, and Nick and Mark discuss Rory's win. Mark believes it is time The Players became classed as a major, he loves the event. Nick agrees it is fantastic. Whilst Rory won, Nick has identified two things that he needs to do in order to win a (current) major this year, and he explains what they are and why they would make a huge difference. Mark has an observation on Rory's putting which we discuss. An interesting week for Rory, he won The Players, and also pinched a kids mobile phone. Reasonable behaviour or not? Nick and Mark give their view. And he made some interesting comments on The Champions Tour, which Ernie Els replied to, and we chat about.

Mark asks Nick about the tree on the 6th tee, and we discuss the Brandel Chamblee and Phil McGinley discussion about LIV and the PGA.

And we can't go to the turn without looking at how our Betr multi went on The Players.

Top 5 from Mark today is his Top 5 notable non-wagglers. Nick runs around the world with PING global results. And in feedback, we have a couple of book suggestions from wolfpackers, and lots of feedback on Nick and Marks comments about what courses are suitable to host The Australian Open.

We call John from Cootamundra, who tells us about a fantastic family Ambrose tournament this weekend - for more info you can call the pro shop here.

And a cracking masterclass from Nick on the three-quarter shot.
