About this episode

The episode discusses the controversial pricing of Ryder Cup tickets and its implications for Irish fans.

The countdown to the 2027 Ryder Cup at Adare Manor is well underway, but the biggest talking point isn’t the golf… it’s the price. With match day tickets starting at €499, Irish golf fans are split. In this episode, I breaks down: The real cost of attending The price jump from Rome 2023 The reaction from Irish fans and golfers The argument that it’s “extortion” vs “global event pricing” And most importantly, where does the money actually go? Is it pricing out Irish fans? or Is this simply the cost of a global sporting event?
