SportsPro digital editor Tom Bassam and industry consultant Giles Morgan join Eoin Connolly to review another week of compelling sports business news.



They reflect on a potentially decisive blow for the backers of a Saudi-funded breakaway golf series (01:47), and the inflammatory comments of Phil Mickelson. Then they look at the latest money movements in rugby union (18:00) as Silver Lake completes its New Zealand deal and South Africa are linked with a move to the Six Nations Championship.



There’s also time for reports of a bidding race for the Premier League NFT licence (34:40) and a few stories drifting under the radar (45:55).
