Ball tampering, fans storming the golf course, bringing in the military... this is the story of how the Ryder Cup rivalry changed forever.


Can you believe that it was once a quiet, civilised exhibition between the UK and America? The War by the Shore and Battle of Brookline transformed all that.


So how did the Ryder Cup become the commercial juggernaut of colour, cash and controversy that we're seeing this week?

It may have been Great Britain's worst World Athletics Championships in over 20 years but Gabby and Mark are joined in studio by one athlete who lit up Tokyo, Georgia Hunter-Bell. She beat her training partner and Olympic champion, Keely Hodgkinson, to an 800m silver medal. How did she manage it after 5 years out of the sport and only going full time for this season? What went wrong for GB? And how is she feeling about still being owed money by Grand Slam track?


And the HMRC of Football Podcasts, Karel Prince, who's been fact checking footballers and pundits - no one is safe...


Plus, Gabby and Mark react to the Ballon D'Or and England reaching the Rugby World Cup Final!

Eddie Hearn sits down with Gabby & Mark to talk about the evolution of Matchroom from a £100 sports promotion company, formed under under the staircase of the Romford Snooker Club, to a billion pound global behemoth.


Eddie speaks openly about still trying to impress his Dad, Matchroom founder Barry Hearn, planning for life after Anthony Joshua and his pain at how much more profitable the darts is than the boxing!


And in the week we lost ‘The Hitman’ Ricky Hatton - Eddie also pays tribute to one of the most loved boxers this country has ever produced.

Gabby & Mark are joined by the former Premier League defender Danny Mills, who's just landed in Tokyo to watch his son - GB's George Mills - try to win gold in the 5000m at the World Athletics Championships this weekend.


Danny talks openly about both the pride and agony of following his son's athletics career and marvels at the extreme level of dedication it requires in comparison to football!


Plus, Chappers has a theory about why more managers don't watch their teams from the stands like PSG boss Luis Enrique and Gabby calls on her beloved Newcastle to evoke the spirit of Tino Asprilla against Barcelona at St James Park on Thursday night.

"It was a f**k up from beginning to end. Every mistake you can make in the 800 I made. Too far off the back, too wide, too diffident, no logic that day" - Seb Coe


From the late 1970s to the mid-1980s, Britain ruled the world of middle-distance running. At the heart of this golden era stood two legends: Sebastian Coe, the Yorkshire-born record breaker, and Steve Ovett, the tough competitor from Brighton. Their fierce rivalry built towards the 1980 Moscow Olympics - but what unfolded stunned fans from both sides of the divide and redefined athletics history.


In this episode of How It All Played Out, ITV’s Mark Pougatch and The Observer’s Paul Hayward revisit Margaret Thatcher’s divided Britain to explore the infamous “Tough vs Toff” clash that gripped a nation. Despite only racing head-to-head seven times in 17 years, Coe vs Ovett became one of sport’s greatest rivalries, combining politics, class, and raw athletic brilliance.


Relive the drama of the 800m and 1500m finals in Moscow 1980: the crushing pressure, the mind games, the upsets, and the unforgettable battles between two British icons. This is the story of style versus strength, grit versus grace, and how two athletes pushed each other into the history books.


If you love stories of Olympic glory, athletic rivalries, and the golden age of track and field, this episode is for you.

Gabby & Mark celebrate the life of a true British sporting icon, “The Hitman” Ricky Hatton. A ferocious fighter who turned boxing into spectacle for an army of fans at a time when the sport seemed lost. A superstar and a proud Mancunian who you genuinely felt like you could go for a drink with and talk about the football, or Oasis.


When he descended on Las Vegas to face Floyd Mayweather, it was as if half of the UK had followed him... His best night? Shocking the great Kostya Tszyu, 20 years ago, in front of a sold out Manchester Arena - Hatton stepped out of the shadows and we fell in love with him.


In retirement he was open about struggles with his own mental health, helping countless people by being brave enough, outside the ring, to talk about it.


Matchroom boss Eddie Hearn discusses the blueprint Hatton laid for the modern UK boxing superstar, Sky Boxing's Andy Clarke reflects on the public's adoration for him and trainer Adam Booth weighs in on his unique skillset.

A special interview today with a sprinter - who ironically - is living proof that it’s NEVER too late to start! Eugene Amo-Dadzie has shot to stardom as ‘The World’s Fastest Accountant’, literally balancing spreadsheets with sport until he was 26 years old!


Last month he tied his hero Linford Christie’s 100M time and became the joint second-fastest British man over 100m (9.87). It’s an amazing story that has led all the way to the start line at this weekend’s World Athletics Championships in Tokyo and you’re gonna love him!


Plus we'll look back on another star-studded week on the show as Gabby hit the trading floors of the City at a charity event to catch up with the likes of John Terry, Michael MacIntyre, Maro Itoje, Keira Walsh and many more.

After Kevin Keegan resigned in the men's loos at Wembley in 2000, the FA decided to hire their first foreign England manager - Sven Goran-Eriksson. He paved the way for Thomas Tuchel, who leads England at the World Cup qualifiers this international break. 


With Sven, the FA got much more than they bargained for. A man with a love for the game, life and women - Eriksson often graced the front and back pages of the newspapers. 


He led the golden generation of Beckham and Rooney, but despite that talent Sven fell short at the quarter-finals. 


So why did the FA decide to open up to foreign managers? Did Eriksson's off-field lifestyle hamper England or was it simply a combination of bad luck, broken metatarsals and the penalty shoot out hoodoo?

Former Super Bowl champion Jason Bell joins Gabby and Mark to talk about the NFL's biggest transfer drama of the summer, which puts the Alexander Isak saga to shame. We're talking about a huge standoff, the highest paid non-quarterback in history and a new Super Bowl favourite. (05:30)


Plus we look back at this week on The Sports Agents. Former Premier League striker, Troy Deeney, joined us after deadline day as we asked, should Marc Guehi should have thrown a transfer tantrum like Isak? And with Olympic medallists still owed millions of dollars from Michael Johnson's Grand Slam Track - what went wrong? That's with The Athletic's Adam Crafton and agent Paul Doyle. (01:00)

When four-time Olympic gold medallist Michael Johnson set up the Grand Slam Track league it was meant to redefine athletics, finally making it popular outside the Olympics. But just a few months after launching the whole thing collapsed: the final event was cancelled and athletes are still owed millions of dollars. So what went wrong? Can they make up the $19m shortfall? And where does this leave the athletes?


We'll be joined by Paul Doyle, agent to more than a dozen athletes who competed at Grand Slam Track, and The Athletic's Adam Crafton who's been investigating why it fell apart.


Plus Gabby and Mark tell stories of Henry Pollock's room mate on the Lions tour, react to Anisimova's comeback after the Wimbledon final disaster, and despair about how much cricket there is, even for cricket fans!

After a dramatic deadline day former Premier League striker Troy Deeney joins Gabby and Mark in the studio. Where does Alexander Isak fit into Liverpool's attack. Where does this leave Marc Guehi who - in contrast to Isak going on strike to force a move - did everything by the book and missed out?


After Liverpool's record-breaking transfer outlay, have their famously thrifty owners, FSG, sensed incoming changes to the current financial fair play rules?


Plus, Gabby and Mark revel in some wholesome Women's Rugby World Cup stories, as Samoa (who crowdfunded to get there) celebrated their first World Cup points in 11 years, and Chloe Kelly turned up to support the Red Roses.

Our guest today, Alice Cooper, fought to set up the first ever Women's Rugby World Cup in 1991, along with three other trailblazing women. It took players selling Russian dolls and vodka to pay their way, organising everything over fax, and Alice losing her job - but they did it. Alice tells Gabby and Mark the story of how they paved the way for this year's World Cup.


Plus, we look back at the best bits from this week's shows: former Nottingham Forest player David Prutton asked, could Mourinho replace Nuno at Forest?! After dream debuts for 16-year-old Rio Ngumoha and 15-year-old Max Dowman, Max's former coach at Arsenal, Temisan Williams, and The Telegraph's Sam Wallace joined us. And comedian and Grimsby fan, Lloyd Griffith, took the mickey out of Mark after their shock Carabao Cup win over Man United.

This week has been dominated by huge teenage Premier League debuts with Rio Ngumoha’s winner for Liverpool and Max Dowman appearing for Arsenal at just 15. 


Dowman’s former coach at the Arsenal academy, Temisan Williams, joins us in the studio alongside The Telegraph’s Chief Football Writer, Sam Wallace.


What made Dowman stand out? How much does it cost clubs to produce academy players? And after reports Man United could sell homegrown Kobbie Mainoo, leaving no Mancunians in the squad, is the trend of cashing in on homegrown talent stripping clubs of their identity?


Comedian and Grimsby fan Lloyd Griffith rubs Mark's nose in it after the fourth tier side knocked Man United out of the Carabao Cup.


Plus, Gabby and Mark react to Keegan Bradley not selecting himself for the Ryder Cup, and Celtic and Rangers' Champions League exits.
