It’s European Champions Cup week, and after a barnstorming debut from Leinster’s new signing James Lowe and the return from injury of Garry Ringrose, the options ahead of their big match against Exeter ‘Moneyball’ Chiefs look impressive.

Meanwhile, the dark clouds around Peter O’Mahony’s future at Thomond Park are casting a shadow down south – we ask Gerry Thornley how the IRFU factor charisma into their balance sheet.

Tiger Woods is back, and he looks happy, he looks relaxed… and he looks like a pretty good golfer. After a solid mid-table finish in a high-class field in the Bahamas on Sunday, Lawrence Donegan tells us where the ceiling is for this latest, re-modelled version of Tiger, and how it might have been the best swing he’s seen from him since 2007.

There’s a welcome, much-sought-after return for David Attenborough analogies, the chipping yips, and playing GAA in the gloom of a December afternoon.
