Summary

These are tough days for what was once the European Tour. In this episode, Mark, Lou, and Greg talk about the conclusion of the DP World Tour season, and especially the fact that the top ten players on that tour are issued playing privileges on the PGA Tour. Is this sustainable? Does the DP World Tour have any better options than to be a development tour for the American tour?
