## Resource

Ewen Murray, the legendary Sky Sports commentator, joins Sliced for our first bonus interview of 2026. He tells us what happened at the Ryder Cup and why it made him want to walk away, what makes good commentary, and where the PGA Tour's international feed is going wrong. There's insight into life inside the commentary box including when Rory McIlroy made history, where that puts him among the great European golfers, and why he so admires Sir Nick Faldo and Butch Harmon. Ewen also tells us about what he'd do to tackle golf's distance problem and reveals that while retirement was the plan, we'll be hearing more of him soon.
