Rory McIlroy is urging Jon Rahm to take up the "generous deal" offered by the DP World Tour, so he can play in the next Ryder Cup at Adare Manor. Photo: Getty ImagesRory McIlroy is stunned Jon Rahm has turned down a “generous deal” from the DP World Tour that could jeopardise his place in Luke Donald’s European Ryder Cup team at Adare Manor. DP World Tour CEO Guy Kinnings said at the announcement of Donald as captain for the third match running that Rahm’s situation was “pretty straightforward”. But the DP World Tour is well within its rights to protect itself as a members’ organisation and as a business. “Look, the Ryder Cup is bigger than any one person,” he said.

Minister for Health Jennifer Carroll MacNeill’s decision to abandon the decade-old plan to relocate the Rotunda to Connolly Hospital in Blanchardstown is welcome and overdue. Nobody should underestimate the difficulty of upgrading a functioning hospital on a protected site at the heart of a Georgian square. Parnell Square is among the earliest and finest of Dublin’s Georgian squares, and the encroachment of 20th-century hospital extensions has already compromised it considerably. Dublin City Council has been slowly, haltingly advancing plans for a cultural quarter anchored by a new city library. Both projects display a too-familiar combination of inertia, incoherence and shifting political priorities.

The European Commission has proposed to effectively bar Chinese companies from building factories to produce solar panels, electric vehicles and other green technology in Europe, unless the venture is half owned by EU entities. The commission proposal would prevent tax breaks or other subsidies schemes encouraging people in EU states to buy EVs from being spent on Chinese-made EVs. In the last decade China has put a big emphasis on dominating industries central to the climate transition, such as EVs and solar panels. More than 90 per cent of the solar panel modules used in the EU are imported from China. The proposal will now be considered by national governments in the Council of the EU, and the European Parliament.

Mr Sanchez, widely regarded as Europe's last major progressive leader, has called the US and Israeli attacks on Iran an "unjustifiable" and "dangerous" military intervention. It was not clear how Mr Trump would have cut off trade with Spain, which is a member of the European Union. "In short, the position of the government of Spain can be summarised in four words," Mr Sanchez said. "We could just fly in and use it," Mr Trump said. However, Mr Trump maintains that the court allows him to instead impose full-scale embargoes on other nations of his choosing.

The Samsung Galaxy 26 Ultra smartphone during a product event in California last month. Samsung has declared time on shoulder-surfing with its new Galaxy S26 Ultra, and it uses one feature to do it.

Additionally, they would drop all appeals and the minimum number of tournaments required to keep DP World Tour membership would jump from two to four. 'If you want to play on the Ryder Cup, you have to be a member of the DP World Tour. 'But the DP World Tour is well within its rights to protect itself as a members organization and as a business. The panel in 2023 ruled in favor of the DP World Tour that it had the right to impose fines as a membership organization. If it rules in the tour's favor in the Rahm case, his membership -- and Ryder Cup eligibility -- would be at risk.
