Phil Mickelson is finally expected to return from the wilderness and compete at a LIV Golf event in South Africa later this week with the Masters on the horizon. This week's LIV event is the last one before the first major of the calendar. Mickelson endured a tough time at the Majors in 2025, missing the cut in three of the four - including at Augusta. His highest finish in his final six LIV events in 2025 was tied 23rd, too. His LIV absence came at a bad time for the Saudi-backed rebel tour, too.

Lifestyle Sports, DID Electrical, Rathwood and Boots also pleaded guilty to breaking sales pricing laws last year.

Sad state of Anglesey roadside inn built alongside Thomas Telford's A5 highwayThere are now new plans to revive the Listed siteView 3 Images Mona Inn on AngleseyAn historic inn built to serve Thomas Telford's A5 highway from London to Holyhead is now in a sad state. Mona Inn was erected next to the famous route near Llangefni in the early 19th century.

SSE Airtricity Premier Division: Shelbourne 0 Bohemians 0Tension surged throughout this Tolka Park derby clash following a pre-match flare-up between both sets of players and the respective coaching teams. Shelbourne only got motoring late in the half and while they enjoyed good possession, very little fell their way in the Bohemians box. Myers was such a handful and remained central to Bohemians’ best work, teeing up Ross Tierney who drew another good save from Speel. The contest just lacked a moment of quality to settle it either way on a night when the pre-match shenanigans provided the drama. BOHEMIANS: Chorazka; Power, Hickey Todd, Mullen; Devoy, Flores (McDonnell 75) ; Myers (Strods 75), Tierney, Parsons (Vaughan 82); Whelan.

The ongoing conflict in the Middle East and its impact on energy markets raises significant uncertainty in the outlook for inflation and growth in 2026. In percentage terms, the ramp-up in oil prices is akin to the shock in 2022, but back then, oil peaked at about $130 per barrel. This week, the war will remain front and centre, with markets keeping a close eye on several central bank meetings, as the US Federal Reserve, Bank of England, and European Central Bank announce their latest policy decisions. Interest rate expectations have risen in response to the conflict, as the risk of another inflation shock emerges due to higher energy prices. While not quite enough to knock the European economy into recession, this would be a material shock to growth if replicated in 2026.

Gerry Adams may have "spectacularly deluded" himself into thinking he was not in the Provisional IRA by virtue of his leadership role, the British High Court has heard. Mr Adams denies ever being in the Provisional IRA and is defending the claim. He said his interest in Mr Adams was "sparked by the direction" in which he seemed to be taking the Provisional IRA. The court heard this included members of the Royal Ulster Constabulary Special Branch but also former and serving members of the Provisional IRA who had allegedly known Mr Adams from the start of his IRA and Provisional IRA membership. 'Desperate'Edward Craven, for Mr Adams, put to Mr Ware that he was "desperate" for this evidence to be part of the case.
