What does Trump's return mean for global sport?

So, Donald Trump is back in the White House - and while America has decided, the sporting world remains divided... As the World Cup, Ryder Cup, Olympics and more descend on the US over the next four years, what impact will Trump’s Presidency have on global sport? Is he on a collision course with the International Olympic Committee over transgender ban? Will FIFA’s powers grow thanks to Gianni Infantino’s ‘great friend’? How would he fix golf in 15 minutes? Investigations reporter for The Telegraph Ben Rumsby & Amnesty International's Steve Cockburn join Gabby & Mark to discuss... Later, following Mark Cavendish's retirement, close friend and ex-Team GB teammate, Adam Blythe, joins us to discuss Cav's incredible comeback story and cycling legacy. Plus, The Sports Agents reflect on *that* David Coote video and the potential ramifications for Howard Webb and the PGMOL. 00:00-08:40 - David Coote's rant08:42- 28:13 - Trump's impact on sport28:15-47:55 - Mark Cavendish legacy48:05- 52:08 - Your sporting howlersExecutive Producer: Adonis PratsidesProducer: Sophie PenneyVideo Producer: Sam TrudgillSocial Media Editor: Calum ScotlandTom Hughes is Editor for The News Agents podcast networkVicky Etchells is the Commissioning Editor for GlobalYou can listen to this episode on Alexa - just say "Alexa, ask Global Player to play The Sports Agents".And, the Sports Agents now have merch!
