**Rahul Singh on the International Series: “We’re Growing the Game and Staying Inclusive”**

The International Series head, Rahul Singh, recently spoke to Sportskeeda at the Moutai Singapore Open 2025, held at the Singapore Island Country Club. He emphasized that the circuit is constantly working to “grow the game,” reaching new countries and audiences each season. The Asian Tour and LIV Golf-sanctioned event, founded in 2022, has made a point of mixing local talent with experienced, world-class players to bridge the gap between different levels of experience.

Interestingly, Singh alluded to the current divide in world golf and reaffirmed The International Series’ commitment to being an “open house” with “no restrictions” for players from any tour. This year’s Singapore event saw the series visit the SICC for the first time, following earlier expansions into India, the Philippines, and Japan. While Singh acknowledged the Asian Tour’s growth post-LIV Golf’s inception, he chose not to comment on the recent format changes in the Saudi-backed series.

Below is the full interview, touching on the inclusive nature of The International Series, LIV Golf’s partnership with the Asian Tour, the Singapore Open, and more.

### The International Series Debuts at Singapore Island Country Club

**Q: How’s the tournament looking at SICC this year?**

*Rahul Singh:*
It looks great. The golf course is in fantastic shape. The weather should give us some nice, low scores—always great for spectators. While Thursdays and Fridays in Singapore tend to be a bit quieter, I expect the weekend will draw bigger crowds. The setup is impressive, the field is strong, and perhaps most importantly, we’re seeing the return of both the Singapore Open and The International Series. That’s a big highlight for us, and we’re determined to keep the Singapore Open as part of our calendar going forward. We’re now focused on how best to enhance and grow the event—after all, this used to be considered the “Major of Asia”. Hopefully, in time, we’ll see exemptions and increased prestige return to the event.

### Taking the Game to New Venues

**Q: How important is it for The International Series to visit new venues like India, Japan, and the Philippines instead of repeating the same events each year?**

*Singh:*
It’s huge. One of our mandates, through the partnership between LIV Golf and the Asian Tour, is to grow the game—not just by adding prize money or bringing players, but by going into new territories, creating new pathways, expanding our audience, and bringing families and children out to the courses. We’re working to change the perception of golf, especially in Asia, where it’s often seen as an elite sport. In the Philippines for example, we attracted 31,000 spectators, breaking away from the typical small crowds golf used to draw in such markets.

—

### Attracting World-Class Players

**Q: Is the Series always looking to draw more world-class players to new destinations?**

*Singh:*
Absolutely. When we go into markets like India or the Philippines, we know local golf fans want to see the biggest stars up close. Bringing Bryson DeChambeau to India and Dustin Johnson to the Philippines gave fans opportunities they would not normally have. This is massive for audiences and, importantly, for young local players. Imagine a 15-year-old amateur competing in a field with global stars—it’s a motivator, an inspiration, and a career pathway. The presence of international names and meaningful prize money can totally shift how young athletes view golf as a potential future.

—

### Total Inclusivity: Open House Policy

**Q: You have emphasized the Series’ inclusive philosophy. With world golf divided and the PGA Tour banning LIV players, is The International Series open to players from all tours?**

*Singh:*
Absolutely. The International Series is a sanctioned Asian Tour event—we don’t restrict anyone. Our categories are open to the top 300 players worldwide, top local amateurs, major winners, Ryder Cup and Presidents Cup players. We are 100% inclusive. We’ve had Justin Rose play at the Hong Kong Open, and players from across different tours can participate. We are an open house and welcome the best, with no restrictions.

—

### Partnership with LIV Golf and Growth Goals

**Q: The International Series works in conjunction with LIV Golf. Is it now where you envisioned, or is there more growth ahead?**

*Singh:*
It’s definitely still growing. We’re part of a larger LIV Golf ecosystem, which includes 14 league events, 10 International Series events, and the promotions event. Coordination is vital—if International Series events clashed with LIV Golf events, players would have to choose. We work hard to schedule series events before or after LIV Golf events, maximizing both attendance and player participation.

—

### Pathways to LIV Golf

**Q: The International Series Rankings now offer two qualification spots into LIV Golf. Could there be more in future?**

*Singh:*
There are actually two spots from the rankings and two from the promotions event. Around 30 International Series players will have the chance to compete in the promotion event. Our focus is on providing pathways for all players—through Q-School, the Asian Development Tour, the Asian Tour, the International Series, the LIV Golf League, and the Majors. It’s the responsibility of any tour to provide a real, tangible ladder for talent.

—

### LIV Golf’s Recent Format Change

**Q: Any thoughts on LIV Golf’s recent format announcements?**

*Singh:*
That’s best answered by the league. We are a tour-sanctioned series and play 72 holes, so in that sense, we say: welcome to the party.

—

### Standout Asian Golf Nations and New Destinations

**Q: Which Asian golf nation has surprised you the most?**

*Singh:*
The response in the Philippines was overwhelming—over 31,000 turned out, surpassing expectations. India has also been an important and successful stop. Japan has been a significant addition for us. We’re continually looking at both established and emerging golf markets, including destinations like Vietnam and, hopefully one day, Cambodia. In fact, a sponsor wanted to bring the series to Cambodia—an eye-opener for a golf event, given it’s such a new market.

—

### Season Finale in Saudi Arabia

**Q: What are your expectations for the season-ender in Saudi Arabia?**

*Singh:*
It’s going to be highly competitive. The Saudi event carries more ranking points due to its elevated prize money. This week will set things up perfectly for the finale, where a great performance could dramatically shake up the rankings. All the top 10 players have their eyes on the top two spots, so we’re set for an exciting finish.

—

**Conclusion**

The International Series continues to expand golf’s reach across Asia, focusing on inclusivity, opportunity, and excitement in every event. With its commitment to growing the sport and providing new career pathways, the series is set to play a defining role in shaping the future of golf across the region and beyond.

“Biden Administration Policies Led to a 0% Market Share in China”, Claims NVIDIA’s Jensen Huang, as He Hopes for a Breakthrough in the Region

**NVIDIA’s CEO Jensen Huang Comments on Loss of China Market Share During Biden Administration**

NVIDIA’s China AI market has been shrouded in uncertainty for quite some time, largely due to the restrictions the company has faced under both the Biden administration and the current U.S. government policies. While NVIDIA’s Ampere and Hopper lineups did not encounter significant barriers initially— with AI chips like the A100 and H100 being supplied to Beijing without export controls — the landscape changed once AI became mainstream. Restrictions introduced during the Biden administration gradually took effect, significantly hindering NVIDIA’s business in China.

Speaking to the media, CEO Jensen Huang made a striking statement regarding the company’s market share in China during the Biden era:

*“Today, we have 0%. At the beginning of the Biden administration, we had 95%. The policies of that administration really caused us to lose practically the entire China market. I would guess that China is probably something like $35 to $50 billion a year to us if we are fully in that market today. By the end of the decade, it’s probably well over $100 billion. It’s quite substantial, but at the moment, it’s zero.”*

Huang’s comments likely allude to policies similar to the AI Diffusion Act, which sought to regulate the flow of American technology based on geopolitical considerations. When this legislation was proposed, NVIDIA publicly opposed it in a dedicated blog post.

In response to escalating export controls, NVIDIA launched the H20 AI chip specifically for China to comply with new restrictions. Additionally, the company manufactured a tailored version of its consumer GPU, the RTX 5090D, to meet regional market demands. However, NVIDIA’s declining market share is not solely attributed to the Biden administration.

Under the Trump administration, NVIDIA faced its own set of challenges: the H20 AI chip sales in China were temporarily halted and only resumed after NVIDIA agreed to a “revenue sharing” model with the U.S. government.

Moreover, strained U.S.-China trade relations led to setbacks on the Chinese side as well, with domestic regulators reportedly encouraging Chinese Big Tech firms to avoid using NVIDIA’s AI chips.

While the veracity of Jensen Huang’s specific claims is a separate discussion, the current state of the market is clear—NVIDIA currently has no foothold in China’s AI chip sector. Huang is optimistic about reentering the market, particularly with NVIDIA’s upcoming Blackwell architecture, but time is running out for the company to regain traction in this critical region.

Asian shares gain as Trump says he expects a trade deal with China

**Asian Shares Rally as U.S. Futures Jump; Japan’s Nikkei 225 Tops 50,000 for the First Time**

*BANGKOK (AP)* — Asian shares surged and U.S. futures climbed on Monday, buoyed by strong performances from Japan’s benchmark Nikkei 225, which surpassed the 50,000 mark for the first time in history. Positive developments in trade relations between the U.S., China, and other major trading partners contributed to the upbeat market sentiment.

U.S. President Donald Trump visited Malaysia for a summit with Southeast Asian nations, where he reached preliminary trade agreements with Malaysia, Thailand, Cambodia, and Vietnam. Meanwhile, a trade deal between the United States and China appeared closer to fruition. Officials from both of the world’s largest economies announced on Sunday that they had reached an initial consensus, setting the stage for Trump and Chinese leader Xi Jinping to work toward finalizing the deal during a high-stakes meeting later in the week.

“This isn’t just photo-op diplomacy. Behind the showmanship, Washington and Beijing’s top trade lieutenants have quietly mapped out a framework that might, just might, keep the world’s two largest economies from tearing up the field again,” said Stephen Innes of SPI Asset Management in a commentary.

Following Malaysia, Trump was scheduled to visit Japan before concluding his Asian tour in South Korea, where he is expected to meet Xi Jinping on the sidelines of the Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation (APEC) forum.

A report released Monday by the APEC secretariat forecast that annual growth in the Pacific region will slow to 3% this year from 3.6% last year, partly due to trade restrictions and higher tariffs.

### Japan’s Market Rally

In Japan, newly installed Prime Minister Sanae Takaichi enjoys high levels of public support for her market-friendly policies. The Nikkei 225 index climbed 2.1% to 50,329.08, hitting record intraday highs. Takaichi, Japan’s first female prime minister, favors raising defense spending, boosting stocks of major defense contractors such as Kawasaki Heavy Industries, which rose 8.7%. Other defense-related companies also gained, with IHI Corp. up 2.6% and Hitachi increasing 2.7%.

Trump has frequently criticized Japan for restricting access to its auto market, citing it as one justification for imposing tariffs of 25%—later reduced to 15%—on Japan, one of America’s most vital Asian allies. In response, the Japanese government has proposed purchasing a fleet of Ford F-150 trucks for inspecting roads and infrastructure, signaling openness to U.S. products.

### Gains Across Asia-Pacific Markets

South Korea saw shares surge as well, with the Kospi rising 2% to a record 4,018.73. Investors are optimistic about a possible trade agreement with the United States. Chinese markets also posted solid gains: Hong Kong’s Hang Seng increased by 1% to 26,427.34, and the Shanghai Composite rose 1% to 3,991.35.

In Australia, the S&P/ASX 200 picked up 0.3% to 9,047.40, while Taiwan’s Taiex gained 2.1%, and India’s Sensex was up 0.5%.

### U.S. Stocks Hit Records

On Friday, U.S. stocks reached record highs after inflation data proved less severe than anticipated. The S&P 500 rose 0.8% to 6,791.69, surpassing its previous all-time high set earlier this month. The Dow Jones Industrial Average rallied 1% to 47,207.12, and the Nasdaq composite climbed 1.1% to a record 23,204.87.

The encouraging inflation figures suggest less financial strain for lower- and middle-income households grappling with high price increases. More importantly for Wall Street, the data may clear the way for the Federal Reserve to continue cutting interest rates to support a slowing job market.

The Fed cut its main interest rate last month for the first time this year but has so far been cautious about additional cuts due to concerns that lower rates might exacerbate inflation.

Most large U.S. companies reported stronger-than-expected profits last quarter, further raising hopes for steady economic growth.

### Commodities and Currency Movements

Early Monday trading saw U.S. benchmark crude oil rise 15 cents to $61.65 per barrel, while Brent crude, the international standard, increased 12 cents to $65.32 per barrel. The U.S. dollar strengthened against the Japanese yen to 153.15 from 152.85 yen. Conversely, the euro slipped to $1.1622 from $1.1636.

Florida bill would allow families to sue for killings by illegal migrants, fine police refusing to work with ICE

Posted on by

A Republican Florida state lawmaker proposed a bill Monday that would open up opportunities for families to sue some local governments over killings committed by illegal immigrants.

The Shane Jones Act, which would expand on the Sunshine State’s staunch immigration laws, was authored in honor of its namesake, who was killed in a traffic accident involving an alleged illegal immigrant in 2019.

Rep. Berny Jacques, who introduced the bill, said that Jones’ widowed wife, Nikki, helped inspire the legislation. The bill would impose harsher restrictions on illegal immigrants and even law enforcement officials who violate the state’s immigration policies.

“For too long, American families have been left to pick up the pieces after their loved ones were taken from them by crimes that could have been prevented,” Nikki Jones said in a press release. “The Shane Jones Act represents a turning point, finally holding local governments accountable when they fail to enforce immigration laws.”

The bill outlines a new structure allowing families to sue local governments over the death of a loved one, but only if an illegal immigrant is found to be responsible. It also proposes a $10,000 fine for out-of-compliance law enforcement agencies, which would go toward compensation for the grieving families.

Jacques insisted that the current immigration laws in Florida “require that law enforcement agencies collaborate with federal immigration enforcement officers,” according to a press release.

In the Sunshine State, the law mandates that police agencies use their “best efforts” to work with Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE), though none are currently required to enter into 287(g) agreements with the federal agency.

The state further argued that no city or police department can cancel the partnerships once they have been agreed to, warning that doing so would be an act of defiance against Florida’s mandate.

Introduction To Prop Firm Trading: What You Need To Know

Posted on by

**How Prop Firm Trading Really Works: A Practical Guide**

*Written By: Follow TheCryptoBasic*

—

The fundamental concept of prop firm trading revolves around delivering consistent market advantages to a firm that provides funding, risk management systems, and then shares the profits with you. Transitioning from self-funded operations to partnered capital shifts your business incentives, risk management approaches, and performance evaluation methods.

The main reason retail traders seek top prop trading firms is to grow their trading business without risking personal capital.

—

### How Prop Firms Actually Work (Without the Fluff)

Most established programs follow a similar educational progression. The initial assessment tests your ability to follow predefined rules related to daily loss limits, total drawdowns, news trading restrictions, and hitting realistic profit targets while maintaining a safe risk level.

Once you pass, you move to a funded account that comes with position size restrictions and payout conditions. Successful trading here allows you to increase your buying capacity over time. From this point, your job is to make consistent, disciplined trading your routine — boring but effective.

—

### What to Look For in a Prop Firm (The Practical Checklist)

Before signing up, make sure you understand the rules that will govern your day-to-day trading. For a neutral baseline on why these guardrails matter, consider skimming the [CFTC’s trading guidance](https://www.cftc.gov/).

Then compare firms using these criteria:

– **Risk Transparency:** Clear daily loss caps, equity-based drawdown limits, and understandable news trading rules.
– **Payment Reality:** Frequency of payouts, minimum payout amounts, and documentation requirements. Speed and clarity are more valuable than flashy headlines.
– **True Costs:** Commissions, exchange/data fees, and any hidden markups that could erode profits.
– **Scaling Path:** Transparent milestones to increase buying power, and whether position sizes are reduced after drawdowns.
– **Platform Stability:** Reliable order routing, fast quotes, and bracket orders that automatically attach stops.
– **Support & Learning:** Access to real human support and communities that emphasize process over hype.

—

### Rules Aren’t Red Tape — They’re Fuel for Focus

Company frameworks protect both the firm’s financial assets and your mental well-being. Equity-based limits serve as real-time tracking tools, helping you monitor your open risk positions accurately.

The “3R daily cap” acts as a protective barrier, preventing one bad hour from destroying your entire week. Two high-quality attempts early in your session are more productive than ten impulsive trades.

Restrictions breed freedom—they reduce poor decisions and improve operational performance over time.

—

### Daily Routine Essentials (Simple and Purposeful)

You don’t need a complicated strategy; you need one setup that performs well even on a tired Tuesday.

– **Keep risk fixed per trade** (your “1R”) and adjust ticket size according to stop distance.
– **Create an environment that enforces discipline:**

– One-minute preflight check: Confirm symbol is whitelisted, stops are auto-attached, higher timeframe levels visible, news window clear, and equity alerts armed.
– Execution rules: Limit yourself to two high-quality setups per session; walk away if you hit −3R loss. No pep talks, no “just one more.”
– After a volatility spike: Treat the next session as consolidation day — baseline size or reduce by 20%; max two A-quality setups.
– Maintain a journal noting instruments traded, net P&L in R, worst equity dip, one behavior to repeat or remove, plus two screenshots (cleanest win and costliest mistake).

—

### Evaluations: Why Good Traders Still Fail

Focus on pursuing the process rather than obsessing over the target itself. Most rule breaches by traders happen due to euphoria after a winning day or impulsive decisions during limited market windows.

Pre-set templates and alert systems work better than willpower alone. Use order tickets that calculate position size automatically and display equity balance with a −2R alert leading to a hard stop at −3R.

The system signals when to stop trading—follow it without exception. This disciplined practice leads to more traders getting funded than any secret entry method.

—

### Payouts, Splits, and What Really Matters

An “80%+” profit split looks attractive in advertising, but the real value lies in operational details:

– Are payouts weekly or bi-weekly?
– Are payout thresholds reasonable?
– Do confirmations and bank receipts align cleanly?

Predictable cash flow builds trust and reduces cognitive load, which otherwise interferes with execution.

—

### Part-Time Traders Can Absolutely Pass

Dedicate 60-90 minutes of uninterrupted time to trade around London pullbacks, New York momentum, and Asia mean-reversion patterns.

Create one simple trading plan *before the bell*—for example: “Buy pullbacks above X, fade price moves below Y.” This one-sentence plan helps filter out half your impulses.

Consistency beats duration.

—

### Mindset Is the Quiet Lever

Fear and euphoria are part of trading; pretending otherwise only amplifies their impact.

When nerves creep in, use a quick stress reset:

– Slow your breathing.
– Return to your checklist.
– Let the next step—not the past outcome—drive your decisions.

Over time, this routine guides you toward consistent modest wins (tidy red days and steadier green ones).

—

### Bottom Line

Prop firm trading is a partnership structure. The firm provides financial backing, organizational support, and regulatory protection to enable your small but consistent trading edge and disciplined approach.

Start with one trading setup and a fixed stop size while monitoring equity carefully. Perform basic preflight checks to prevent costly errors. Trading evaluation will evolve into automated processes that foster a more peaceful, professional trading environment.

Windows 10 support ends tomorrow: Here’s what comes next

**Windows 10 Support Ends Tomorrow: Here’s What Comes Next**

*By Dwaipayan Roy | Oct 13, 2025 | 05:47 pm*

After nearly a decade of dominance, Microsoft is officially ending support for Windows 10. Starting tomorrow, the tech giant will no longer provide free security updates for the operating system, posing significant risks for the millions of PCs still running it.

### What This Means for Users

Microsoft has been warning users about this change for months, but many are still uncertain about their next steps as the deadline approaches. Without ongoing security updates, Windows 10 machines may become vulnerable to cyberattacks, making it crucial to act promptly.

### Upgrade Hurdles: Hardware Restrictions

According to Forbes, nearly 200 million computers cannot upgrade to Windows 11 due to hardware incompatibility. For these devices, options are limited. Users may need to enroll in Microsoft’s Extended Security Update (ESU) program to continue receiving critical updates—or run an unsupported version of Windows 10, which comes with increased security risks.

### Importance of Backing Up Your Data

Whether you choose to upgrade to Windows 11, enroll in ESU, or continue using an unsupported system, backing up your data is essential. Transitioning between operating systems or updates carries the risk of glitches and data loss. To protect your information, create a full PC backup or safeguard your most important files using cloud storage or external drives.

### Disposal Guidelines: Protecting Your Personal Data

If you plan to recycle or resell your old PC, Microsoft strongly recommends using Windows 10’s built-in erase feature to wipe personal data securely. This precaution helps prevent your information from falling into the wrong hands. The same advice applies to parting ways with smartphones or other devices.

### The Upgrade Push and Criticism

Consumer advocacy groups have voiced concerns that millions of users cannot afford new machines right now, making Microsoft’s push for upgrades feel out of touch with many people’s needs. Nonetheless, Microsoft continues encouraging users to move toward newer devices, especially those equipped with the company’s latest AI features like Copilot.

—

With Windows 10 support ending, it’s important to evaluate your options carefully and take steps to protect your data and device. Whether upgrading or opting for extended security updates, preparation is key as the tech landscape moves forward.

Packing tips for your next trip

**Packing for a Trip: Tips to Pack Efficiently and Stress-Free**

Packing for a trip can be a daunting task, especially if you’re short on time. However, with a few strategic tips, you can pack efficiently and ensure that you have everything you need without the stress. This article provides practical insights into how to organize your belongings quickly and effectively, making your travel experience smoother. Whether it’s a weekend getaway or an extended vacation, these tips will help you maximize space and minimize hassle.

### Tip 1: Choose the Right Luggage

Selecting appropriate luggage is key to efficient packing. Consider the length of your trip and the type of activities you’ll be engaging in. A small suitcase or a large backpack may suffice for short trips, while longer journeys might require more space.

Ensure that your luggage meets airline size restrictions if you’re flying. A well-chosen bag not only fits all your essentials but also makes transportation easier.

### Tip 2: Roll Clothes for Space Efficiency

Rolling clothes instead of folding them can save a lot of space in your suitcase. This technique minimizes wrinkles and allows you to fit more items into less space.

Start by rolling larger items like pants first, then move to smaller ones like shirts and socks. Not only does this method maximize packing efficiency, but it also makes unpacking at your destination easier.

### Tip 3: Utilize Packing Cubes

Packing cubes are a game-changer when it comes to organizing clothes and accessories. These small fabric containers help compartmentalize different categories of items within your suitcase, such as tops, bottoms, or underwear.

By keeping things separated, you can easily find what you need without rummaging through everything. Packing cubes also add an extra layer of compression that saves more space.

### Tip 4: Limit Toiletries with Travel Sizes

Toiletries tend to take the most space in your luggage if you don’t keep them in check. Stick to travel-sized containers or refillable bottles for liquids like shampoo, conditioner, and lotion.

Most airlines have restrictions on liquid volumes over 100ml per container in hand luggage, so check those guidelines before packing. Keeping toiletries minimal not only saves space but also lightens your load.

### Tip 5: Plan Outfits in Advance

Planning outfits ahead of time is an efficient way to avoid overpacking. Pick versatile pieces that can be mixed and matched easily for different occasions during your trip.

Consider weather conditions at your destination when choosing clothing items, so that you don’t pack unnecessary layers or accessories. Planning outfits also helps ensure that all packed items serve a purpose during your travels.

With these simple yet effective packing tips, you can enjoy a smoother, more organized travel experience—free from last-minute packing stress. Safe travels!
