Golf still on course in 2022

There is plenty of golf for fans after the majors

Even if the men's and women's major schedule is almost complete, with just the Women's Open to come at the famous Muirfield links course in Scotland, there is plenty for the fans in the coming months.
Jennifer Kupcho topped the year's first major, the LPGA Tour's Chevron Championship in California, outscoring fellow American Jessica Korda by two strokes to claim her first major title. Kupcho's win kicked off a run of major American winners.

A week later, World number one Scottie Scheffler picked up his first major crown as he held off Rory McIlroy to win The Masters and the right to wear the famous Green Jacket.
The title was Scheffler's fourth in two months but missed the cut at the PGA Championship, where Justin Thomas overcame a seven-stroke deficit to win the Wanamaker Trophy for the second time. 
The run of American major winners ended when Australia's Minjee Lee claimed the U.S. Women's Open with a dominant performance at the Pine Needles course in North Carolina. A few weeks later, another overseas player, Chun In-gee of South Korea, claimed the Women's PGA Championship.
At the U.S. Open, Englishman Matt Fitzpatrick claimed the limelight as the game's newest first-time major champion with a narrow one-shot victory. The big win came nine years after winning the U.S. Amateur at the same venue.
Not to be outdone, Cameron Smith of Australia added his name to the list of maiden major winners with a one-stroke clincher over Cameron Young at 150th Open Championship played at the home of golf, St Andrews.

The latest women's major, The Evian Championship, had the whole of Canada cheering when Brooke Henderson birdied the final hole for a one-shot victory. It was the Canadian's second major title.

The Ryder Cup was originally set for end of September; however, the biennial event has been rescheduled to next year at the Marco Simone Golf and Country Club in Rome.
