Cristie Kerr fired a super third round 65 to soar up the Lacoste Ladies Open De France Leaderboard. Emily Kristine Pedersen leads on -11, Charley Hull is six shots back after a 68 and GolfPunk Golf Nurse Carly Booth is in 14th place at -2 after a third round 71.
Dustin Johnson has had some year. His sabbatical didn't seem to affect his golf, as he came out firing on all cylinders winning the WGC Cadillac Championship. He's had a son, Tatum, with the lovely Paulina Gretzky. And he came within a putt of the winning the US Open. So it's no surprise he fancied treating himself to a new house.
Jason Day had a nice stroll in the park today. No one came anywhere near challenging, and he won with a totally comfortable six shot victory over Daniel Berger. It was more about who would be going to the Tour Championship. Here's who.
Will it be a three-peat for Belgium as Niccolas Colsaerts blew away the field at the Italian Open? His 63 included 8 consecutive birdies.
"After you, sir." "No I insist, after you!" "Alright then, but once I've holed this tee shot I insist you follow me in, sir." "It will be my pleasure, my friend." What we're trying to say is that two golfers scored aces one after the other on the same hole whilst playing a match.
OK, we did get a bit carried away on Twitter posting Al Geiberger's 59 at Colonial in 1977, but Jason Day was so blazing it up today that we got more than slightly over excited. We have now calmed down a bit, but not by much.

Golfer's Gaffs: And by that we mean their incredible houses that we are insanely jealous of... No1: Hunter Mahan's overblown man cave which we are thinking about buying, converting into GP office space and putting a ferris wheel through the middle of it so we don't have to walk up stairs...
Someone who really caught our eye this weekend at The Barclays from Plainfield Country Club was one Zac Blair. He finished tied 4th with Zach Johnson on -10 and nine shots off the winner Jason Day.
As Morrissey once sang, “Heaven knows I’m miserable now”. And as the heavens have opened, it’s chucking it down outside. When all we realy want to be doing is following a little white orb around a prepared field of grass with holes cut into it, making said orb disappear down a hole 18 times. But help is at hand as we’ve got some of the latest waterproofs for your perusal to help keep you dry when you want to let it fly…
We only saw this late today on Twitter, and it certainly got our curiosity. Who was Dicky Pride, and what was his scrawled piece of paper all about? We loved it, retweeted it, and promised that we’d keep an eye on developments.
Jason Day won the Barclays in an absolute procession, his 19 under par score was six shots better than second placed Henrik Stenson. The Australian golfer has continued his form from the PGA Championship and was in a different league to the rest of the field as he took his fourth title of the season.
