England's Matt Wallace birdied four of his last six holes to win the Corales Puntacana Championship by a shot from Nicolai Hojgaard of Denmark. The 32-year-old finished on nineteen-under-par, with Hojgaard claiming sole ownership of second place. The Dane had the chance to force a playoff with a twenty-foot birdie putt on the last but missed to give Wallace a one-stroke victory.
Nicolai Højgaard held off a stellar chasing pack to claim his maiden European Tour title with a one shot victory at the DS Automobiles Italian Open which saw him create history alongside his twin brother Rasmus. The Danish 20-year-olds become the first brothers to win back-to-back events on the European Tour after Rasmus Højgaard won last week's Omega European Masters in Switzerland.
Bryson Dechambeau, Scottie Scheffler and Max Homa (-6) are the American trio atop the leaderboard following a second blustury afternoon at Augusta National. Conditions were challenging for all, with forceful, gusting winds causing balls to move on greens, sand to be blown from bunkers and a generally cumbersome pace of play.
The low scoring on the LPGA continued at the LA Open where Jessica Korda followed up her opening round seven-under 64 with a flawless second round 65. The 28-year-old, who won the season’s first event at the Diamond Resorts Tournament of Champions, looks good for a wire-to-wire win at Wilshire Country Club this week.
Robert Rock of England came close to being only the second man to shoot 59 on the European Tour. After a string of five consecutive birdies, Rock had an eagle chance at the 18th hole at Lahinch to achieve the historic landmark. His long putt from the edge of the green went agonisingly close but missed on the left, leaving Rock to tap in for his sixth consecutive birdie, a back nine of 29 and a third round 60.
