Pace of play has at last risen up the agenda, and now even the R&A are rising to the challenge of how to fix this frustrating part of playing a round of golf. And here's what Stephen Gallagher has proposed.
Marc Leishman hasn’t had many opportunities in recent years to enter the final round of a golf tournament as the solo leader.

He leads by two shots over Sergio Garcia going into Sunday’s final round at The Gallery Golf Club.

Everyone loves Beef Johnson, what’s not to like? He is a lovely chap and is nice to everyone both on and off the course and boy can he play golf.
