America’s Gary Woodland shot a 65 to take the lead in the US Open and join Justin Rose and Tiger Woods in the record books with the joint lowest score in a US Open at Pebble Beach. He leads England’s Justin Rose, who added a round of 70 to his own 65, by two shots as they go into the weekend.
Have you been trying to predict the outcome of some of golf’s biggest tournaments and events but haven’t had much luck, or perhaps tried to predict the total amount of shots a player will take for a hole and have gotten it completely wrong? If so, then it’s pretty apparent that you might need a hand with betting on golf.
It’s an early rise for us on day two and a slightly thick head, that Schnapps for the road wasn't a great idea after all! After an excellent breakfast at the hotel we are off to experience two more courses. It will be an entirely different experience from the first day as the courses are located in undulating valley landscapes.
Tiger has created a whole new golf course prototype. It's called the Oasis, a short course at the Diamante Cabo San Lucas Resort that can be played as a 12-hole par 3, or a 3-hole course featuring a par 3, 4 and 5!
I’m a huge fan of Donald Ross-designed golf courses. Many people associate Donald Ross with ultra-challenging courses that feature small domed greens a la Pinehurst #2, but if you study Donald Ross, you’ll find that nothing could be further from the truth. His greens typically have a lot of undulation, but domed greens were definitely not his calling card.
Thama Jeffrey Nkonyane will collect the biggest cheque of his 32–year long career after helping Graeme Storm to victory in the SA Open.
Defending champion Emily Kristine Pedersen is back at a golf course where she found success as she returns to Saudi Arabia and the scene of her triumph in 2020.
Colin Montgomerie won the Champions Tour’s Invesco QQQ Championship last weekend, but the big story was one Billy Mayfair and the breaking of not one but two rules of golf. The story does not paint Mr Mayfair in a good light and the same must be said about the Champions Tour who seem to be trying to sweep the incidents under the carpet.
It was as you were at Wentworth as both overnight leaders shot four-under-par rounds of 68 to extend their lead to three shot over the field. Chasing them are Englishman Justin Rose, South African Christiaan Bezuidenhout, who both carded 69, and India’s Shubhankar Sharma who had one of the round of the day, a six-under 66.
Lee Cox, head PGA Professional at The Shire London, is long driving coach to long driving champion Joe Miller. Here’s the story behind their winning partnership.
Lydia Ko didn’t let the small matter of an earthquake get in the way of her winning the New Zealand Women’s Open, her third victory at the event in four years. We guess that’s why she is the world’s number one woman golfer.
Five of the world’s top-ranked players: No.1 Lydia Ko, No.2 Nelly Korda, No.3 Minjee Lee, No.6 Brooke Henderson and 2022 Champion and World No.5 Jin Young Ko were at Sentosa Golf Club today to open the 15th edition of the HSBC Women’s World Championship, Singapore, 2-5 March.
