Although it wasn’t the red number that 36-hole leader Hannah Green was looking for on Moving Day at the Palos Verdes Championship presented by Bank of America, she was still very proud of her grit on day three.
It was fitting that on Anzac Day it should be an Australian pairing that won the Zurich Classic on Sunday. Cameron Smith and Marc Leishman carded a final-round two-under final round to tie with South Africa's Louis Oosthuizen and Charl Schwartzel on twenty-under-par. The Aussies then grabbed the spoils at the first extra hole.
Ever since we started GolfPunk back in the day, we've had a slightly irrational desire to go and play golf in Mauritius. I mean, who wouldn't? But, somehow it never seemed attainable. The very idea of it seems so out of reach, right?... the Indian Ocean, white sands, fancy cocktails and golf shots across the ocean.

Brooks Koepka had just teed off in the final round of the Open.

The guy looked confused as he suddenly wasn’t sure about something. Was it the wind had shifted? Had he changed his mind at to which club to take? Or perhaps he’d left the cooker on back at the house? Whatever it was he’d been standing on that tee for a good few minutes waiting for his tee time and he clearly was not ready.
Lydia Ko has waited a long time to add to her haul of LPGA titles but she emphatically ended the drought at the Lotte Championship in Hawaii on Saturday. Going bogey-free for the third day running, Ko shot a final-round 65 to win by seven strokes.
It seemed that no one wanted to win the Wyndham Championship as one by one the contenders failed to reach the magic sixteen-under total that would have secured the victory. In the end, it came down to the PGA Tour's first six-way play-off and it was Kevin Kisner who held his nerve best to win at the second extra hole.
I am not sure what all the fuss is about as I’m with Rory on this one. I too am fed up of shooting fifteen over par every week at my club and not winning a competition. I am going to write to the committee and insist they rethink the course as clearly there is something very wrong going on.
