Dustin Johnson and model girlfriend Paulina Gretzky jetted off for a family holiday following the big man’s win at Augusta.

For the first time in her LPGA Tour career, Sophia Popov is the outright first-round leader. The 2020 AIG Women’s Open champion set a career-low opening-round of 64 at Pelican Golf Club this afternoon and holds a two-stroke advantage in the inaugural Pelican Women’s Championship presented by DEX Imaging and Konica Minolta.

Not since the heydays of one Tiger Woods have we seen such a dominant performance. Johnson was out of the traps fast with his opening seven-under-par 65 and despite a slightly lacklustre showing on Friday he stormed it from there. Add to this that the lucky so and so is engaged to the lovely Paulina Gretzky and he is a really genuinely nice guy and we are somewhat jealous! Course conditions

It has thrown the plans of golfers into the air, but we have seen events running every week for some time now, so there can be no claims of rustiness or a lack of practice.
Six-time Major champion and golf course designer, Sir Nick Faldo, anticipates strategy as being the key to win around his Dubai-based course ahead of the iconic Ladies European Tour event, the 2020 OMEGA Dubai Moonlight Classic. “This is a unique event, absolutely, and it will do a great deal to highlight where the Ladies game is at right now.”

Jack Nicklaus has caused somewhat of a Twitter storm by releasing a statement supporting Donald Trump. It seems many do not share the Golden Bear's admiration for the President of the United States and many of the responses contain some rather fruity language. The negatives responses' to Jack's statement included statements such as "Disappointing to see this from such a sports legend."
In 2007 Dr Jason Wersland was involved in a traumatic motorcycle accident. The accident left him in debilitating muscle and nerve pain, and nothing he tried seemed to help. His search for a device to help with his pain led to the birth of the Theragun®.
Like many tall men of which I am a more extreme version, I suffer from lower back problems. This back pain is incredibly annoying when it impacts on my golf. However, hard one tries to hit through the pain the subconscious kicks in and tries to protect the body by limiting the swing.
