Sebastian Söderberg equalled the course record at Albatross Golf Resort as he fired an eight-under-par 64 to take the halfway lead at the D+D REAL Czech Masters.

Keegan Bradley said that he felt he was on the right track. “I feel better than ever. I really do,” Bradley said after a practice round for his sixth appearance at The Players Championship. “I know I’ll turn the corner.”
Maybe we've just got too much time on our hands. Maybe we've gone mad, but we’re pretty sure that golf and music have more in common than you may think. So, if golfers were bands, who would they be?
Jordan Spieth is saying that his putter has "friction issues" with greens when they get "shiny." And has asked for a ruling. What on earth is he on about?
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.
