Taylor Moore claimed his first PGA Tour title on Sunday at the Valspar Championship after a final-round four-under-par 67 saw him home by a single shot. Overnight leader Adam Schenk almost forced a playoff, but his long-range putt at the last agonisingly bounced off the pin, leaving him to rue what might have been.

The PGA Tour will kick off on 11 June with the Charles Schwab Challenge in Texas. However, players and caddies returning to the USA for the tour face the headache of 14 days in isolation due to the strict quarantine rules in place in the USA.
The fairy tale has slowly unwound. Local boy, Darren Clarke, who led the field off on Thursday in the 148th Open Championship, took seven at the last to miss the cut. Rory McIlroy, who famously shot 61 around Royal Portrush at the age of 16, shot 65, equalling best score of the day, but agonisingly missed the cut by one. And our man, Gmac, held firm just making it through on the cut line, nine back from the leader.

The signs are not good for Rory to prevail here in Texas. Only one player, Dustin Johnson, who lost their opening match last year went on to make the last 16.
England’s Tyrrell Hatton shot a four under 68 to take the lead in Abu Dhabi by a single shot. But he’s got a very strong chasing pack hot on his heels.
