Rory McIlroy nearly hit the pin from 268 yards out on his final hole to set up a tap in Eagle and a place in the final three-ball for the fog delayed third round.
We’ve hit putters with computer screens in. We’ve worn vests that produce 3D models of our swings. Club manufacturers are all working on drivers with computer chips in, whether they admit it or not.

It’s not an iron. It’s definitely not a wood. It’s not a hybrid, and it’s 100% not a driving iron. It’s the new Ping G Crossover, and they feel it’s a club totally in it’s own category.

At 12.05 tonight our dreams come true. Real Star Wars films, about the real Star Wars characters. Now if you're anything like us you've probably got some geeky Star Wars memorabilia. Maybe even some bits from the new film. But have you got any Star Wars golf gear? We've trawled the internet to find the places where golf and Star Wars collide.
It’s no shock to announce that Rory McIlroy has been named the 2015 European Tour Golfer of the Year for the third time in four years. Having won the Race to Dubai three times in four years too, it was the least surprising announcement all season.
Want to buy a piece of infamous sporting history? Bubba Watson is flogging his Orlando mansion, a mansion he bought off Tiger Woods who was living there when his sex scandal broke.
Divers on Friday morning found the body of a man in a pond at a Williamson County golf course in Texas. The man, who has not been positively identified, died while illegally scuba diving for golf balls to sell, said Capt. Mike Gleason of the Williamson County sheriff’s office.
We were lucky enough to sample all of the new Cobra Golf clubs for next year, and we’re pretty sure a lot of you will be playing Cobra’s F6 Irons next season.
