Laurie Canter followed up his incredible first round of 60 at the Italian Open with a four-under-par 68 to take a two shot lead going into the weekend at Chervò Golf Club. 38-year-old McGowan carded a bogey-free round of 64 to keep Canter in his sights as he bids to lift a European Tour trophy for the first time since the 2009 Madrid Masters.
It’s déjà vu for Mel Reid as she finds herself in the same position entering the final round of the ShopRite LPGA Classic presented by Acer as two weeks ago at the Cambia Portland Classic: the 54-hole leader. This time, she holds a one-shot advantage on the Bay Course at Seaview, A Dolce Hotel, at 15-under-par overall, rather than a two-stroke margin.
Justin Walters made the most of the favourable early conditions to post a brilliant bogey free 64 and open up a three shot lead on an opening day of the 2020 ISPS HANDA UK Championship where four hours were lost to the weather.

The new Titleist 818 hybrids incorporate tour–proven Titleist driver technology to create the longest, most accurate Titleist hybrids ever.
Now that Tiger has been sidelined for the rest of the season, at best, he's going to need something to occupy his time. And it looks like it is going to be golf course design which is going to be his new focus.
