Time for the women’s majors

The men’s majors are over and so attention turns to the women, or ladies as they were referred to when I was growing up.

The Giant of Portrush!
Jul 21st, 2019
They needed it to be tough out there if they were going to challenge Shane Lowry but in the end, it was too tough and the conditions actually played in to the hands of the big man.

Jul 20th, 2019

However, it seems for some professionals that once they have reached the lofty heights of the tour this unwritten rule no longer applies to them.

The Open should be free for all
Jul 18th, 2019

Scotty Cameron is bringing sexy back
Jul 8th, 2019
You know something is iconic when its value on the second hand market can be more than when it was new.

Which is the immovable object

Best dressed at the beach
Jun 16th, 2019
Once upon a time what golfers wore on the course was not something that was talked about much. This might have something to do with the fact that they wore a standardised uniform of shirt, jumper of varying style and slacks. Oh, and of course the obligatory golf shoe which usually looked like something your grandad thought was cutting edge.
US Open Day 2 Wrap
Jun 15th, 2019
America’s Gary Woodland shot a 65 to take the lead in the US Open and join Justin Rose and Tiger Woods in the record books with the joint lowest score in a US Open at Pebble Beach. He leads England’s Justin Rose, who added a round of 70 to his own 65, by two shots as they go into the weekend.

McDowell still in the mix
Jun 8th, 2019
Graeme McDowell shot a second round 67 at the Canadian Open to sit on eight under, four off the halfway lead which is held by Matt Kuchar and Scott Brown. Gmac still work to do if he is to grab one of the three spots available for The Open but he is well placed come the weekend.
The Open needs McDowell
Jun 6th, 2019
The Open is coming back to Northern Ireland after a break of 68 years. When Max Faulkner, one of the most flamboyant golfers of his generation, won the Open Championship in 1951 at Royal Portrush it would be 18 years until a Brit, Tony Jacklin in 1969, was to do so again.

Day 3 Wrap from The Masters
Apr 14th, 2019
Lilac was the colour of the day at The Masters as the leaders appeared to have coordinated their wardrobes to don shirts of the same hue.

Ian Poulter, always one to be different, went instead for a lilac pair of strides.

Why we are entering another golden age for Europe at the Masters
Apr 10th, 2019
Remember when Europeans dominated the Masters? From 1980 to 2000, the tournament was won 11 times by European golfers. Since then, not so much, with only two winners in the last 18 years. It's worth noting, however, that those wins (Danny Willett and Sergio Garcia) make up two of the last three Masters. Maybe the transition of power at Augusta has already begun?
