Fleetwood Back To Near His Best Looking To End Two-Year Windless Drought In Windy Saudi
It is surprising in checking that it’s been over two years since Tommy Fleetwood last toasted a victory success
An eighth career victory was, in fact, a play-off win at the 2019 Nedbank Challenge in South Africa, and after he remarkably posted three eagles of his last day at Sun City.
It was a wind that lifted Fleetwood to 10th on the World Rankings but this week he arrived as No. 47 in the world.
Now, and heading to the final round, the 31-year-old is in contention for victory at the Saudi ...

Twenty-One Years Ago Bernie’s Historic First New ‘Millenium’ Tee Shot On A Golf Course In Tonga
Twenty-one years ago today, and in the spirit of a new Millennium, I hit the first golf shot on a golf course of this millenium at midnight on the 1st January, 2000 on the tiny Pacific Ocean island of Tonga.
I flew from Sydney via Auckland to the Tongan capital of Nuku ‘alofa.
Tonga encompasses around 170 islands of which 36 are inhabited while some 70% of the now 100,000 total population of the islands live on the main island.
So why go to Tonga to golf?
Tonga is located two-thirds of the way ...
Stunning Pacific Ocean Sunset At Torrrey Pines.
Growing-up in Sydney meant the stunning sight of seeing the sun rise over the Pacific Ocean.
Then in moving to live in Scotland I chose to live on the eastern shoreline of the country and enjoyed now seeing the sun rise up over the North Sea.
And then in recent years, and in reporting on the Hero World Challenge in the Bahamas, we would spend the Christmas/New Year festive period in Florida and we found our way to places like West Palm Beach, Fort Lauderdale and more recently, Port St. Lucie and ...

Imagine the surprise for someone when you’re leisurely cruising down the road and you come to a town, a bridge, a building, a shop or whatever with your surname ‘up in lights’.
It’s happened only a few times to myself in the course of covering the European and PGA Tour’s.
There’s Maguires Castle at Enniskillen and just to the south of the town is the small village of Maguire’s Bridge both in Co, Fermanagh in Northern Ireland and a destination I’ve been ...
