Law Takes To Overtaking Lane At Porsche European Open In Hamburg
Aberdonian David Law took to the overtaking lane on one of the toughest courses all season to post a three-under par 69 on day one of the weather delayed Porsche European Open in Germany.
Law, 30, who teed-up in the event for a first time and also without a full practice round, grabbed six birdies and half as many bogeys to end the day in a fourway share of second place on the Green Eagle course to the south-east of Hamburg.
Belgium’s Thomas Detry, who revealed he spent last week gardening ...
Patrick Reed: Beware the ‘Rocking’ Memorial Cicadas Landing On Your White Pants.
You could never argue a Patrick Reed press conference is dull.
Take Reed’s pre-Memorial presser with the current World No. 9 and reigning Farmers Insurance Open winner asked to comment on a new cap sponsor, team relationships at a Ryder Cup, the state of his game returning next fortnight to Torrey Pines and where he won earlier this year.
And the best question, well I think, of all and that concerned the very noisy cicadas about the Muirfield Village course and with the Texan revealing a few ...
Tom Watson: McIlroy Needs To Rid Himself Of A ‘Cancer Of Doubt’ From His Game.
Eight-time Major winning Tom Watson declared Rory McIlroy needs to rid himself of a ‘cancer’ of doubt that’s growing in his game.
The 71-year-old Watson has become the latest among golf’s greats to share his views on Rory McIlroy.
We’ve had so many passing an opinion on the downturn in McIlroy’s game from fellow Irish Padraig Harrington and Paul McGinley to Andy North and Curtis Strange.

“I just think he (McIlroy) needs to ...
McDowell: A ‘Slap In The Face’ Not Being In The U.S. Open.
Former champ Graeme McDowell admits not being in next week’s U.S. Open is a ‘slap in the face’ as he looks to get back into the ‘less privileged side’ of contesting all four majors.
After failing to qualify for a Torrey Pines tee time, McDowell is looking at a first year of not competing in any of the four majors since turning professional nearly 20-years ago.
In fact, McDowell has competed in at least one major championship a year since making his major’s debut in the 2004 Open ...
Pagunsan Qualifies For The Open With Only 11 Clubs, No Caddie & Using Four Callaways.
It’s why we love the ancient club-and-ball game because it throws-up stories to warm the heart.
Recently, it was a near-51-year-old Phil Mickelson becoming the oldest winner of a men’s major.
Then two days later Ireland’s own Shane Lowry was on a Zoom hook-up arranged by the R & A ahead of his Open Championship defence when he told the story of leaving a golf fan in tears when the fan asked Lowry if the special carry case he was pulling behind him at an airport held the Claret Jug and ...
MacIntyre Insisting To ‘Practice My Arse Off’ In Lead-Up To US Open

For a second week running MacIntyre summed-up his week with the ‘D’ word after posting a closing 68 for a seven-under par tally and finishing just inside the top-40 at the Made in HimmerLand. (Large ‘L’).
Austrian Bernd Wiesberger, who was grouped alongside MacIntyre for the opening two rounds, successfully defended his Danish ...
Big Change In Golf’s Leading Referees – First JP And Andy And Now Slugger & Mark Retiring.
In the past seven months we’ve seen a huge change on leading two tours of the world.
Last October, golf celebrated the end of an era on the European Tour with the retirement of John ‘JP’ Paramor and his fellow Chief Referee, Andy McFee.
JP joined the European Tour in 1976 and Andy in 1983 but in retiring no-one knows how many tournaments either has been present in a referee capacity.
Whatever the number, the duo have been likes cornerstones for the European Tour having worked with ...
