Rory McIlroy’s 11-year wait since capturing a third major at the 2014 PGA Championship in a quest to secure success in the only major championship he requires to join the most exclusive club in golf is now just 18 holes from fruition. McIlroy superbly stamped his enormous class and also reinforced his credentials as the New Year’s best in-form golfer brilliantly posting two eagles and four birdies in a third round second straight score of a six-under 66 to move two shots clear of the ...

It was around 4pm on the eve of the Masters and the final preview pieces ahead of the year’s maiden major had been filed. Those afforded invitations to tee-up in the next day’s opening round of the years maiden Major were away either competing in the Par-3 Contest or elsewhere doing what they had to do to prepare themselves for the tournament proper.

We all know that those teeing-up at the Masters are allocated a number and the number is displayed on the crisp white overalls worn by the player’s caddy.

The Oban lefty had been a pro for five years before breaking through for a first time in the pro ranks with a 2017 MENA Tour triumph but having to wait three years ahead ...

It was heartache for Scotland’s Russell Knox in looking to take a huge step in returning to the PGA Tour only to miss out by a shot in making the play-off on the secondary Korn Ferry Tour. With six holes to play Knox was leading by one shot 17-under in the Club Car Championship in Savannah, Georgia. Then in what was a four shot turnaround, Knox bogeyed the 13th hole around the same period of time American Rick Lamb eagled 14 and then birdied 15 to go to 17-under and with Knox dropping back ...
