Marc Warren was left agonizing over missing a 15-foot birdie putt at Oak Hill’s final green that would have handed the Scot a place in this week’s PGA Tour Wyndham Championship. Warren was met by a PGA Tour official straight after signing for a 69 and a two under par in his maiden PGA Championship appearance. The Glaswegian finished the leading British-born player and just one shot shy of defending PGA champion, Rory McIlroy. Warren was naturally delighted with his efforts in suburban Rochester ...

Jason Dufner has made amends for his Atlanta Country Club anguish two years ago to win the 95th PGA Championship by shots at Oak Hill. Dufner had the crowd roaring with approval when after being greeted with a hug from his wife, he then grabbed a big handful of her backside after finishing with 68 for 10-under par 270 tally.

Victorious European Ryder Cup star, Ian Poulter and former PGA Champion, Steve Elkington are at the center of a heated Twitter feud. Elkington burst onto the Twitter international stage last fortnight with his observations of England and the town of Southport and located close to Royal Birkdale and the host venue for the Senior Open.

Tiger Woods left Oak Hill and venue for this week’s PGA Championship with his second worse showing in the season’s year end Major. Woods headed to the scorer’s hut T43rd at four over par and his poorest showing since missing the cut two years ago in Atlanta. Woods did birdie three of his closing seven holes but the World No. 1 was hardly a factor this week and failing to break 70 on any of the four days, and just a week after winning an eighth WGC – Bridgestone Invitational ...

South African, Tim Clark was smiling after recording the first hole-in-one at the 95th PGA Championship Sunday. Clark used a 3-hybrid on the 220 yard par-3, 11th hole.

For the second straight Major Henrik Stenson is on the verge of ending Sweden’s victory famine in Major Championships. Stenson continued his remarkable recent form to move to within two shots of 54-hole leader Jim Furyk with a round of the PGA Championship remaining at Oak Hill. The Swede, third in the Aberdeen Asset Management Scottish Open and second at both The Open Championship and WGC-Bridgestone Invitational in his last three starts, has a great chance to add a victory to his hot streak ...
