Lowry Carrying No Excuse Baggage Teeing-Up In Arnies Event
For champion golfer Shane Lowry it was very much akin to another day in the office.
Lowry was fourth out at an early 7.30am tee-off local time in Wednesday’s Arnold Palmer Pro-Am captaining his side of amateur partners Chiro Aikat, Abhivav Arnand and Daryl Risinger each members at the Arnold Palmer Bay Hill Lodge and Club and all four residing the Orlando area.

Exclusive: Arnold Palmer Invitational & A Special Return After Six Years For Two Reasons
This week’s hosting of the 2026 Arnold Palmer Invitational is a double special return for this journalist.
Not only will this year’s tournament sadly mark the 10th anniversary year of Arnold Palmer’s passing but also it is six years since the hosting of the 2020 Arnold Palmer Invitational was the last ‘full’ PGA Tour event I attended.
When I say ‘full’, I refer to the fact that back in that first week of March 2020 the world was falling more and more in the ...
My Maiden CB Qatar Masters – Missing Out On $200 But Proudly Still In Possession Of An Arabian Dhow.
The annual hosting of the CB Qatar Masters always brings back a great story I have from my maiden visit to the tournament in 1999, and the then second hosting of the prestigious DP World Tour event.
Though I must say in writing this story, I still don’t what kept me away from being present at the inaugural 1998 Qatar Masters, won by Scotland’s Andrew Coltart.
It was a double celebration for the affable Scot who awoke in Doha on the Sunday morning with confirmation from far off Australia ...
Ross ‘Roscoe’ Kinnaird Steps Down As One Of Golf’s Top Snappers.
Ross Kinnaird has officially retired as one of golf’s leading photographers but also as one of the nicest and friendliest fellow members of the golfing media I’ve had the pleasure to know.
Ross, or Roscoe as he’s more affectionately known to his many friends, packed away his photographer’s credential for a last time at Sunday’s concluding Hero Hero World Tour Championship.
I met Roscoe in the 1990s and when I first began travelling full-time to European Tour events and ...

Bernie’s Yearly Best, More Bizarre, Biggest Splash, Saddest & A New Year’s Wish
It’s that time of year for Bernie’s annual awards.
Bernie’s annual awards are not your yearly run-of-the-mill awards, as you can go to any golfing website to find those.
This golf writer continues to be different in all the right ways, having hit the first golf shot on a golf course in 2000, played golf in nearly 50 different countries, and has attended around 90 majors in the men’s professional game, and here again at year’s end recognizing some of the best, worst, ...
McIlroy: From The Back Of The 18th Green At Andrews In 2007 To Grand Slam Glory At Augusta National
It was 7th of October, 2007 when I stood beside a young freck-faced, curly-haired golfer named Rory McIlroy at the back of the 18th green at the Old Course at St. Andews.
We stood there watching the third last pairing of Open Champions Paul Lawrie and Padraig Harrington completing their rounds in the Alfred Dunhill Links Championship.
Lawrie was standing over a birdie putt that if he holed it, would tie him with McIlroy in then third place on his own at 15-under-par.
As we looked on, McIlroy commented: ...
