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, ...

Scheffler Ends Near Five-Month Victory Drought In Tears
World No. 1 Scottie Schefffler ended a near five-month victory drought in tears at the CJ Cup Byron Nelson in his home city of Dallas, Texas.

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 on 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 15-under-par.
As we looked on, McIlroy commented: “If ...
“You Never Lose It, Do You Dai?” Lee Westwood’s Memorable Singapore Comment
This week’s hosting of the Porsche Singapore Classic is yet another Tour destination bringing back fond memories.
I was in attendance at the then named Caltex Singapore Masters in the mid 2000s and when the event was jointly hosted by the Asian Tour and then European Tour, and when both Tours were a lot closer in talking to each other than they sadly are now.
The tournament, as it is this week, was also played on the Laguna National course.
It was 2005 and the handful of overseas media in attendance ...
A First Tournament Visit To Joburg & Meet A South African Cricketing Great.
This week’s 2025 Joburg Open being played at the Houghton Club is yet another tournament that brings back fond memories.
It was two weeks into 2000 and my first time in South Africa.
A fortnight earlier I had stood in darkness, apart from the lights of one or two motor vehicles, on the first tee of the Tonga Golf Club and at the stroke of midnight I super-proudly hit the first shot on a golf course in the new Millennium.
Soon after I journeyed from the eastern Pacific Ocean shoreline in Australia, ...
