Top Scot Bob MacIntyre admits three weeks back home in his beloved Oban has re-energised his rookie PGA Tour season. MacIntyre also indicated he touched his clubs just twice during the period chilling out with family and friends. However, in returning to the PGA Tour for this week’s Zurich Classic of New Orleans, and where he and partner Thomas Detry in the Mardis Gras city, MacIntyre revealed the stress he was enduring competing Stateside for a first time in his career. Prior to returning home, ...

A clearly refreshed Robert MacIntyre returned to the PGA Tour and teamed with Belgium’s Thomas Detry to superbly snare the lead early on day one of the Zurich Classic of New Orleans. MacIntyre and Detry combined to grab the early clubhouse lead with a 10-under-par 62 on the host TPC Louisiana course. The duo posted a second hole eagle and then eight birdies, including four in succession from the 11th hole in the $US 8.9m event. MacIntyre, and showing plenty of spring in his step, has been back ...

CEO Greg Norman was emphatic in stating LIV Golf never made any offer to Rory McIlroy seeking his signature on a LIV contract. “I’ll make the comment if you look back over that time period of that dialogue that was going, there wasn’t one comment about LIV. LIV never put an offer to him. We didn’t need to make a comment about this. This is just typical white noise that gets out there in the industry”, said  Norman ahead of this week’s LIV Adeladie tournament in ...

It speaks volumes how far Ludvig Aberg has come in such a short time that only a year ago he was ranked a lowly 905th in the world. Now after his stunning second place finish in a maiden career major championship the Swedish golfer finds himself inside the top-10 on the official world rankings as the new World No. 7 following his brilliant showing at Augusta National. The 24-year-old’s effort behind Scottie Scheffler in the 88th hosting of the Masters is the equal best finish by a Swedish-born ...

World No. 1 Scottie Scheffler was simply masterful winning a second Augusta National title. Scheffler, 27 was also very much in a class of his own posting a closing round of 68 to comfortably win by four shots at 11-under  and be fitted with a second Augusta National members green jacket in three years. As well, Scheffler becomes the 18th multiple Masters winner in the 88th hosting of the championship. The Texas-born Scheffler headed into the final round of the year’s maiden major showing ...

In any other golf tournament when the defending champion plays poorly he or she usually cannot get off the golf course and away from the host club as quickly as they can. Not at The Masters. The Masters has a rich tradition and something that Jon Rahm respects despite producing his poorest showing in eight Augusta appearances. As the 87th Masters winner Rahm had to wait around to help fit an Augusta National members jacket on a new winner, and just as Scottie Scheffele had done so 12 months ago ...

Tiger Woods was clearly staying positive by confirming he will contest the three remaining major championships of 2024 – US PGA Championship at Valhalla, US Open at Pinehurst and the 152nd Open Championship in July at Royal Troon. This news after Woods ended his 2024 Masters campaign with a 100th Augusta round of a five-over-par 77 for a 16-over-par tally. Woods had posted earlier scores of 73, 72 and 82 in his 26th Masters showing that disappointingly left him in last place among those who ...
