Jason Day Makes Mockery Of Memorial Memories Shooting Sizzling 66.

World No. 1 Jason Day made a mockery of his many Memorial Tournament memories shooting a sizzling six under par 66 at the Muirfield Village course where he is a member. It left Day trailing just two strokes behind American Dustin Johnson who had moved to nine under par through 17 holes but then dropped a shot at the last, and with Johnson capping his round with a starting hat-trick of birdies and then four in succession from his 12th hole. Day has never finished better than 27th place in the event ...

Michael Hoey On Target To End Miserable New Year Run Of 11 Missed Cuts.

Michael Hoey looks set to end a miserable run of 11 missed cuts in succession this season in posting three under par 69 on the opening day of the Nordea Masters in Stockholm. Hoey, who has earned just Euro 8,100 from his first two events to start the year, ended the day just two shots behind six players who share the lead on five under par in heatwave conditions on the Bro Hoff Slott course. Among them is Scotland’s Scott Henry who pulled off a Seve Ballesteros 1979 Open Championship ‘car park’ ...

McIlroy Reverts To ‘Conventional’ Putting Grip In Memorial No Frills 71.

Reigning Irish Open champion Rory McIlroy singled out a change back to a ‘conventional’ putting grip as pivotal to six birdies in a round of 71 on the opening day of the Memorial in Dublin, Ohio. McIlroy looked very ‘rusty’ for 16 holes despite having a week’s break from competition following his dramatic and sensational success just 11 days ago at the K. Club. In fact, was one over par standing on the 17th before holing birdies of near 12 feet and then eight feet at the last on ...

Scott Henry Rekindles Seve Ballesteros ‘Car Park’ Open Championship Victory Shot.

Scott Henry rekindled memories of Seve Ballesteros’ ‘Car Park’ Open victory shot as he stormed into a share of the lead in heatwave conditions on day one of the Nordea Masters in Sweden. Henry sent an errant tee shot way left at the last of the Bro Hot Slott Golf Club in Stockholm that flew a grandstand and large electronic scoreboard before coming to rest close to a 1957 MG MGA ‘Roadster’. The historic open-wheeler is valued around £25,000 and with the owner no doubt thinking it would ...

Trump Turnberry – Three Videos Of Ailsa Course ‘Rebirth’.

It has to be one of the most wonderful settings for a ‘rebirth’. The Ailsa course at Trump Turnberry has undergone a stunning change and thanks to Trump Turnberry I was afforded the opportunity to play the course a day (May 31st) before it was opened to the public. My videoing skills are not up there with the great Cecil B. DeMille but you will get a small taste of what now lays ahead for any lover of golf. And if you thought Trump Turnberry was already a stunning location then think ...

Jason Day Ready To Respond To Rivals Success In Best Way Possible.

Since his last victory at the Players Championship, Aussie Jason Day has seen his closest two rivals also taste victory. First there was current World No. 3 Rory McIlroy winning his own Dubai Duty Free Irish Open and then last week the present World No. 2 Jordan Spieth bounced back from his Augusta National anguish to capture a first PGA Tour title in his native Texas. And on the event of this week’s Memorial, Day says he’s excited to respond the victory efforts of McIlroy and Spieth ...
