Seamus Power is now just 24-hours from Tulsa and a first appearance later this week in the PGA Championship at Southern Hills. There’ll be no driving home, no welcoming light or small hotel for the night, just a short charter flight directly north later this Sunday night (US time) for the season’ second major. It will also be Power’s second straight career major and helping lift his aspirations heading to the final round of the AT & T Byron Nelson, was the sight of the Irishman thrilled ...

Scottish lefty Robert MacIntyre may be the lone Scot teeing-up later this week in the 104th hosting of the PGA Championship but he’s not travelled to Tulsa, Oklahoma simply to make-up the Southern Hills numbers.   It will be MacIntyre’s third straight PGA Championship having made his debut in 2020 at Harding Park in San Francisco, though finishing well down in a tie for 66th while last year he was just inside the top-50 at Kiawah Island in South Carolina. It will also be MacIntyre’s ...

Ukranian 14-year-old Lev Grinberg has become the second youngest player to make the cut at a DP World Tour event afer he added a second round 69 to his opening 70 and moved to three-under heading to the weekend rounds of the Soudal Open in Belgium. At 14-years, six months and six days old, Grinberg heads to the weekend rounds sharing 29th place on his now home Rinkven International course “I played amazing!” beamed Grinberg. “I can’t wait to play tomorrow and Sunday. It’s so nice to play ...

Scottish best friends Connor Syme and Ewen Ferguson twice on day two were sharing the lead before slipping down the board at the Soudal Open in Antwerp, Belgium. Syme, and coming off a share of second in last week’s British Masters, brilliantly tied the lead with the five opening birdies but it was all downhill after a 10th hole bogey. The Drumoig golfer ended in a golfing ambulance with a bogey on 12, a double on 13 and while he birdied 17 for a second day, Syme dropped a shot at the last ...

It is a decade today – May 13th, 2012 – since the very affable Portuguese golfer Ricardo Santos brilliantly won on home soil in capturing the Madiera Islands Open. Santos was in sizzling form posting a closing round 63 to win by four shots on the course located very high-up, and dramatically overlooking the Atlantic Ocean. It was the then 29-year-old’s maiden and still first DP World Tour victory.  There were emotional scenes with his wife, Rita and then very young three-year-old ...

Seamus Power returned to Dallas proudly standing tall, and where a year ago he turned around his career, in posting a sizzling 66 on day one at the AT & T Byron Nelson. Power grabbed seven birdies and dropped just one shot in bright but windy conditions on the host TPC Craig Ranch course located in suburban McKinley, and just to the north of the third largest city in the Lone Star State. Colombian-born, and now Texas-based Sebastian Munoz set a new course record signing for a blistering 12-under-par ...

Scotland’s Ewan Ferguson drew on fond host golf course memories to lead the Scottish challenge after the opening day of the Soudal Open outside of Antwerp in Belgium. Ferguson bounced back from a 15th hole to bogey to birdie the 16th in an eventual round of a four-under 67 in bright but windy conditions on the host Rinkven International course. The reigning Qatar Masters champ finished third on the same course at the 2019 Belgian Knockout, and in a season with four other secondary Challenge ...
