American Collin Morikawa possibly could create a historic European Tour first later this year should he capture the Race To Dubai (R2D) No. 1 title. Morikawa, 23 is currently lying second on the R2D ranking and just a slender 28 points behind fellow countryman Patrick Reed. However, Reed has the opportunity to extend his lead having chosen to cross ‘The Pond’ to tee-up in this week’s BMW PGA Championship at Wentworth. The brilliant 2020 PGA Championship winning Morikawa became an ...

What has Aussie Wade Ormsby now got in common with Ireland’s Shane Lowry? The answer lies with news the Hong Kong Open is being postponed to well into next year. Near on a year ago, the Hong Kong Open was forced to move its tournament from November, 2019 to January 2020 due to the pro-democrat protests that rocked the island.  The Asian Tour event had due to be again co-sanctioned with the European Tour but for some reason the rescheduling of the event in January went ahead without European ...

American Patrick Reed has shown he’s serious about looking to capture this year’s European Tour Race to Dubai victory crown as evident with the current No. 1 on the Tour’s money list crossing ‘The Pond’ to tee-up in this week’s BMW PGA Championship, the third Rolex Series event of 2020. The 2018 Masters winning hero has won eight times in his pro career but is yet to taste victory in a regular European Tour event but that could all change this week on the famed ...

Invaluable! This was Aaron Rai’s response when asked how valuable was the experience of finishing runner-up in last week’s Dubai Duty Free to capturing the ASI Scottish Open. Rai, 25 secured a first Rolex Series victory event and a second European Tour title of his career after both he and fellow Englishman found themselves in play-off on the Renaissance course to the east of Edinburgh. Rai was on the practice range following a final round 64 for an 11-under par tally when Fleetwood brilliantly ...

Padraig Harrington battled his way through the pain barrier to record a best European Tour result in two-years with a gutsy ninth-place finish at the ASI Scottish Open. Harrington tweaked his neck ahead of teeing-off but then went out to post a best round of his week, a four-under 67 that included a 16th eagle on the Renaissance course to the east of Edinburgh. No such pain for England’s Aaron Rai, and who had been in contention for much of last week’s Dubai Duty Free Irish Open, going one better ...

Aussie Lucas Herbert brilliantly regrouped in posting a final round 65 and a round that was 14 shots fewer a day earlier at the ASI Scottish Open at the Renaissance course to the east of Edinburgh. Herbert. 24 had charged his way into an early last day clubhouse lead at nine-under par before eventually settling for a share of fourth place at nine-under and two shy of the England duo of Aaron Rai (64) and Tommy Fleetwood (67) who headed into a play-off at 11-under par. Rai then captured a maiden Rolex ...

Paul Lawrie ended his main European Tour career clearly suffering with back pain that has dogged his career over the past few years to post a 79 for a 10-over tally on day two of the ASI Scottish Open on the Renaissance course to the east of Edinburgh. Lawrie, 51 was seen whistling as he arrived at the course and then after a final drive down the 18th, he also broke into whistling and heard remarking:  “Everything will be fine as long as Aberdeen beats St. Mirren tonight”. The proud ...
