Orlando, FL ….
World No. 1 Rory McIlroys heads north to this week’s defence of his Players Championship title posting yet another top-five finish of the year at the Arnold Palmer Invitational in Flordia.

Drsydale Denied Maiden Tour Title In Qatar By Brilliant Campillo Birdie Putting
Scot David Drysdale has been horribly denied ending a near-500 winless drought losing out for the Commercial Bank Qatar Masters crown at the fifth extra play-off hole in Doha.
Drysdale can really feel short-changed with Spaniard Jorge Campillo holing four monster putts at the 18th, a first in regulation to force the play-off and then three of five times on the same green in the play-off.

McIlroy Insists Bay Hill Day Three Playing Like A US Open – Not One Player In The 60s.
Orlando, FL ….
If the World No. 1 ranked player Rory McIlroy reckons the third round of the Arnold Palmer Invitational was more akin to a U.S. Open then it must have been tough.
Yes, tough enough that not one of the 69 players who made the halfway cut managed to break 70 on the Bay Hill course.
Indeed, current World No. 3 Brooks Koepka and a four-time Major winneer, produced the highest score of his PGA Tour career of a nine-over par 81 to drop 24 spots and into a distant share of 64th place.
