Former champ Martin Laird will head into this week’s Valero Texas Open looking not only for his second success in the historic over 100-year history of the event but also secure the last invitation into the following week’s Masters. Eleven years ago the Denver-based Scot denied hot favourite Rory McIlroy to capture the Texas title and also earn himself not only a smart-looking pair of cowboy boots but the very last invitation into what was then Laird’s third straight Masters showing. And ...

Aussie Min Woo Lee is now just one round shy of a maiden PGA Tour victory, posting a sensational third round 63 and in the process comfortably relegating World No. 1 Scottie Scheffler into the shade at the Texas Children’s Houston Open. Lee, 26, took to the host Memorial Park course grabbing seven one-putt birdies in a sizzling bogey-free effort to move four clear of the field at 17-under in America’s fourth largest city. Highlight of Lee’s round was undoubtedly his tee shot at ...

Canadian-born golfer Adam Hadwin has turned on the apologies after his angry antic on the second day of last week’s Valspar Championship at the Innisbrook Resort. After playing a poor chip shot Hadwin showed his disgust by slamming his club into the ground but then getting the shock of his life when water began spraying everywhere, given he’d unknowlingly hit a sprinkler head in the thickish grass on the host Copperhead course. With thanks to ‘ForePlay’ video footage of what ...

Round three of any golf tournament is commonly referred to as ‘Moving Day’. It’s the day when those who made the halfway cut seek to make their presence felt and hopefully putting themselves in contection ahead of golf’s ‘Pay Day’. Though was not the script on day three of the Hero Indian Open and in a scenario you rarely see in the men’s pro game all but three of 68 players who made the halfway posted under-par scores on the ultra-tough DLF host course in ...

It was the 8th December, 2024 when World No. 1 Scottie Scheffler last tasted success in the elite Hero World Challenge. The New Year dawned with Scheffler contesting his openinng event of 2025 in securing ninth behind World No. 2 Rory McIlroy at the AT & T Pebble Beach Pro-Am. Scheffler was kind of an after thought and looked rusty in sharing 25th place at the Phoenix Open while he did bounce back to where we know he has been accustomed and that’s into the limelight with a share of third ...

Scot Ewen Ferguson was shouting out ‘Shot of the Year, Shot of the Year’ and hoping now not to be denied at season-end by ‘Bloody’ Rory McIlroy after pulling off a stunning up-and-down birdie from a greenside bunker on day one of the Hero Indian Open. Ferguson was off to a horror start in the very hot afternoon conditions bogeying the first hole and then doubling the third before the Dubai-based Scot turned it all around at the par-5 eighth hole on the host DLF course in New Delhi. The ...
