David Horsey again staked his claim as one of the exciting new breed of ‘Made In England’ golfers in claiming a wire-to-wire victory at the Made in Denmark. Hoersey was never headed opening the week with a 63 at Himmerland Golf & Spa Resort and while his closing round was 10 shots worse than that, it was enough to give him a 13 under par total and a two shot victory over a group of four players. Horsey had held a seven shot lead at one point in the third round and, although he was ...

Tiger Woods again reminded the golf world of his overwhelming desire and it’s not just a strong finish in his first appearance in the Wyndham Championship. As the late, great Ayrton Senna remarked:  “I am not designed to come second or third, I am desgined to win!” It is very much the same sentiment Wood expressed when asked if he would be satisfied, given all he has endured this year, without capturing victory on the Sedgefield Country Club course. “Everyone who knows me that ...

However Woods has been a big part of the US Ryder Cup task force set-up in the wake of Phil Mickelson’s damming comments post Gleneagles. And it’s in those discussions ...

History would seem to be on the side of Tiger Woods capturing victory in his first appearance in the Wyndham Championship here in Greensboro. He heads to the third round of the $US 5.4m event sharing the lead at 11-under par with rookie PGA Tour compatriot Tom Hoge. However consider the following:- * Woods has now held or shared the 36-hole lead on 48 occasions and has gone on to capture victory in 37 of the 47 tournaments with the last being 2013 WGC – Bridgestone Invitational and also his ...

Tiger Woods late decision to contest this week’s Wyndham Championship could pay winning dividends with Woods sharing the lead with two rounds to play in Greensboro, North Carolina. Never has the host Sedgefield Country Club course witnessed the scenes that have unfolded over the past two days as Woods stormed his way to the top of the board and in his first appearance in the $US 5.4m tournament. On yet another sauna-like day, Woods had his army of fans roaring with delight in producing a five ...
