Shane Lowry again showed his fondness for the famed ‘Burma Road’ course taking Route 66 on the opening day of the flagship BMW PGA Championship. Lowry emerged from the ‘on and off’ showers and end his day’s work in bright sunshine with a bogey-free display of six birdies, three on each half, for a six-under-par starting round to be in the stately Wentworth clubhouse just two shots off the early lead in the $8m event. Setting the clubhouse target was Lowry’s playing partner ...

Scotland’s Ewen Ferguson heads to this week’s opening event of the 2023 Ryder Cup selection process at Tour HQ in the best of form finishing runner-up in the Made in Himmerland in Denmark.

Scotland’s David Dyrsdale had his wife/caddy to thank in ending a 24-year wait for a first Tour ace at his opening hole on the second day of the Made in Himmerland in Denmark. Vicky Dyrsdale talked her husband out of using an 8-iron and with the Borders golfer handed a 7-iron, sending his 164-yard shot to the bottom of the cup at his first hole or the 10th on the host Farso course. Sadly, there was no gleaming new motor, nor a pot of cash and not even a bottle of bubbly but just the honour ...

Rome Ryder Cup vice-captain Thomas Bjorn was overflowing with praise for the Scottish duo of Ewen Ferguson and Robert MacIntyre on day one of the Made in Himmerland event at Farso in Denmark. Double DP World winning Ferguson soared into a five-way share of second with an eagle and six birdies for an eight-under 63.

The last Scot to win twice in the same year was Larwrie a decade ago at the 2012 Qatar Masters and ...

Ewen Ferguson is just one round shy of becoming the first Scot in 17-years to win twice in a DP World Tour year. Ferguson, and despite late back-to-back bogeys, superbly holed a 14-foot birdie at the last in a day three 68 to move three clear heading to the final day of the ISPS Handa World Invitational at Galgorm Castle in Ballymena.
