New dad Bob MacIntyre admits it’s becoming difficult, in the nicest of ways, leaving the family house since the January 28th birth of son Findlay to his partner Shannon Hartley. MacIntyre finds himself still being congratulated by fellow players, caddies, Tour officials, members of the media and the golfing public alike at each new tournament he attends following Findlay’s birth. Somewhat fortunate this week’s $20m Arnold Palmer Invitational is a ‘home’ event for ...

It’s your shout G Mac after the Irish golfer brilliantly recorded the 14th ace in LIV Golf history with his hole-in-one, a 7-iron at the 181-yard fifth in Friday’s second round of the HSBC LIV Golf Hong Kong Open. It is McDowell’s 15th career ace but alas there was no gleaming new car but the customary handshakes and, of course, the honour on the next tee of the host Fanling course. YOU’RE SHOUT, G MAC As @Graeme_McDowell brilliantly collects the 15th ACE of his career day two ...

Jonathon Vegas was second out on day one but quickly proceeded to produce a sizzling putting display and put himself high up the board on day one of the Arnold Palmer Invitational here at Bay Hill. Vegas needed just 23 putts in a super opening round of a five-under 67 to still be among the leaders early in the afternoon of the $20m event. The effort is his best score in 13 rounds this new season. The very affable 41-year-old Venezuelan has won four times on the PGA Tour and could be staring at a ...

For top-ranked Scot Robert MacIntyre remarked being a member of Luke Donald’s European Ryder Cup side is very much like working for a boss.

It was an exclusive of sorts when I asked Grand Slam winning Rory McIlroy about his hosting of the up-coming Masters Champions dinner.

This year it’s McIlroy to host the dinner and with five-time Masters champion, Tiger Woods guaranteed ...
