Paul Casey first teed-up on the Hong Kong Golf Club course over 15-years ago, so he’s no stranger to this week’s LIV Golf Hong Kong host venue in suburban Fanling. Indeed, the affable Englishman contested last year’s LIV hosted Hong Kong event but never before on the four occasions in his career he’s teed-up in Hong Kong has the now 47-year-old produced a round of 63 as he did on day one of the 2025 LIV Golf Hong Kong. Casey’s efforts on the tight, tree-lined layout ...

Xander Schauffele could not have described it better declaring with a smile on his face: “Got my ass kicked”. This after the current World No. 3 posted a shock five-over-par 77 on the opening day of the Arnold Palmer Invitational at Bay Hill in Orlando. The now rib-injury free Schauffele is returning to competition in a first event since the season-opening The Sentry in Hawaii. However the former Olympic Games Gold medalist from 2020 surely was not expecting a round that included just ...

It came as a real surprise news at the start of year of Irishman Tom McKibbin’s potential signing with LIV Golf. Yes, there was rumours in the days ahead of the Northern Irishman competing in the DP World Tour’s Team Cup in Abu Dhabi that the 22-year-old had signed with LIV as a member of Jon Rahm’s Legend X111 team. However it was not till three weeks later, and after missing the halfway cut at the Ras Al Khaima and with McKibbin back home in Northern Ireland, that it was all official ...

Twenty-year old Chinese golfing sensation Wenyi Ding celebrated his South African born caddies birthday, posting a super bogey-free round of a seven-under 63 to share the lead on seven-under with England’s Jordan Smith after the opening day of the co-sanctioned Joburg Open. Ding, a competing in the event as a full DP World Tour member, was very impressive birdieing three of his opening four holes and after five pars he headed into his back-9 with four further birdies. This week’s event ...

Four-time PGA Tour No. 1 Rory McIlroy is undecided if he agrees with talks that the season-ending Tour Championship should change to a match-play format as is being suggested. It was earlier this year when it was reported that the Tour may abandon ‘it’s always been stroke-play’ thinking and go with match-play. If so, the Tour Championship held at the East Lake course to the east of Atlanta would be the only tournament on the schedule to be match-play. McIlroy was asked his thougths ...

Scotland’s West Dumbartonshire Council is facing further backlash after indicating a second ‘budget meeting’ has voted to close Dalmuir Golf Club while all may not be lost. The council had initially voted last year to close the public access golf course, located to the north of Glasgow on Scotland’s west coast however a petition disagreeing with the decision nipped that move in the bud. However with matters seemingly sorted not to close the course and the immediate future ...

Ewen Ferguson’s quietly-confident a nagging neck injury will not hinder him teeing-up in this week’s co-sanctioned Joburg Open. Ferguson, 28, has not competed since withdrawing​ after just six holes in the opening round of last month’s Qatar Masters​ in Doha. The Dubai-based Scot had been struggling with the injury since his solid 16th place in January’s season-opening Hero Dubai Desert Classic but then disappointingly missing the halfway cut in his next two events in Ras Al Khaimah ...
