Unfortunately it was a case of the same old story for us of late last week in Memphis as we were in a good position to land a nice return through Webb Simpson and Christiaan Bezuidenhout over the weekend, however Simpson, who had three putted the 18th from 4ft on Saturday missed from 7ft for par on Sunday to fall out of the places while Bezuidenhout needing…

So on to the second PGA Tour event of this week, which is the Barracuda Championship.

The Barracuda Championship was first played in 1999 and was initially known as the Reno Tahoe Open.

This year we have a change of venue with the tournament moving from Montreux Golf & CC midway between Reno & Lake Tahoe to the Old Greenwood , which…

For the risk of beginning to sound like a stuck record it was another week for us that held promise going in to the weekend and Sunday but unfortunately once more failed to deliver, with both of our players in the hunt for places Patrick Rodgers and Si Woo Kim unable to push on.

To add insult to injury the man who took home the trophy Michael…

Once again it was a hugely disappointing end to a week that had promised a lot going in to Sunday for us as the two guys we had with win or place chances heading in to the final day, Danny Willett and Patrick Cantlay conspired to shoot +17 between them!!

Yes, the scoring was brutally tough but both men, particularly Willett, had been solid over the previous…

It was a fantastic tournament last week at the Workday Charity Open as Collin Morikawa bagged his second PGA Tour title in a thrilling play off victory over Justin Thomas.

After a slow start to the day JT looked to have the event in the bag as he stood on the 16th tee with a three shot advantage, however bogey’s on the 16th and 18th coupled…

It is fair to say that last week in Detroit wasn’t our week….

Six picks and two ended up withdrawing over the first couple of days with back problems says it all for the week.
We did have Brian Stuard right in the mix for us after a couple of rounds however he had a shocker of a Saturday, which unfortunately is symptomatic of how things…

Our week at the Travelers Championship started badly when our headline selection Brooks Koepka withdrew prior to the off for Covid related issues and it never picked up from there unfortunately as three of the remaining four members of our team missed the cut, while the one who did make it through to the weekend, Joaquin Niemann, was hampered by a…

The Travelers Championship

It was a cracking tournament at Hilton Head with up to 30 players having a chance going in to Sunday’s final round with the only shame being that a near three hour weather delay pushed the finish back in to the small hours for those of us in the UK.

In the end Webb Simpson bounced back from a rare missed cut at Colonial to bag the trophy…

RBC Heritage

RBC Heritage

So the PGA Tour is officially back up and running and I’m delighted to say it would seem that week one of the new ‘for the time being normal’ appeared to go without a hitch.

In the lead up there had been much talk as to how the Charles Schwab Challenge would be effected by a lack of fans but the general consensus seemed to be that their absence wasn’t…

When the first players tee off on Thursday at Colonial Country Club it will be 92 days since a ball was last struck in anger on the PGA Tour at TPC Sawgrass.

In that time a lot has changed in the world that we live in and there will be many who feel that the PGA Tour is returning sooner than it should be, or that, allowing for what has…
