The Safeway Open

The Safeway Open

After a great week to start the 2019/20 PGA Tour campaign at the Greenbrier it was a but like ‘after the lord mayor’s show’ for us at the Sanderson Farms Championship as the majority of our team never really got going and the one who did, Scottie Scheffler, stalled over the weekend.

Even so though it was a really enjoyable tournament to watch on…

The Sanderson Farms Championship

It was a great week for us at The Greenbrier and a fantastic way to start the 2019/20 PGA Tour season as Joaquin Niemann showed what a class act he is by closing things out with a 64 to land his maiden PGA Tour title and undoubtedly the first of many.

Things could have been even better for us as Viktor Hovland charged through the…

A Military Tribute At The Greenbrier

A Military Tribute At The Greenbrier

After a two week break, which in all honesty seems like a life time ago, the PGA Tour is back with its all new fall schedule to start the 2019/20 season.

First up to get the season underway is a trip to White Sulphur Springs, W Virginia to The Old White TPC, for the new September slot for A Military Tribute at The Greenbrier.

After a few frustrating weeks it was a great week for us at the BMW Championship with Justin Thomas producing a stellar performance to deliver on the promise of his recent showings.

After a great opening round on Thursday JT stalled slightly on Friday, however Saturday’s new course record of 61 saw him take the tournament by the scruff of its…

It was a frustrating week for us at the Northern Trust as all five members of our team performed well finishing between 12th – 30th place but, despite several of them threatening to do so, not well enough to make the frame…

So, we dust ourselves down and onwards we go to the second week of the Fedex Cup Play Off’s, The BMW Championship.

The Northern Trust

The Northern Trust

It was what you would call a ‘nearly’ week for us at the Wyndham with our win only bet on Webb Simpson coming up a shot shy in second place while Brian Harman finished in a log jam for sixth place missing out on a full place pay out by one shot.

To be honest that is fairly symptomatic of how our season has gone and we just need to accept that that’s…

Wyndham Championship

Wyndham Championship

It was unfortunately another frustrating week for us at the WGC-Fedex St Jude as despite being in a great position going in to Sunday with Horschel & Thomas, both men stalled on the last day and we came away empty handed.
The event was won by Brooks Koepka who turned in one of his imperious major type performances to overturn a one stroke deficit…

The Barracuda Championship

The Barracuda Championship

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.

Played at Montreux Golf & CC midway between Reno & Lake Tahoe the event is played ‘at altitude’ with the average elevation above sea level being…

WGC – Fedex St Jude

So that’s it for the Majors for 2019!...What a week it was though at Royal Portrush. A great golf course set up excellently, a fantastic crowd and a tremendous performance from a worthy winner, Shane Lowry.

The week started on a subdued note for the home fans with local favourite Rory McIlroy failing to deliver the goods, by the end of the week…

The Open Championship

The Open Championship

It was a disappointing week for us at the John Deere Classic with only Sam Ryder from our team threatening at any point to get seriously in the hunt.

Unfortunately though he could not keep up with the pace over the weekend and in the end we were purely spectators come Sunday evening.

Congratulations though to Dylan Frittelli, long seen…
