It was a disappointing week for us at the Sony Open as we were never at the races with three of our team missing the cut and the two who did make the weekend, Brendan Todd and sungjae Im unable to crack the top 40.

Inevitably you will have weeks like that from time to time and all you can do is dust yourself down and move…

It was nearly the perfect start to the year for us at the Sentry Tournament of Champions as our 35/1 pick Joaquin Niemann charged through the field with a final round 9 under 64 on Sunday before ultimately losing out in a play-off to Harris English.

Niemann who as regular readers will know I hold in very high regard was sublime for the vast majority of…

After it’s brief sabbatical of a month the PGA tour returns to our screens this week with its traditional year opening curtain raiser in Hawaii, The Sentry Tournament of Champions.

As has been the case for many years now this event marks the first of a two week stint in Hawaii as next week will see the first full field event of 2021,…

Six To Follow On PGA TOUR For 2021

SIX TO FOLLOW FOR 2021

With the return of the PGA Tour upon us after its brief winter break I thought I would highlight six players who I feel it will reap dividends to follow this year.

For clarification I have avoided the games biggest names and those ranked in the top thirty or so. After all no one needs me to tell them that Dustin Johnson, Justin Thomas etc will…

With the one week break on the PGA Tour the RSM Classic seems like a dim and distant memory now, however brining it to mind is still a fairly painful experience as it was one of those weeks that promised so much only in the end to deliver nothing.

To refresh readers memories heading in to the weekend our 150/1 pick Patton Kizzire was right in…

It was a good week for us at The Masters as three of our outright picks Cam Smith, Rory McIlroy and Brooks Koepka all bagged full place returns. Smith inparticular was hugely impressive, putting fantastically on his way to second place and becoming the first player in Masters history to shoot all four rounds in the 60s.

On pretty much any other year…

The pre Masters warm up, The Vivint Houston Open proved to be a cracking event and there is no doubt that the Tom Doak redesign of Memorial Park is a welcome addition to the PGA Tour.

From our point of view it wasn’t quite our week as Aaron Wise who had been on the fringes of contention throughout for us stalled on the back nine on Sunday to slip one…

It was a frustrating week for us in Bermuda as the vast majority of our team played solidly with five of the six finishing between 16th – 49th. Unfortunately though none of them could quite conquer the conditions enough to get right in the hunt so we came away empty handed.

The tournament in the end was won by Brian Gay who at 48yrs old continued…

It was another good week for us at the ZOZO Championship as despite not bagging the outright winner Patrick Cantlay three of our team of five Watson, Henley and 90/1 shot Ryan Palmer finished in the top seven places to give us a very handsome each way return.

As for Cantlay, who despite a slight blip on 16 played fantastically to reel in…

It was a profitable week for us in the end at the CJ Cup courtesy of Joaquin Niemann’s fine Sunday round of 66, which saw him creep in to sixth place.

The Chilean’s fast finish made the withdrawal of Jason Day with a neck problem after one hole of Sunday’s final round a bit more palatable as the Aussie had been right in the hunt for us in sixth…
