Greetings golfers,

Tiger is back, and he looked good! There’s no question that the game of golf is better when Tiger is around. The Hero World Challenge in the Bahamas was his first event for almost a year. Scoring was good but on Sunday the scoring for Rickie Fowler was obscene as he carded an 11 under par 61 to lift the trophy. Tommy Fleetwood confirmed his place amongst the world’s best with a 3rd place finish

South African Dylan Fritelli beat India’s Arjun Atwal in a playoff to win on the European tour in Mauritius while Australian Cameron Smith won the Australian PGA championship down at Royal Pines resort.
