Local knowledge pays dividends...
Our weather last week was fantastic but the same can’t be said for the European tour event at Valderrama, the committee had to cut the event to a maximum 54 holes on Saturday but then more lightening in the area suspended play on Sunday. Local man and host Sergio Garcia was in control with one round to play but had others hot on his heels. The disruption of a 5 day tournament didn’t faze El Niño however as he cruised to a 4 shot victory to win this event for the third consecutive year. The PGA Tour continued its Far Eastern swing in Jeju Island South Korea last week. It was here that the new world number one was crowned, with a back 9 29 for a final round 64 Brooks Koepka capped an unforgettable year with his 5th tour title to take him to the top of the world.
