European Tour Oman hosted its inaugural European tour event last week and the Al Mouj course went down a treat. There was a debut winner in Finland’s Sami Valimaki who after a total of 13 under par defeated South African Brandon Stone in a playoff.
PGA Tour On the PGA tour it was the Honda Classic and the start of the Florida Swing. The PGA National is a tough golf course, none of the holes more so than the trifecta of holes at the bear trap, 15,16 & 17 can be card wreckers to say the least. Luke Donald was back to his best for the most part until his challenge faded on Sunday, Tommy was close yet again in search of his first win but it was Korea’s Sung-jae Im who tamed the bear, a superb final round of 66 earned him a one-stroke victory.
