The world number one further cemented his status as the greatest player of the past five years with a dominant performance across the 2026 FedEx Cup Playoffs. Some had questioned Scheffler’s form and desire after a long – by his standards at any rate – winless run, even if said streak included nine top-five finishes….
The Solheim Cup does not receive the same coverage or generate the same excitement as the Ryder Cup but for those who love women’s golf it is just as important. The 20th edition of the Europe v USA clash will start on the 11th of September and this year it is Europe who are on…
The PIF London Championship witnessed one of the most incredible finishes to a golf tournament ever. It ended with Canadian youngster Anna Huang claiming the fourth Ladies’ European Tour (LET) of her short career. She beat England’s Charley Hull by two shots having begun the final round one ahead of her, though of course that…
On the 19th of July 2026, Aucklander Ryan Fox won The Open Championship at Royal Birkdale. The Kiwi, son of World Cup-winning All Black Grant Fox, saw off Cameron Young – and everyone else – to claim the first major title of his career. Over four days at a sun-baked Birkdale, Fox held his nerve,…

Sport can be cruel at times and players have their emotions toyed with in ways that can be hard to bear. Of course, they cannot really complain, as their suffering is nothing compared to the day-to-day lives of many, let alone the abject horror we see on the news virtually every night. That said, the…
LIV Golf, rather like flying cars, driverless cars, VR, AI and Alexander Isak, hasn’t really taken off in quite the way some had hoped or predicted. There is still hope for most of those things, and there is also no doubting the fact that AI has had a big impact that is likely to grow…
