As a young college student growing-up in rural Queensland, Australia Jason Day borrowed a book about Tiger  from his roommate, and it inspired him to improve his golf by practicing in the early morning, at lunch-time and in the evening.

MacIntyre was playing some 30 minutes behind the American and put himself to within a shot of Spaun playing the par-5 72nd hole but only to play a wild hook second shot, ...

Aussie Travis Smyth was brilliantly soaring high in the Land of the Rising Sun, eagling the last to sensationally claim victory in the International Series Japan by one. In a riveting finish, Smyth drained a 20 footer to claim victory and avoid a play-off with Thailand’s Pavit Tangkamolprasert and Ryosuke Kinoshita from Japan – at Caledonian Golf Club, near Tokyo. The 31-year-old Smyth’s final putt saw him shoot a seven-under-par 64 to finish at 15-under, with Pavit and Kinoshita both in ...

A clumsy last hole three-putt bogey has seen top-ranked Scot Robert MacIntyre’s lead cut to just one shot heading now to the final round of the rain-affected Valero TexasOpen.

Noon ...
