The DP World Tour stops in India. A week not to be forgotten. A peculiar course. It’s the Delhi Golf Club. In the capital. Opened in 1948. Two greats such as Peter Thompson and Gary Player have taken part in its design over the years. None of those playing this week know it better than […]

Lowry opens a virtuous circle that must be closed in exactly one year’s time

Silvia Pereira — Sun, 13 Sep 2026 18:16:12 +0000

– When a player wins a top-level golf tournament by eleven strokes over the runner-up and, moreover, the next twenty on the leaderboard are squeezed into a narrow six-stroke margin, something absolutely singular and unique has happened. – Shane Lowry (-23) has been that ‘something’ absolutely singular and unique. The Irishman, indeed, won the Irish […]

Lowry was levitating, exactly the same as 17 years ago…

– On 15 May 2009, just over 17 years ago, Shane Lowry, a young Irish amateur, carded a 62 in the second round of his country’s Open, the Irish Open, a score that put him in the lead by two shots and helped him go on to win the tournament two days later. Today, also […]

More than six hours for the round, twenty players yet to finish and a Spaniard under par

Alejandro Rodríguez — Thu, 10 Sep 2026 19:49:22 +0000

– Something went wrong on this opening day of the Amgen Irish Open. Yes, we agree, the conditions have been harsh. It’s true that there was a lot of wind and, in the morning, it was also raining. It’s no less true that the mountains of tangled rough typical of a links like the Trump […]

Thanks, Adam: Rafa joins the fight with a borrowed bag

Alejandro Rodríguez — Fri, 04 Sep 2026 16:45:05 +0000

Rafa Cabrera Bello arrived at the Omega European Masters without his clubs. Nothing new under the sun. It’s not something golfers face every day, but almost. His bag didn’t show up at Geneva airport and the Spaniard was forced to improvise an emergency solution to be able to play in Crans-sur-Sierre. It’s never pleasant to […]

We’re getting a silly grin in Switzerland…

Alejandro Rodríguez — Fri, 04 Sep 2026 12:32:02 +0000

– La Armada showed its teeth first and is now taking a few bites. After the first session of the second day of the Omega European Masters it turns out we have five Spaniards inside the provisional top 10 of the tournament. So yes, it has us grinning foolishly thinking about what’s coming this weekend… […]

Nacho Elvira (-7) is the first leader of the British Masters after the first round of play at the Brabazon course at The Belfry was completed on Friday morning. The weather, for now, has given a respite, as forecast, and after more than seven hours of suspension on Thursday, play is currently proceeding normally. Storms […]

A great day to remember Rafa’s masterful round at Bellerive

– In the city of St. Louis, Missouri, almost in the heart of the United States, is the Bellerive Country Club, this week’s venue for the BMW Championship, the second playoff of the FedEx Cup and the event that will finally decide which 30 players qualify to play next week in the Tour Championship. El […]

Remarkable start to a new era for Ayora

Alejandro Rodríguez — Thu, 13 Aug 2026 13:37:58 +0000

– Ángel Ayora began a new chapter in his career this Thursday. The debut of the Danish Golf Championship this Thursday was also the first day of competition for the Málaga-born golfer without Juan Ochoa as his official caddie and with Adolfo Juan Luna as his faithful right‑hand man at tournaments. That said, Juan, his […]

Gentlemen, let’s put an end to the little joke about the Renaissance Club…

Alejandro Rodríguez — Wed, 08 Jul 2026 17:48:14 +0000

The Renaissance Club has been more than elusive with the Armada. It has even been cruel. The numbers are downright frightening. This week the eighth edition of the Scottish Open will be played on the North Berwick course and the reality is that there is not much to celebrate at present. It is not a course […]
