The RSM Classic – what’s at stake at the season finale?

Winter is here. Temperatures are beginning to drop, Christmas lights have started to be hung, and extra layers are now an essential out on the golf course. It’s been a long, thrilling year in the world of golf. Rory McIlroy finally claimed the elusive green jacket to complete an illustrious career grand slam, Team Europe etched themselves in the history books at Bethpage Black, and Tommy Fleetwood clinched his first win on the PGA tour, which like his European comrade, had shunned him for so lon...

Journey to Pro: Aaron Rai

For English golf fans, Aaron Rai provides a certain endearment. His steady performances on the course combine with his panache golfing inventory to create an undeniable attachment between those who love the game and the Wolverhampton boy.
Whilst known predominantly for wearing two gloves and using headcovers for his irons, the 30-year-old has a game to match his bold style. Now a regular sight at the top of many a PGA leaderboard, Rai has proven his worth competing against the crème de la crème....

Journey to Pro: Jon Rahm

Watching professional sport can often lead to what feels like a connection between yourself (the viewer) and a particular sportsperson. You’ve never met the athlete in question, but you can recall every goal they scored in the 2013 Premier League season, or every home run struck under the lights. It’s a journalist’s job to appraise an athlete, give an informed opinion essentially, not too dissimilar to the assumed role of a fan. But to be well-informed requires a knowledge of the athlete’s journ...

“I’m like every other ten handicap” – Wayne Gretzky on a wonderful week in St Andrews

No use “sitting there and complaining about it” – Patrick Reed on the challenges of links golf

The third day at the Alfred Dunhill Links Championship was halted once again by the fiendish Storm Amy. Barely 15 minutes into the already delayed shotgun starts, the call was made to suspend play. Last year’s Championship was a sight to behold, as we were treated to glorious sunshine and gentle breezes, providing the perfect week for golfing. This week could not be more different, and the players have had to work harder than ever to post competitive scores.
Golf Today spoke to one man who appre...

“We mean business” – Piers Morgan gets off to a flyer at the Alfred Dunhill Links Championship

The Alfred Dunhill Links Championship is underway, with most of the harsh weather that was forecast holding off to produce a low-scoring day at the top of the leaderboard. The competition has entered its 40th year, and is a season highlight for many of the pros, attracting a multitude of A-list celebrities who are able to compete as amateur golfers.
The Dunhill (as it is better known) runs simultaneously as a Pro Tournament and a Pro-Am event, with all 168 professional golfers paired with an ama...

Piers Morgan: “Disgusting” American fans made Europe play better

It’s a new week in the world of golf, but the main topic of contention is still very much the same. The American fans took it too far during last week’s Ryder Cup; that much is obvious to anyone. The insults and jeers hurled at the European team, from behind the ropes, outraged players and fans alike, including Piers Morgan.
Ahead of his return to the Alfred Dunhill Links Championship, Golf Today chatted to the man who deals in spades when it comes to controversy.

What a week. The Fairytale of New York, signed and sealed in utterly dramatic fashion. Captain Donald and his determined twelve will return home as heroes, back-to-back Ryder Cup victors, having conquered team USA and their vexatious Bethpage Patrons in a spectacle of team golf. 15-13 and a historic finish — what a way to banish the disaster of Whistling Straits into distant memory.
This week, it’s a chance to unwind, as the pros head to St Andrews for the Alfred Dunhill Links Championship, from...

Thick-skinned Baker will not be deterred by worst possible start to international career - Guerilla Cricket

“Markram obviously fancied a piece and got a few away, and he's a very, very good player. Not the best I've bowled, but looking back at my areas, there was a ball at 89mph, a little bit above top of leg stump, and he hit me over square leg for six. I was like, ‘Hmm, OK, fair enough.’”

England claim comfortable series win as Cox continues Hundred form - Guerilla Cricket

A player of the tournament award in last month’s Hundred was enough to earn the explosive top-order batter a late call-up for the Ireland tour. Having scored 367 runs at an average of 61.16, striking at 173 for the Oval Invincibles, it was a mystery as to why he was not included in England’s side for the first T20, earlier this week. With Sam Curran away for personal reasons, Cox finally got his chance - and there was only one way that he was going to play.
