What a final round from Rory.

Incredible round, but fair do's to Scheffler a fantastic golfer amongst many other fantastic golfers.

He's only 25 years old, but looks and comes across as in late 40s. These types of golfers America produces are so square, I imagine they come out of the womb wearing a polo shirt and chinos.

First time I've seen someone take 4 putts to win a major, but apart from that minor hiccup, Scheffler coped very well with the pressure of leading a grand slam, at such a young age, looks like being a multiple major winner.

See Tiger didn't commit himself to be playing in the PGA Championship or US Open, but said he would definitely be at St Andrews, his favourite golf course apparently.

He knew he had shots to spare. Just took the opportunity he had. to live his boyhood dream 4 times..."This one for the Masters"

Good to see the crowds turning out at the Belfry yesterday for the British Masters, around 15,000 there, a crowd Blues would be happy to see! I would like to think, I will see the Ryder Cup returning to the Belfry once again in my lifetime, but I'm not holding my breath.

Dane Thorbjorn Olesen won it, Richie Ramsay finished 3rd after blowing his chance of winning with a double bogey at the 18th.

The latest comments from Norman are beyond disgraceful.

Yeah condoning an evil regime, in one way I'm hoping he does qualify for the Open, then the British public can tell him exactly what they think of him.

Spot on that tweet…see also Newcastle.  If the justification like Westwood was ‘others have taken their money’ or Howe saying he isn’t getting involved in politics there is no way they will be stopped…blood money

I see Mickelson has withdrawn from the PGA Championship, good news another Saudi supporter.

Yep I’ve commented on Howe before, but Westwood essentially said he’s got to earn a living and others have taken the money - what an upstanding character is, and he must be struggling to get by in the world of golf which is obviously a game for paupers.

Good to see Sam Horsfield winning again, first win for nearly 2 years and with his girlfriend as caddie as well, can't be bad. Has qualified for the PGA on Thursday, interesting to see how he gets on there.

US PGA begins today in Oklahoma, Tiger no doubt will be the focus of attention once more, interesting to see if his game has improved since the Masters, he's in a group with McIlroy and Spieth. Bookies have got Scheffler and Rahm favourites at 11-1, Rory 12, Thomas 14, Spieth 16, Cantlay 18, Morikawa 20, best Brits Fitzpatrick 45 and Hatton 80. Casey has pulled out with a bad back.

Not a great round from Rory, hopefully that was his poor round, good to see Fitzpatrick and Hatton in contention.
