No pressure for Rahm but he has to win and keep the sports washers esp vulgar Mickelson at bay!

Go Jon!!

Mickelson clubhouse on 8 under after a round of 65, Spieth ruined his chance of joining him with a bogey on the 18th.

Still a few to go but I never saw Koepka blowing up like this.

Yeah Koepka was poor, he only started getting a few birdies, when it was too late, but well done to Jon Rahm, major number 2 and I would have thought quite a few more to come. No longer a fan of his, but fair play to Mickelson finishing joint 2nd is some effort, at the age of 52.

Good to see Matt Fitzpatrick winning again, beating Jordan Spieth on the 3rd play off hole at the RBC Heritage in South Carolina, his first victory since his US Open win last year.

Was good to see…could do without all the caddy lying down to read lines though…

Not sure how Speith’s putt on first extra hole missed but great approach from Fitz on the third

Jason Day wins the Byron Nelson in Texas, his first victory in 5 years, also a good tournament for Tyrrell Hatton finishing joint 5th, with the PGA starting on Thursday.

Frost delays the start of the PGA, that's a new one on me for a Grand Slam.

Good to see 2 Brits on the top page of the leaderboard, Justin Rose, not a surprise, Callum Tarren is, Rory in contention joint 10th 5 off the lead on level par, surprised to see Jon Rahm well down the leaderboard on +4.

Looking like the winner is probably gonna be either Koepka or Hovland, although you certainly can't rule out Conners. The pundits reckon Rose and McIlroy are still in with a shout, can't see it, if there is one player, who comes from the pack it's likely to be Scheffler.

A disaster on the 16th fairway bunker sadly ended Viktor's chances, but he's getting closer in the Grand Slam, don't think it'll be too long, before he wins one, well done Koepka a deserved winner. Star of the Championship was club pro Michael Block, finishing joint 15th, which included a slam dunk hole in one, the highest position a club pro has finished since 1986 at the PGA.

US open only 3 1/2 weeks away.

A great effort from Cornishman Harry Hall in finishing joint 3rd in the PGA event in Texas, sadly his drive on the 18th went in the water, blowing his chances of winning or going into a playoff.

Well done on 20 year old Northern Irishman Tom McKibbin on getting his first victory on the DP World Tour at the European Open in Germany, could he be the next Rory McIllroy in the making?

Great effort from Viktor Hovland in winning Jack's tournament on the first hole of the play off, gotta be one of the favourites for the US Open in 11 days time.
