Scheffler, Morikawa, Homa, Aberg and DeChambeau all in contention hopefully it's gonna be a cracking finish.

Not the finishing I was hoping for Scheffler was just too good, superb performance from Aberg playing his first major, looks likely to be a big star in the future, also great effort from Tommy Fleetwood, finishing joint 3rd.

Nelly Korda equalled a LPGA record by winning her 5th tournament in a row, when she won the first women's major of the year yesterday, that is very impressive.

Very impressive from Rory, despite a double bogey at the last, wins The Wells Fargo Championship in North Carolina by 5 shots, hopefully he will carry this form into the PGA, which starts on Thursday.

A sensational round of 62 from Xander Schauffle, 9 birdies no bogeys, equals the best round ever in the history of majors. Rory also had a good round with a 66.

Being in the slammer didn't affect Scottie too much.

Got to confess that when I heard that World's No 1 Scottie Scheffler had been arrested, I thought it was a jokey article about an obscure sport called Scottie Scheffling...

Equalled 2 days later by Lowry, and he almost had a round of 61. Hon the BIFFO!

Yeah brilliant from Lowry, 15 players, which includes Rose and MacIntyre, all within 5 shots of the lead, has the makings of being a great final day.

A lot of big names missing the cut in the Women's US Open, Nellie Korda. Leona Maguire, Georgia Hall, Brooke Henderson, Lydia Ko and Lexi Thompson all going home.

After watching rugby, cricket, tennis, and F1, finished the weekend watching Scheffler, despite scoring a 2 over par 74, win The Memorial by 1 shot from Morikawa, also good to see Matt Fitzpatrick finishing joint 5th, hopefully he will take that form into the US Open starting on Thursday.

As he prepares for the US Open, Rory has been appearing on the front pages as well as the back pages, following his reconciliation with his wife, hopefully this will improve his chances of at last winning another major.

It's at Pinehurst, North Carolina this year, the players are not happy with how fast the greens are, so you're not gonna be seeing low scores, as they're were in the PGA.

Scheffler's odds are as low as 3/1, then Schauffle 10, Rory 11, Morikawa 14, Hovland 16, De Chambeau and Aberg 20.
