Defending Masters champion Jon Rahm and Legion XIII teammate Tyrrell Hatton will head to Augusta National this week after celebrating their second LIV Golf team victory of the season. Stinger GC’s Dean Burmester isn’t in the field for the year’s first major, but he made a bold statement Sunday on one of golf’s toughest courses.
Dean Burmester holds a one shot lead going into the weekend at the Omega European Masters after adding a bogey-free round of 65 to his opening 64. The two-time European Tour winner got to 11 under par at Golf Club Crans-sur-Sierre, edging ahead of England’s Andy Sullivan and Thomas Detry of Belgium, as he goes in search of his second win of the season following his Tenerife Open triumph.
It was a relative surprise when Hideki Matsuyama picked up his first major title at The Masters and it is no easy task picking the winner of the PGA Championship this week. Kiawah Island throws up many challenges to the best in the world, especially if the wind starts blowing.
Dean Burmester earned his second European Tour title at the Tenerife Open, sealing a five-stroke victory with a stunning nine-under-par final round display at the Costa Adeje course in Tenerife. The South African began the day one shot back at Golf Costa Adeje, with a crowded chasing pack as 18 players sat within five strokes of the summit.
There was a three-way tie at the top of the leaderboard after day one of the Dubai Duty Free Irish Open, as Dean Burmester, Jordan Smith and Aaron Rai all carded five-under rounds of 65 at the tricky Galgorm Castle Golf Club.
