In 1997, Frank Urban Zoeller, the wise-cracking winner of 18 years earlier, was asked what he thought of Tiger Woods’ win. On camera, he said: “That little boy is driving well and he’s putting well. He’s doing everything it takes to win. So, you know what you guys do when he gets in here? You pat him on the back and say congratulations and enjoy it and tell him not to serve fried chicken next...
Golf is a great game but it can still seem an elitist sport. Events like the Aramco Team Series are helping to open golf up to wider participation, writes the winner of this year’s AIG Women’s Open, Anna Nordqvist. For each event on the Aramco Team Series from London, Sotogrande, New York and Jeddah I’ve had brilliant teams but also a whole lot of expectations.
Sweden’s Maja Stark put on a clinical display to win for the second time in her last three starts on the Ladies European Tour after firing a superb tournament low-round 65, which propelled her to eight-under-par and two strokes clear of Pia Babnik at the Estrella Damm Ladies Open presented by Catalunya in Sitges, Spain.

In this, Men’s Mental Health Month, we really enjoyed watching the video of Beef and Tubes, the Soccer AM presenter, playing a few holes and chatting about mental health and other stuff.
We take a look at what the pros are eating before a game and during the round in an effort to find out where the GolfPunk team might be going wrong when it come to the golf diet!
Congratulations to Gary Woodland who stood firm under the pressure of a charging Brooks Koepka, the world number one and winner of four of the last eight majors he had played in. Others launched a challenge, most notably England’s Justin Rose, but all faded away as Woodland stuck to his task.
England’s Justin Rose birdied the final three holes of his round to post a six under par 65 and lead the U.S. Open by one shot. One of GolfPunk’s tips, Ricky Fowler, sits in second place alongside his fellow countrymen, Xander Schauffele and Aaron Wise, and South Africa’s Louis Oosthuizen. Rose’s round is the joint lowest ever shot at Pebble Beach in an U.S. Open.
