Golf Mid Amateur Qualifying Tournament
The North Hants golfer chose to pace out a few holes on Sunday night rather than dig out his clubs and the tactic paid rich dividends. Seven birdies and just two dropped shots in a round of 67 gave Forster a closing tally of five-under par — one clear of four other players. Sam Easterbrook main image from Olton and Freddie Parlby from Hallowes also enjoyed a good day at Worksop playing to a par of 72 with rounds of four-under par. Tomorrow, the players will reverse courses before the field is pared down to the top 64 for the match play stages to be held exclusively at Lindrick. Forster was satisfied with his score after adopting a cautious approach to what may turn out to be a long and testing week. I stuck to the game plan and thankfully it paid off.

U.S. Mid-Amateur Golf Championship - Wikipedia
More linksy than just about anything in the U. Junior Amateur Championship conducted by the U. Golf Association. Junior at the Country Club of North Carolina who will join the college ranks this fall for the University of Alabama, Dunlap had the chance to try his hand at true links golf for the first time during his three-day stay at the resort as he prepared to defend his title. He was doing his best to figure out how to make a ball stop on the 14 th green at Bandon Trails, a short par 4 with a raised putting surface that sees plenty of amateur golfers play Ping-Pong back and forth. Dunlap, as one of the top junior players in the world, is accustomed to enforcing his will on a golf ball, making it stop on command. It will be a similar introduction to links golf for most of the players in the field — the tournament will include two initial days of stroke-play qualifying, then six rounds of elimination match play to determine a winner.

The new LIV Golf Tour will be hosting its third tournament this weekend at Trump National Golf Club in Bedminster, New Jersey, and while the world of golf seems to swoon at the mention of each new golfer who defects to the new league, the future format of this Saudi-backed tour is just now beginning to emerge. Another interesting idea the new league is toying with is relegation, the act of removing the poorest performing teams from the league at the end of each season. The focus on team competition is also curious. The sport of tennis made a big effort in the early s to promote team competition, and it was a colossal flop. The recent Pennsylvania Father-Son Championship saw a great finish in the senior division by a team with local roots.
