Xander Schauffele’s latest major win complicates another big accolade

Xander Schauffele’s victory at the Masters Tournament on Sunday has complicated his chances of winning another major accolade: the Player of the Year award.

The award is given to the player who has performed the best over the course of the season, and it is typically awarded to the player who has won the most majors. However, Schauffele’s win at the Masters was his first major victory, and he will now have to compete with other players who have won multiple majors this season, such as Scottie Scheffler and Rory McIlroy.

Schauffele is still a strong contender for the Player of the Year award, but his win at the Masters has made the race much more competitive.

BOLINGBROOK, Ill. (AP) — David Duval never should have given Pat Perez hope. Perez eventually did what a lot of people thought he would do, chipping in for eagle on the final hole of the BMW Championship for a two-stroke victory. With a one-shot lead and needing only to make par on the par-5 18th at Cog Hill, Duval hit a wild tee shot into the trees, then hit 5-iron so far left of the green that it disappeared into the rough.

Why tee height might decide the 2024 Open Championship winner

Tee height will be a key factor in determining the winner of the 2024 Open Championship. The R&A have announced that the tees at Royal Portrush will be raised for the tournament, which could make it more difficult for players to score.

The change in tee height is designed to make the course more challenging and to prevent players from hitting the ball too far. The R&A believe that this will lead to a more exciting and competitive tournament.

However, some players are concerned that the raised tees will make the course too difficult. They argue that it will make it harder to hit the ball close to the hole, and that it will lead to more bogeys and double bogeys.

The debate over tee height is likely to continue in the lead-up to the 2024 Open Championship. The R&A will be hoping that the changes they have made will lead to a more exciting and challenging tournament, but some players will be hoping that the tees are not raised too high.

What to watch in Round 2: Will Royal Troon get any easier? Can Daniel Brown keep it up?

Royal Troon lived up to its reputation as a tough test of golf on Thursday, with 19 players finishing below 70 and just seven breaking 70.

Defending champion Cameron Smith shot a 1-over 72 to sit six shots behind overnight leader Viktor Hovland, while Rory McIlroy and Jon Rahm also struggled to get going.

Can anyone tame Royal Troon in Round 2? And can Daniel Brown, the first amateur to lead The Open after the first round since 1947, keep it up?

England’s Brown takes Open lead in major debut

England’s Connor Brown took a one-stroke lead in the Open at Royal Portrush after a stunning first round.

The 23-year-old, who is making his major debut, carded a six-under-par 65 to leave him one ahead of American Xander Schauffele.

Brown birdied the third, fifth, ninth, 10th, 12th and 16th holes and is the youngest player to lead The Open after the first round since Rory McIlroy in 2010.

Schauffele, the world number 10, matched Brown’s score with six birdies of his own, but he also dropped a shot on the 18th.

Shane Lowry, who is seeking to become the first Irish winner of the Open since 1947, is among a group of eight players tied for third on four under par.
