He had the equal best round of the day, as much as he's a fucking dick, he got the job done.

Yes he did. He's an absolute dick and a most ungracious winner.  I'll continue to hope he crashes and burns. 

That may or may not be  a good direction of travel.

Or 'Do a Tiger', as we should call it.

Quite a boring last day considering yesterdays excitement. No one really got going. I’ve always been an advocate of making courses tougher but not sure after today

Can't agree with that. Tougher course  on a difficult day made it a great watch IMHO.

Edit to add . Fully agree yesterday was a fantastic watch.

Pity. What an absolute w****r he is. He should be asked about his “worst bunkers on the tour comment” but of course he won’t be. Usual sanitised sports interviews in the USA.

First thing you do is thank your sponsors. Not a word about the other players. An absolute arsehole.

**Fantasy Golf Week 9**

Rocket Man

After an exhilarating Saturday exemplified by the performance of Jordan Spieth and a tense Sunday, Bryson DeChambeau held off Worksop's finest, Lee John Westwood down the stretch to claim his 8th tour title. He now has a US Open and a win in both Jack and Arnie's tournaments. Impressive, whatever your opinion of him is. Of course this week will be remembered not for his win, but for the part time golfer/ full time bodybuilder's attempts to drive the par 5 6th hole. One of the most electrifying events in sports entertainment history.

Many of the bigger names struggled again, some are now desperately looking for some sort of form, with the Masters now less than a month away. So not too many points dished out this week. Enough however for @J_Stewart to regain the lead. Thanks to Bryson and 58 points, performance of the week goes to @Honest_Man#1 who climbs out of the basement.

The European Tour is back baby. A final trip to the Middle East for the time being as we have the Qatar Masters, which has moved from Doha to the 2018 Jose Maria Olazabal designed Education City Golf Club. More parkland than the linksy Doha, but it's still a typically exposed desert track. The Belgian pair Pieters and Detry head the betting.

However, all the attention will be a what is known as the '5th major'. The PLAYERS championship at Pete Dye's stadium course, TPC Sawgrass. A stellar field, minus Brooks Koepka, 48 of the world's top 50 go to post. A 1.5x bonus in effect here at a course that barely needs any introduction, with holes such as the iconic island green 17th. Maybe a much more nuanced course than it's given credit for, the list of previous champions suggest that anyone can win here, although it's predicted to play long and soft this week. In the words of Ben Crenshaw, "It's Star Wars golf, this place was designed by Darth Vader"
