Crap drive. Seemed to rush it. Hopefully he can shoot for the around green, chip and putt (or two putt).

Good chip! You can see the dirt on the ball.

Well done Padraig.

Winner! The hard way of course.

Good man Padraig, in fairness to him he knows how to get across the line when he gets in contention.

Tremendous, great to see him back in the winner's enclosure

Seamus Power taking a very early lead at the Sanderson Farms Open in his first full season on the PGA tour

He's -7 for his 1st round after 16 holes

Wasn't sure where to put this:

http://www.bbc.com/news/world-australia-37856182

...Two Australian men managed to bluff their way into an 18-hole international tournament in North Korea by posing as world-class golfers....

...Mr Ruig and Mr Shay, who became friends at Brisbane Boys' College, did not come close to beating the Supreme Leader's supposed world-record 38 under par.

"I hit 120 and my caddy told me I had bought great shame to my family," Mr Ruig said....
