GOLF.GARA. Marcus Marching to The Open Beat

Southport, England: He may not have one of the most recognisable faces among competitors at the 154th Open Championship. But, at six-foot five inches tall, Marcus Plunkett stands head and shoulders above most of his rivals in the 156-player starting line-up. Report by Spencer Robinson – Asian Tour contributor.

Despite sitting a lowly 777th in the Official World Golf Ranking, the 32-year-old American has been garnering plenty of attention ahead of his Major debut at Royal Birkdale Golf Club. And not just because of his height.

GOLF.GARA.Ryan Fox wins maiden Major Championship at The Open in dramatic Birkdale climax –

The New Zealander entered the final day two shots off the lead and at seven under through 11 holes of his round was struggling to ignite in the toughening conditions over the sun-baked Southport links.

But he produced a brilliant, gutsy performance down the stretch to claim the Claret Jug and be crowned Champion Golfer of the Year.

In his typical fast on-course manner, he seized the moment with four birdies in his final six holes, producing two of his career-best shots at the 18th, before holding his nerve to hole an 11 foot birdie putt to claim a one-shot triumph over American Cameron Young, who had earlier set the clubhouse target at nine under with a 64.

GOLF.GARA.Contented Travis exuding positive vibes

Southport, England: Travis Smyth cut a contented figure as he strolled around the village of Birkdale, taking in the sights and sounds of the area that is playing host to this week’s 154th edition of The Open Championship. Story by Spencer Robinson, Asian Tour contributor.

“Birkdale village is so beautiful. You’ve got awesome little cafes, bars and restaurants. It’s got a really nice vibe to it,” said the 31-year-old Australian. “Pretty much everyone here is getting around the tournament which is really cool.”

Ahead of his second Open Championship appearance, Smyth has every reason to be at peace with himself – and confident about his prospects in the northwest of England.

GOLF.GARA.Herbert emulates Millbrook 62 to soar at Royal Birkdale

With an eight-under-par 62 in round two of the 154th Open Championship at Royal Birkdale, the Australian equalled the all-time low round in the 166-year history of men’s Major championship golf. A fabulous feat worth celebrating.

While justifiably proud of his achievement, Herbert was also left to ponder on a final-hole bogey that denied him the chance to create history with a first-ever 61 at the very highest level of the game.

“I’m absolutely disappointed (not to shoot 61), and at the same time, so proud of today,” said Herbert, whose 62 was emulated by American Sam Burns less than an hour later.
