US Open qualifying...European group results
The road to the U.S. Open continues with sectional qualifying, the second and final stage for U.S. Open hopefuls. There are 13 sectional sites - 11 in the U.S., one in England, and one in Japan. The international qualifiers took place yesterday, while the U.S. qualifiers are on June 3.
Here are the results from europeantour.com
Simon Khan put his play-off defeat in the BMW PGA Championship behind him to secure one of the 12 spots on offer in the US Open qualifier at Walton Heath.
Khan admitted he had a sleepless night after losing to Italian Matteo Manassero on the fourth extra hole at Wentworth in The European Tour’s flagship event on Sunday.
But he showed few side-effects in the wake of that disappointment as he led the 94 hopefuls competing in the 36 hole qualifying event for next month’s US Open Championship at Merion Golf Club.
The 40 year old followed an opening round of 67 on the Old Course with a 70 on the New Course for a seven under par total of 137, finishing one stroke clear of Englishman Paul Casey and South African Jaco Van Zyl.

Matteo Manassero became the youngest BMW PGA Championship winner in history at the age of 20 after a thrilling play-off victory at Wentworth Club.
The Italian finished level with 2010 winner Simon Khan and Scotland’s Marc Warren on ten under par after 72 holes, but after Warren exited at the first play-off hole having driven into trees down the right, the two remaining players looked inseparable.
It was the fourth additional trip down the 18th that eventually split Manassero and Khan – the latter finding water with his second while Manassero fired a brilliant approach to 20 feet and two-putted for birdie.

Volvo World Match Play lacks umph !!
In years gone by the old Piccadilly World Match Play run by Mark McCormack at IMG was the premier match play event in the world, played on the Burma Road Course at Wentworth.
The only other match play was the Ryder Cup and before the European team came into being back in 1979, it was not very good match play as the States and all their big guns overwhelmed the GB & NIre teams.
So when Arnie and Jack and Trevino and Weiskopf etal came over to play alongside Player, Marsh, and Brits like Tony Jacklin and Brian Barnes, Brian Hugget, Peter Oosterhuis, Neil Coles had a shot at beating them over 18 or 36 holes, it was a magical competition.
Since those days the Ryder Cup has become 3 of the greatest days in sports, the Accenture MatchPlay in Arizona has been made a WGC ensuring attendance from the world's top 50, and the old Piccadilly, now called the Volvo has fallen on hard times.
In fact a few years ago it lost it's sponsor and folded until Volvo resurrected it and moved it to Spain to ensure good weather, now this year it is at a spectacular new venue, the Thracian Cliffs Golf and Beach Resort designed by Gary Player in Bulgaria.. (click here to view )http://www.europeantour.com/europeantour/season=2013/tournamentid=2013036/news/newsid=191535.html
It has lost it's niche, has a round robin formula that confuses most viewers, that has taken the sudden death excitement out of it, until the latter rounds at least, and the world's best are not in attendance taking away the David vs Goliath match ups that were so appealing.
It simply lacks umph !!

pgatour.com Tiger Woods had the last word against Sergio Garcia by winning THE PLAYERS Championship
Woods ended a weekend of verbal sparring with Garcia by doing what he does best, closing out tournaments, even if he let this one turn into a tense duel over the final hour at TPC Sawgrass. Tied with Garcia with two holes to play, Woods won by finding land on the last two holes for par to close with a 2-under 70. He finished at 13-under 275 to earn 600 FedExCup points to increase his lead in the season-long standings.
If only it were that simple for the Spaniard.
Garcia was standing on the 17th tee shot, staring across the water to an island as Woods made his par. He took aim at the flag with his wedge and hung his head when he saw the ball splash down short of the green. Then, Garcia hit another one in the water on his way to a quadruple-bogey 7. He completed his stunning collapse by hitting his tee shot into the water on the 18th and making double bogey, finishing with 76 -7.
It is Tiger's 4th win of the year, better than anyone by far..

Paired in the final group with Sharp, the LPGA Tour veteran held the driver’s seat throughout Sunday despite recording her first blemish on her scorecard for the week with a double-bogey on the par-4 third hole. Kueny admitted after the round that despite solid ball striking throughout the day, she was plagued by a cold putter throughout her opening nine

All the big boys falter, Derek Ernst (who?) wins at Quail Hollow...all Canadian scores
Despite the rain they managed to get the Wells Fargo done, but with all kinds of big names like Mickelson, Westwood, McIlroy falling by the wayside, another relatively unknown player hit the jackpot. Derek Ernst, ranked 1,207 in the world beat David Lynn in a playoff, put a million bucks in his jeans, and is good to go for 2 years on tour starting with the Players Championship this week..
Here is the wrap up of all tours, including every Canadian score..
PGA TOUR - WELLS FARGO CHAMPIONSHIP
COURSE: Quail Hollow Club (7,492 yards, par 72).
PURSE: $6.7 million. Winner’s share: $1,206,000.
CANADIAN CONNECTION: Stephen Ames MC, Brad Fritsch T68 +7 71 72 77 75, David Hearn T43 +2 69 72 75 74, Mike Weir MDF 72 73 76
Round 4
pgatour.com. Six days after Derek Ernst received a call that he was in the Wells Fargo Championship as the fourth alternate, the 22-year-old rookie found himself one shot out of the lead and 192 yards away from the flag on the 18th hole, the toughest at Quail Hollow in the cold, wind and rain of a grueling final round.
Ernst choked up on a 6-iron and hit a draw that landed 4 feet from the hole for one of only four birdies on the closing hole Sunday.
The birdie gave him a 2-under 70 and tied him with David Lynn of England, who also had a 70. And it turned out to be no fluke. Returning to the 18th in the playoff, as the rain started coming out harder, Ernst hit a 3-iron to about 15 feet left of the flag that set up his stunning victory.
Phil Mickelson didn't get a chance to join them. He had a one-shot lead with three holes to play until making back-to-back bogeys, missing putts of 6 feet and 10 feet. His 20-foot birdie putt on the 18th narrowly missed, and Mickelson closed with a 73
So ended a strange week at Quail Hollow. The greens were shockingly bad due to weather and agronomical issues, which led to several players dropping out. The sun never really came out all week, and the wind chill Sunday morning made it hard to believe it was the first weekend in May. It felt like February at Pebble Beach
Ernst was playing only his ninth PGA TOUR event. He was No. 1,207 in the world ranking. He was in a car headed to Athens, Ga., to play a Web.com Tour event when he got the phone call that there was a tee time for him at Quail Hollow.
Robert Karlsson, the Swede who now lives in Charlotte, needed a birdie on the last hole to get into the playoff but made bogey for a 72. That left him in a tie for fourth with Westwood, who was tied for the lead until back-to-back bogeys early on the back nine.
McIlroy was one shot behind when he made a double bogey on the 12th hole. He played that hole in 4 over for the week. He had a 73 and tied for 10th

LPGA TOUR - KINGSMILL CHAMPIONSHIP
COURSE: Kingsmill Resort, River Course (6,379 yards, par 71).
PURSE: $1.3 million. Winner’s share: $195,000.
CANADIAN CONNECTION: Sara-Maude Juneau MC, Lorie Kane T75 69 76 77 75 +13, Maude-Aimee Leblanc MC, Rebecca Lee-Bentham T71 70 72 81 73 +11, Alena Sharp MC, Stephanie Sherlock MC
Round 4
lpga.com It was another fight to the finish in Williamsburg, Va. at the Kingsmill Championship, as Cristie Kerr outlasted Suzann Pettersen in a two-hole sudden death playoff for her 16th career victory.
Kerr sank a two-foot par putt on the 18th hole to clinch the win and break into the winner’s circle for the third time at Kingsmill. Kerr, who shot a 2-under 69 in the final round, said she grinded out in regulation and felt lucky to even be in contention

Round 3 (Final)
pgatour.com.. Esteban Toledo celebrated Cinco de Mayo by becoming the first Mexican winner in Champions Tour history, beating Mike Goodes with a par on the third hole of a playoff Sunday in the Insperity Championship.
The 50-year-old Toledo, making his ninth start on the 50-and-over tour, eagled the opening hole and finished with a 5-under 67 to match Goodes and Gene Sauers at 6-under 210 at The Woodlands Country Club

EUROPEAN TOUR/ONEASIA TOUR - CHINA OPEN
COURSE: Binhai Lake Golf Club (7,667 yards, par 72).
PURSE: $3.24 million. Winner’s share: $534,915.
Round 4 (Final)
Brett Rumford delivered a short-game masterclass as the Australian became only the 31st player to win consecutive titles on The European Tour at the Volvo China Open.
After a nail-biting play-off victory at the Ballantine’s Championship last Sunday, matters were much more straightforward at Binhai Lake for the 35 year old, who surged clear with five birdies in ten holes to turn the final round into a procession.
A couple of dropped shots over the closing holes were no more than a footnote as Rumford signed for a four under par 68 and 16 under total – four clear of Finland’s Mikko Ilonen.
The fourth and fifth European Tour titles of Rumford’s career signal a remarkable upturn in form – he was 138th on The Race to Dubai a fortnight ago but now leads the way on €811,806, having won €775,406 in his past two tournaments
