Horsey wins in Morocco, Phil in Houston, Lehman in Mississippi...
Wrapping up Sunday with A TOUR AROUND THE TOURS as we'd say on Fairways...
EUROPEAN TOUR
Trust me the 72nd was an ugly hole Van Zyl doubled, then Horsey missed to win from 5' then Davies missed to win from the same range to force a 3 way playoff. 3 holes later Horsey won in front of the Moroccan King and his guys who looked very bored as they waited for the presentation

Chris Baryla previews the Masters, analyzes his season so far.
"Tiger Woods would be on my list if he said he was going to play left handed and putt with his driver !!" more from Chris Baryla to follow..
I remember Rick Todd telling me last year that the next Canadian to win on the PGA tour not called Ames or Weir would be Chris Baryla
"He is by far the most talented player I have ever coached" said Todd, who was Chris's coach at UTEP during his college career.
Well Chris has not made a cut nor therefore any money in 6 outings on tour this year, and in a recent interview for FairwaysPlus he talks about his slow start, gives you some picks for Augusta icluding his thoughts on Tiger and looks forward to his next event..
BA.. Chris you haven't made a cut on tour yet this year. You must be frustrated..
CB.. It has been a sluggish start to 2011, not sure if my game likes to hibernate or what, but I seem to struggle the first couple months every year. Would like to blame it on winter rust, however I really don't take much time off so that excuse is a little thin. Either way, my physical game feels very good so hopefully the pieces will fall into place soon!
BA.. Have you played Augusta National ?
CB. I have about as much experience with Augusta National as your average golf fan! I have had a couple of opportunities to play but haven't taken advantage. For me golf has always been about the competition, not that I wouldn't be excited to tee it up at such a special place but what I look forward to most is the competitive challenge.
BA If you were filling out a Masters pool sheet, give me 5 names you would include
CB My picks for this year's Masters would definitely include a few guys looking for their first major..
.
1. Dustin Johnson hasn't been his best for the last month or so, but he is one of few who can run away with a big margin of victory.
2. Justin Rose has been playing great and has a history of good play at Augusta, if he makes ANY putts he will be in the mix on Sunday.
3. Luke Donald is playing well and is very tidy around the greens, he does have some longer clubs into greens so he'll have less room for error.
4. Hunter Mahan is the most consistent ball striker I have ever seen and he is putting well.
5. Tiger Woods would be on my list if he said he was going to play left-handed and putt with his driver. Downside is I think he has been playing left-handed and putting with his driver.
BA.. Considering his current mediocre play are you surprised the bookies have TTiger as their favourite to win the Masters?
CB.. It doesn't surprise me at all that Tiger is the bookmakers favorite to win, he is obviously not a favorite against the field as he has been in years past, but he is more likely to win than any other player individually.
BA.. You are off for the next 2 weeks, what will you do and when will we see you next ??
CB.. I will be enjoying these couple of weeks at home with my wife Amelie, will spend some time practicing and catching up with friends. This will probably be my last two week break for quite a while so I will definitely be savoring the time at home. We will be back at it the week after the Masters in San Antonio.
BA. Finally I have to ask you about your Canucks with the Stanley Cup playoffs just 2 weeks away..
CB Canucks just wrapped up the President's Trophy which is a nice honor and should give them a lot of confidence going into the playoffs. If the defensive core can get healthy and support Lou they should have a chance to play a lot more hockey this year! I would love to get to a couple of games late in a playoff run!
BA Thanks Chris..
CB.. Thanks Bryan, anytime..

David Hearn's brilliant play has him just 2 shots back at the Houston Open
Phil Mickelson, defending Masters champ, shot 63 today to take the lead at the Shell Houston Open and that is the main story of course..
My story is David Hearn with his -6 66 to stand at T5th He is 69 70 66 -11 just 2 shots off the lead and he will be off at 1.12pm Sunday playing with Anthony Kim in the 3rd last group.
9 birdies, a double on 5 and a bogey on 11 when he drove into the water on both occasions. Despite that he is T24 in driving accuracy and 10th in GIR. He is leading the tournament in birdies with 18 so far this week.
He has a tough task with Mickelson and the diabetic Scott Verplank both at -13, Aaron Baddeley and rookie Chris Kirk at -12 and of course defending champion AK at -11 Steve Stricker -10 Hunter Mahan and Paddy Harrington are at -9 ..
All this for a guy that was the 1st alternative !! So c'mon David..
Mickelson also had 9 birdies but nothing else but pars on his way to that spectacular 63.

My story is David Hearn with his -6 66 to stand at T5th He is 69 70 66 -11 just 2 shots off the lead and he will be off at 1.12pm Sunday playing with Anthony Kim in the 3rd last group.
9 birdies, a double on 5 and a bogey on 11 when he drove into the water on both occasions. Despite that he is T24 in driving accuracy and 10th in GIR. He is leading the tournament in birdies with 18 so far this week.
He has a tough task with Mickelson and the diabetic Scott Verplank both at -13, Aaron Baddeley and rookie Chris Kirk at -12 and of course defending champion AK at -11 Steve Stricker -10 Hunter Mahan and Paddy Harrington are at -9 ..
All this for a guy that was the 1st alternative !! So c'mon David..
Mickelson also had 9 birdies but nothing else but pars on his way to that spectacular 63.

Chris Baryla contacted me yesterday and I am expecting his Masters preview and an analysis of his game so far any time now and I will post it as soon as I get it.
10 or 11C today and while the ground is still soft and squelchy it is that time for many of us to stop the clubs from rattling in the garage and start our 2011 golf season.. There are several courses like Winchester open today, but my advice is to call first as it is still around 0 this morning, so there is frost in the ground.
Full report on today's action early this evening..

CHAMPIONS TOUR
Jim Rutledge is T38 E 72 and Rod Spittle T62 after his +4 76 in a very tough field as always at the Mississippi Gulf Resort Classic in Bioxi Miss. It took a course record-6 66 by Jeff Sluman to get a 1 shot lead over Open Champion Tom Lehman who says he will play about 18 of the 24 Champions tour events and 5 on the PGA tour... Mark Brooks who won the PGA Championship at Valhalla in 1996 is making his Champions tour debut. He is at -2 70 T13

Chris Baryla contacted me yesterday and I am expecting his Masters preview and an analysis of his game so far any time now and I will post it as soon as I get it.
10 or 11C today and while the ground is still soft and squelchy it is that time for many of us to stop the clubs from rattling in the garage and start our 2011 golf season.. There are several courses like Winchester open today, but my advice is to call first as it is still around 0 this morning, so there is frost in the ground.
Full report on today's action early this evening..

Friday's action in pro golf..
It's 145pm Friday and here's a summary of what's happening, or a tour around the tours as we say on the Fairways golf show..
EUROPEAN TOUR
Round to is all but complete at the Trophee Hassan II in Morocco and by my count there are 22 players within 3 shots of the lead held by Welshman Rhys Davies and Holland's Joost Luiten at -6
Darren Clarke moved into contention with his -5 65 and Micheal Campbell who I featured yesterday shot E 71 and is T17 in that large group at -3..
T1 DAVIES, Rhys* -6 18 -1 67 70 - - 137
T1 LUITEN, Joost -6 18 -2 68 69 - - 137
T3 HORSEY, David -5 18 -1 67 71 - - 138
T3 ILONEN, Mikko* -5 18 -8 74 64 - - 138

T3 ROCK, Robert* -5 18 -3 70 68 - - 138
T3 CLARKE, Darren -5 18 -3 69 65 - - 134
LPGA TOUR
It's 101 in the shade at the Kraft Nabisco on the Dinah Shore course ( playing here since 1972) in the desert of Rancho Mirage and round 2 is underway with Stacy Lewis at -7 leading an elite field, all of whom want to be the one who gets to cannonball into Poppy's Pond ( traditional winners celebration) come Sunday afternoon.
I must say that the girls do a great job with their appearance / apparel, most all beautifully dressed, very cute and professional
Sandra Gal the German star who won last week has carried that form here and she has a late tee time today in the worst of the heat so I will be watching to see how she handles that with the greens which they had to water heavily last night, getting crispier by the minute..
