If you ever have a chance to play Centurion Club north of London (St Albins) make sure you take either a electric troley, a cart or a Caddie so you will get more time to admire and enjoy the beautiful setting Florida's looking course design but most importantly, to ease your legs energy walking up the par5s 13,15 and 18th.

Marianne Skapnord knew this too well, thanks to her experience South African Caddie assistance she made massive long putts on 17 and 18 to reach the playoff and won the individual trophy* with another fantastic putt on extra hole walking away with the biggest cheque (51,579,16 Euro).

Another big (team) winner was Indi, Diksha Dagar with her supporting Father Narinder on the bag. I had the pleasure to follow them 18th holes as well watch them practice putting late at night. There believes and determinations is something to copy. A lucky draw from captain Cowan, brought Diksha great putting display with 12 birdies to get her biggest Pro career cheque to date (42,278,00 Euro).

Quote from Diksha “I was very confident we were going to win. It is all credit to the team to Olivia, Sarina and Andrew. There was a lot of positives and good vibes this week. We really enjoyed playing on the course, having fun.”

Overall I was impressed by the setting organizing of the tournament with a mixture of luxury, styles and performance players/influencers bringing Ladies Golf to new heights.

At last I must not forget Lexi Thompson's apparence a great asset to bring spectators and gave me a chance for a chat.

*Aramco have set up the Team Series which comprises of four $1 million tournaments. The format sees 36 teams of four, made up of three professionals and one amateur, compete over 54 holes per tournament. The captain of each team will get to choose one player in a pre-tournament draft system, with another professional being selected at random. An amateur will then make up the quartet, with prize money for the winning team being split between its three professional members. The format for the events will be simply who can shoot the lowest combined score over the three days of golf.

Now lets focus on the 149thOpen... #IamCaddiePlayerStephane just arrive at Margate > Royal Saint Georges not far away! 

Who’d be a Caddie? by Alistair Tait Golf

BrysonTim

Who knows why Bryson DeChambeau and caddie Tim Tucker parted ways after three years and eight PGA Tour wins together, including last year’s U.S. Open.

The average career span for tour caddies is about as long as the time modern humans are parted from their mobile phones. Often caddies get fired with little or absolutely no reason other than the old “the chemistry wasn’t right” excuse even though the caddie never once made a mistake. It is the most precarious job in golf.Quite who decided to initiate the break up is a matter for debate. Tucker apparently dumped DeChambeau, while Beefed up Bryson’s manager released a statement to Golfweek saying the parting was “mutually agreed.”

“The only time I talk on a golf course is to my caddie, and only then to complain when he gives me the wrong club.” Seve Ballesteros

*1904 Open Championship at Royal St.George's

Jack White was one of the original members of the PGA, and in 1901 Tom Roberts a founder member of Sunningdale Golf Club persuaded Jack White to become their first professional. It was from there he entered the 1904 Open at Royal St. George's, which that year attracted 144 competitors, and an extra day was required.  White completed his final round in 69 with the help of some long putts to finish on 296 - the first time 300 had been broken in a 72-hole Open. White was the champion and received the gold medal and £50 in prize money. White received over 300 letters and telegrams, including one from his former Parish Church Sunday School teacher, the Rev. John Kerr at Dirleton.

NELLY KORDA BECOMES NO 1 with a Putting average of 30..!? 

For the first time in her career, Nelly Korda has reached No. 1 in the Rolex Women’s World Golf Rankings following her win at the 2021 KPMG Women’s PGA Championship. She becomes the third American to sit atop the Rolex Rankings and surprisingly she did it with a Putting average of 30.

NellyKordaN.12021

This is quite surprising not so when you consider par5s double eagle on round4 (see above) overall scoring 11 under on the par5s assuming she must have reached most of them in two with two putts!

The SwingScore is a innovative/original data from CaddiePlayer.

Nelly Korda 64,5 SwingScore is outstanding and explain more/better why she reached n.1 


“Reaching World No. 1 has always been a goal of mine, I couldn’t have done this without so much support from my family, my caddie, my sponsors and my entire team, not to mention all the fans who support me every week."

PCR 19 all Negative > Trevose GC all Positive. Life on Tour under Pandemic rules!

Your next stop at Trevose GC Cornwall UK

I got my Day8 test Negative and Day10 theory quarantine is behind but I am still anxious about the overall situation of variant XYZ... What about you?

Last time I was on Tour as a free traveler/coach was back in 2019 for the Dubai Final Race. Seems an eternity ago... Thanks to CaddiePlayer Solutions as well the Internet I could still be virtually "Connected" to the World of Golf Tour but nothing can be compare to be on site at an life event.

Gladly behind all the Covid hassle restrictions/rules/administratives/bubbles I got my "Elite Sport Exemption" status, successfully completed my online education module on Rapid Antigen/Lateral Flow testing and could be back where I can deliver the best of my abilities (In Trevose Caddie and Coach to CaddiePlayer Legends Tour's Andre Bossert).

Coincidently I made my return at the rebranded LegendsTour part of the European Tour Age over50 events.

It was nice to see again all the Legends (Ian Woosnam and co) I use to cheer/admire whenever they would play The SwissOpen at my home course Crans sur Sierre.

I found the LegendsTour new format Alliance Pro/Am a great concept giving the opportunity to share game/friendship as well getting some preciouse tips. And what great satisfaction you get when you received such wonderful message: 

"I cannot tell you how much fun we had. You were the best partner I could have wished for and thank you for giving up so much of your time to make it such a great experience for us."  

Thanks to Andre Bossert his playing partner Billy (quoted above)and all others there who contribuated greatly to our back on tour week.

At last lets congratulate Chris Williams for winning the Farmfoods European Legends Links Championship at Trevose. See you all there again in 2022!
