"I gave it a big fist pump, then my mind sort of went blank for a while before I went to my bag and texted my girlfriend and my dad because I knew they were at home glued to the live scoring."

Huge congratulations to @Alexmaguire13 on his victory today on the @clutchprotour, which has been coming for a while

That’s 3 Irish winners in the first 5 events on the tour. Excellent start to the year

@Birdieclubtips @DPWorldTour Technically, for what it’s worth, Hugo Townsend was born in Ireland but made in Sweden.

Something special for Masters Sunday. The founder Robert Tyre Jones Jr. and his masterpiece.

The risk I mentioned below is worth it when uncovering lost films that haven’t otherwise made it through to the modern era. Whether that be the free streaming platforms or those behind a paywall. Nor the VHS era for that matter, they are recovered from the original old reels.

I have lost films of all the legends and iconic courses etc. from 1920s onwards. Some of those are the icon that is Bobby Jones. He filmed a lot more than the Warner Bros series.

This one below is from the 1930s, filmed at Augusta National and also features power hitters Jimmy Thomson and “Cannonball” Lawson Little.

Little won 32 consecutive matches on the way to British Amateur and US Amateur championship victories in both 1934 and 1935 (“The Little Slam”).

Jim Nantz has said Little holds the same special place in his heart as others have players like Ben Hogan, largely because they have the same connection to the Monterey Peninsula area. Jim isn’t on social media but perhaps someone could share this with him.

It is nice to hear Jim and the CBS team this week which we don’t have week to week in Australia anymore after the PGA Tour made the bizarre decision to give us a hotchpotch commentary team and coverage for the regular tour events.

Note in this film the beautiful Alister Mackenzie bunkering on 2 and 8 that has sadly not been fully preserved by their custodian Augusta National. In the early days they looked like they could be from the Melbourne sandbelt along with other Mackenzie masterpieces. Now they look quite unremarkable relative to what they were. Mackenzie once said he wanted bunkering to look like shark’s teeth from a distance. Now they are rounded off and lacking that distinctive character.
