Pablo Larrazabal (ranked 31st by Golf Predictor) won the BMW International Open on the European PGA Tour. The 32 year old Spaniard won his fourth tour title with a final day 66 (-6) to pip clubhouse leader Henrik Stenson by a shot. The 2011 champion Larrazabal started quickly with 31 on the front nine and played tidily on the back nine to give himself a great wedding present two months early! Stenson was our top ranked player and despite the perfect conditions a lot of the bigger names failed to perform. Overall, we had only five of the top seventeen plus ties (5/19) in total.
Bubba Watson (ranked 1st by Golf Predictor) won the Travelers Championship on the US PGA Tour. The 36 year old American also started quickly and also won the event for a second time. However, Bubba had to dig deep on the back nine and eventually hole a three foot putt on the last to force a play-off with Paul Casey. After both shot par at the first extra hole, Watson took the title with a birdie on the second after Casey made a complete mess of a bunker shot. Including the winner, we had only five of the top eighteen plus ties (5/19)* as the US Open hangover affected the bigger names here too.
*Knox withdrew, thus promoting Donald to the top nineteen in the GP Ranking.
