The BMW PGA Championship flagship event is not appealing to elite golfers anymore!

The BMW PGA Championship flagship event is not appealing to elite golfers anymore!

The BMW PGA Championship will be taking place at Wentworth this week. This is a place that has been entirely associated with great and amazing things. The Ryder Cup which took place in 1953 was an amazing competition where the Americans squeaked through by a single point. This was followed by Ben Hogan who made his last challenging appearance in the United Kingdom and they partnered with Sam Snead to claim the Canada Cup for the United States. The World Match Play Championship was brought in 1964 and was designed by Mark McCormack who is the International Management Group founder and was invented for Jack Nicklaus, Arnold Palmer and Gary Player. The three played one of the most unforgettable matches.

There have been great matches that have taken place at the PGA which has been held at Wentworth every year since 1984. With various players taking part in the matches such as Seve, who beat Colin Montgomerie in 1991, according to the Golf Channel specialist Frank Nobilo, the PGA remains the most important event on the European Tour. If the Open Championship was overlooked the PGA remained the biggest week of the year. The fact that the event occurs once every year at the same place adds to its importance. It is an event that almost everyone watches on television, and great events such as when Bob Charles won the World Match Play in New Zealand.

However, not much will be expected from the tournament expected this year, there is a shortage of crew members in the European Tour’s flagship event, such as officer material. Roy Mcllroy who is the new Irish Open Champion will not be expected on the PGA on Thursday morning. Sergio Garcia, HenrikStenson, and Justin Rose who stated his absence on a late notice will also be absent. Ian Poulter who is the Ryder Cup hero has been known to dislike the course, which also includes the three-time major winner, Padraig Harrington. Paul Casey has also chosen to stay at home. South African players such as Branden Grace, CharlSchwartzel, Louis Oosthuizen and Els who is the course re-designer will be absent.

The event holds so much importance and the absence of such great players is quite a shocking situation. Nobilo says in order to counter this problem there needs to be more cooperation between the PGA and European Tours.

William Hill greyhound derby overview ahead of Sky Sports coverage of the third phase

William Hill greyhound derby overview ahead of Sky Sports coverage of the third phase

Finally the Greyhound Derby winner for 2016 will be made known this coming Saturday. What remains uncertain is exactly which of the remaining 48 contestants will be the crowned the winner. The competitions held last Saturday brought life in every possible way through the various emotions. This was one of the more straightforward restorations of the Derby. Ballymac Matt, who is the Irish Derby winner, was required to deliver the first crucial moment; as he came flying out of the traps to record a figure of 28.05 with Droopys Latina following closely behind. Kelly Macari’s dog which was eliminated in the opening round last year proved that the race was just a bad day at the office and the bookmakers certainly ran for cover.

Lenson Panda ran down the back straight to the enthusiastic encouragement of the crowd. This made the time seem so short. Unbelievably, the joy did not last for a very long time as Lenson broke a pawn, and the well-loved Jaytee Spartacus consigned himself to elimination as he cannoned into the afflicted runner. Lenny Ponder’s dog has however gone through a successful operation on his afflicted pawn and will be able to go through another day. Just like Premier Fantasy who came years before him, he left the Derby with the impossible question of what could have come out of the race. Lenson Sanchez won the race in the last second, as associates were trying to gain a spot of consolation. However, the crowd was glued to what was happening behind them.

Jaytee Jet was stopped short at the first turn making him lose all his balance and he found himself almost off the track. He was forced to join Badmoonrising on the line for disqualification. Farloe Cody was evicted on Tuesday but a run-off was not needed as both runners justly took their places in the drum. Eden the Kid pushed himself to the ante-post preference for the Derby after he succeeded on Thursday evening. He has made several changes on his running style since he covered the finals last year but he has not stopped liking Wimbledon. He is due to meet up with Droopys Roddick for a meeting on Saturday.

There have been nine Irish dogs progressing to the stage, where Jaytee Dutch did not seem to have a chance at qualifying. The most famous greyhounds in training is the Oaks winner, where Mark Wallis bitch secured her place in the third round. Only three will qualify to Tuesday’s quarter-finals.
