There was a breakthrough moment for TaylorMade golfer Daniel Berger on the PGA Tour this week, claiming a three-shot victory in the FedEx St Jude Classic. On a course that puts a premium on hitting fairways, Berger excelled with the latest additions to his bag – TaylorMade M2 driver and fairway wood. In fact he averaged almost 310 yards off the tee (T5) and hit 60% of fairways over the week (T11), a winning combination in any tournament. After dropping a shot on the first hole, Berger steadied himself with two birdies on the front nine. Three further birdies in the space of four holes on the back nine secured a maiden Tour victory for the American, who heads into this week’s US Open in fine form.

Austria played host to this week’s European Tour event, as the Lyoness Open rolled into town. With many of Europe’s best choosing to familiarise themselves with surroundings for next week’s US Open, it was a less than stellar field in Austria. The Diamond Country Club – host to this week’s event – is a brute of a course, measuring near 7,500 yards and it certainly showed with no golfer carding four sub-70 rounds. But history was made nevertheless. Ashun Wu became the first Chinese golfer to record multiple European Tour victories after a one-shot triumph on Sunday. The Srixon Brand Ambassador started the final day one back from the overnight leader, but a birdie at the gentle par-5 first eased any early-round butterflies. Another four birdies before the turn meant that Wu entered the back nine with a three-shot cushion. Things started to unravel for Wu as a bogey on 11 followed a double at 10, finding himself tied for the lead for seven holes left to play. Although briefly falling one behind, two birdies in three holes regained Wu’s outright lead before pars at the final few holes secured a second European Tour victory.
