Big news from @NiallOfficial and his management company @modestgolf - the ISPS HANDA World Inv (July 28-Aug 1) will be a tri-sanctioned event between @EuropeanTour, @LPGA and @LETgolf. Field will be 288 - 144 men and 144 women. Purse is $2.35m split evenly.
India’s @aditigolf finished second to world No1 Lydia Ko in the $5 million Saudi Women’s International. One heck of a show by Aditi, and one screamer of a month where she finished winner, 3rd and 2nd.
This is funny.
"Why won't you play golf?" @KP24 asked @imVkohli.
"I played in 2008. I'd clear my legs and hit it over cover and @ABdeVilliers17 would tell me to go and fetch the ball myself! That's when I said I am not playing this game."

This picture is the reason why @SRTheegala’s dad, Murali, was greenside at Pebble Beach celebrating after @allisen_sc’s @uswomensopen win yesterday!
That’s Sahith and Allisen aged 6 winning the Junior World. Them, and their families, have been great friends since then.
@LPGA
Superstar @McIlroyRory has landed in India for the @DPWorldTour India Championship.
The Grand Slam champion was accorded a warm traditional welcome at his hotel.
Probably the biggest sporting event in the country outside cricket events, the $4 million DP World India
Just the news I was waiting for! @SRTheegala, who was the first alternate for the 150th @TheOpen, gets into the main field after Daniel Berger withdraws.
So, @McIlroyRory has faced a lot of criticism for skipping the @DDFIrishOpen this year.
But what does the sponsors @DubaiDutyFree have to say?
Here’s Colm McLoughlin on Rory’s decision...

It’s incredible how down to earth Twitterless Victor is. Just saw him at Nassau airport. The girl behind hm asked what he did.
Hovland: ‘I live in Oklahoma and play a bit of golf’.
Come on! You are actually the world No9!!!

People may say nobody cares about @livgolfinv, but this is the car park 2 hours before tee off! Rich Harvest Farm is teeming with fans. Incredible response from Chicago.
Sad news. Argentina's Eduardo 'El Gato' Romero has lost his fight against cancer.
Not sure how many from the present generation will know him, but he is an absolute legend and was deeply loved by his peers.
His short game was fire! Must have been taught by God himself. #RIP
