Did after noon. These are exciting times for British and English golf.

:00:29.:00:36.

It's only six weeks ago that Sheffield's Danny Willett slipped on

:00:37.:00:40.

the green jacket as the first European winner at Augusta National

:00:41.:00:45.

for 17 years, and the first Masters champion since Sir Nick Faldo, and

:00:46.:00:51.

only the second Englishman ever. Understandably there was huge

:00:52.:00:55.

excitement and anticipation about his first appearance on home greens

:00:56.:00:58.

since those heady moments at Augusta. He was the leading

:00:59.:01:04.

attraction coming into this year's BMW PGA Championship here at the

:01:05.:01:08.

beautiful Wentworth Club in Surrey. It's being staged here for the 36th

:01:09.:01:16.

time, and 41 of the top 50 in the Race to Dubai rankings on the

:01:17.:01:19.

European Tour were here. Serious business for Danny and everyone else

:01:20.:01:22.

in this great field that began on Thursday morning.

:01:23.:01:26.

The first day was a fine day and the chance to attack the West Course.

:01:27.:01:34.

Australian Scott Hendy had plenty of power, distance combined with a sure

:01:35.:01:37.

touch on the greens brought him a 7-under six T5, leading for a while

:01:38.:01:44.

on his own, but eventually joined by a major winner, Korea's YE Yang, who

:01:45.:01:51.

went back the US PGA in 2009. Nine in total for Joost Luiten to make it

:01:52.:01:58.

three at the top. Luke Donald going for three titles here, and he has a

:01:59.:02:03.

strong, loving relationship with the West Course, opening with a four

:02:04.:02:08.

under 68. The name it in most headlines was Danny Willett, the new

:02:09.:02:11.

Masters champion opening with a bogey free six T6 sitting just one

:02:12.:02:16.

behind the opening trio of first-round leaders. Day two brought

:02:17.:02:20.

an early start for Danny Willett, what a performance. Six birdies in

:02:21.:02:25.

eight holes took him to the turn in 29. He faltered coming back, taking

:02:26.:02:29.

ten shots more to reach the clubhouse, but 68 left him nicely

:02:30.:02:37.

positioned. I'm used to keeping quiet, doing my practice sessions on

:02:38.:02:40.

my own and now I think I'm being watched all the time! It's fine,

:02:41.:02:44.

it's part and parcel of what you expect, what it takes getting used

:02:45.:02:48.

to. He would soon have company at the top of the leaderboard. Scott

:02:49.:02:52.

Hend devours par fives and it proved on the last with a closing eagle to

:02:53.:02:57.

take him to 10-under. YE Yang had a steady 69 to leave him on the same

:02:58.:03:02.

mark. And a word for Scott Jamieson, his act nine was all pars except the

:03:03.:03:07.

10th, where he was injured perfect. Having missed the last four cuts

:03:08.:03:11.

coming he would make the weekend here and could drive home on Sunday

:03:12.:03:13.

night in his brand-new prize. Despite the hiccups on the homeward

:03:14.:03:22.

half on Friday, Masters champion Danny Willett is still ahead of the

:03:23.:03:26.

field, sharing the honours at the halfway mark with Australia's Scott

:03:27.:03:30.

Hend, a recent Thailand Classic winner, and fellow major winner, YE

:03:31.:03:35.

Yang, playing just his fifth event of the year. Seven men in five shots

:03:36.:03:46.

off the lead. Also within striking distance, the likes of two-time

:03:47.:03:50.

champion here, Luke Donald, and former world number one Lee

:03:51.:03:51.

Westwood. Defending champion Bjarne Hunt and

:03:52.:03:57.

was at level par. -- John Darren Clarke will be watching with

:03:58.:04:19.

interest because this weekend could shape his Ryder Cup team in the

:04:20.:04:23.

autumn with such a huge prize fund on offer. Making the early moves on

:04:24.:04:26.

Sunday, one of the man who would love to star in the, two-time major

:04:27.:04:35.

champion Martin Kaymer who has found form recently. This was his second

:04:36.:04:40.

shot to the 3rd hole and close enough for a first birdie of the

:04:41.:04:45.

day, the German on the move, five behind. Kaymer hasn't won a regular

:04:46.:04:50.

European Tour event for five years, pushed on at the next, eagle chance

:04:51.:04:55.

gratefully taken and the Ryder Cup hero was at 7-under par, just three

:04:56.:05:01.

from the top. The co-leaders knew he was in the picture. This at the

:05:02.:05:06.

short par-3 5th, Martin's 10th appearance at Wentworth in the

:05:07.:05:10.

Championship, and another golden chance to pick up a four shot in

:05:11.:05:17.

three holes. Martin Kaymer just two off the pace, being maintained by

:05:18.:05:20.

playing partners Danny Willett and Australia's Scott Hend, both at

:05:21.:05:28.

10-under. Korea's YE Yang was a shot behind having conceded a shot at the

:05:29.:05:37.

1st. COMMENTATOR: At last, Danny Willett is ready to play. What's a

:05:38.:05:42.

conversation with his caddy. Simple looking shocked, short iron,

:05:43.:05:47.

gripping well down the shaft. -- simple looking shot. Tugging his

:05:48.:05:56.

arms in quickly. Anything bad seems to go to the left. That's a good

:05:57.:05:58.

shot, on the green. Nice little putt at his second for

:05:59.:06:13.

par seems to have settled Yang. Second into the third.

:06:14.:06:20.

This could be very close. Unlucky. It's a slight Augusta type shot,

:06:21.:06:31.

gathering to the front pin, the little valley at the front of the

:06:32.:06:33.

green. This is not easy, playing a four

:06:34.:06:49.

iron. Old-fashioned. It gets up and that's good. Delightful.

:06:50.:06:58.

Some lovely bird song, I suppose they are watching as anxiously as me

:06:59.:07:06.

as he takes his second up to the third. Nature's chorus watching him.

:07:07.:07:14.

This green has been altered umpteen times since the early 1950s. Those

:07:15.:07:19.

shots, one going one way and one going the other. Both have shots for

:07:20.:07:22.

threes. Danny Willett into the second. A

:07:23.:07:38.

tricky one to read. Tracking, when it gets to the hole side it

:07:39.:07:41.

straightens up. It has caught a few people out today. Par, par start for

:07:42.:07:52.

Danny. This putt to go 6-under. And he's done it. Get in. He really is

:07:53.:08:00.

becoming a formidable player. Used to be a bit nervy but seems to be

:08:01.:08:02.

better. Now, the tall one from Bristol.

:08:03.:08:18.

Chris Wood, 14th hole, 4-under par. What a beauty. Flag on the lower

:08:19.:08:27.

level, as yesterday. Martin Kaymer at the 7th. A critical one, it would

:08:28.:08:31.

be a marvellous save from the front of the green. And he's done it.

:08:32.:08:36.

Super up-and-down from an awkward spot. Keeps the moment of the round

:08:37.:08:42.

going. Look at that for a card, just two behind. Van Zyl, birdie at the

:08:43.:08:52.

3rd after the excellent second. Just on the top side, our side, the

:08:53.:08:59.

right-hand side. Like that. Very smoothly done. Looks so easy,

:09:00.:09:03.

doesn't it? Yang's Berdych putter. He came back

:09:04.:09:24.

off the slope. -- Yang's birdie putt. Did the cha-cha-cha, but in it

:09:25.:09:33.

went. Danny Willett's third shot found a deep bunker on the right and

:09:34.:09:37.

he could only get it out 30 or 40 yards.

:09:38.:10:00.

I just think it was, just like you say... Campillo. He read that

:10:01.:10:15.

perfectly. Well done. Looked like it was running out of puff. Just enough

:10:16.:10:27.

pace and it takes him to 7-under. Chris Wood, after a lovely tee shot

:10:28.:10:32.

at the 14th, a par-3. He has this for two. Bank, well done. Nicely

:10:33.:10:41.

done, Chris. They hole-in-one here last year and won a lovely BMW. He

:10:42.:10:46.

moves to 5-under. -- bang, well done. This really is a bunker, not

:10:47.:10:56.

one of those flat, pussycat things, this one is really deep. Well

:10:57.:10:58.

played. Easy when you know how. After that splendid third shot,

:10:59.:11:23.

Willett has this to remain up at the head of affairs. Yeah, well done.

:11:24.:11:33.

Turns to the candy, a little chatter... No, no. Maybe in a moment

:11:34.:11:39.

or two. Never short of a word or ten.

:11:40.:11:49.

Beautifully done by Van Zyl. Both players dealing with the sand very

:11:50.:11:58.

well. Four tied for the lead on 10-under par. Van Zyl joining Yang,

:11:59.:12:02.

Hend and Willett. Campillo's third, he's getting there

:12:03.:12:15.

slowly after an awkward tee shot. You will have that to drop just one

:12:16.:12:18.

stroke. There we are, four out in front on

:12:19.:12:28.

10-under par with Van Zyl joining that group. Martin Kaymer in hot

:12:29.:12:38.

pursuit. Campillo has dropped a shot, back to 6-under.

:12:39.:12:48.

Good tee shot from Julien Quesne on the final hole. Birdies at 16 and

:12:49.:13:00.

17. Going for it. And getting it. Chance to finish birdie, birdie,

:13:01.:13:09.

eagle. Van Zyl stabbing it in there. I way it goes. A fairly sorry

:13:10.:13:21.

effort. -- away it goes. The 18th, it will be a fiery finish for Julien

:13:22.:13:27.

Quesne. This is for eagle at the last. Scuttling up the field.

:13:28.:13:37.

Now, Van Zyl has just joined the leaders at 10-under and this is to

:13:38.:13:48.

stay there. No. Back to 9-under for the South African. Bogeyed the

:13:49.:13:53.

second, a couple of the these at three and four, and that at the 5th.

:13:54.:14:00.

Backe goes, one shot behind. -- cup aloft -- couple of birdies. Does

:14:01.:14:14.

move a lot, that ball was well wide. Not in yet. Julien Quesne at the

:14:15.:14:23.

last hole. What a finish. Birdies at the last three. 6-under, currently

:14:24.:14:31.

tied sixth. That will make a few quid on Sunday, round in 67. Kaymer

:14:32.:14:37.

has been blowing fairly hot on the front nine and this is to close out

:14:38.:14:41.

with another birdie to get within one of the leaders. He and we

:14:42.:14:47.

thought he had that. It will be a par, outward nine of 31. Puts him in

:14:48.:14:56.

contention today. Danny Willett and Scott Hend tied for the lead with

:14:57.:15:03.

Yang and Van Zyl slipping away with dropped shots on five. Kaymer,

:15:04.:15:13.

steady as she goes with the leaders. Another big lip to come over for

:15:14.:15:17.

white yang. He's in the middle of the bunker. Should get it up, and

:15:18.:15:28.

does. It's a magnificent effort. Magnificent shot, running out. You

:15:29.:15:35.

will not seem any better than that today. It was high-quality. -- not

:15:36.:15:46.

see many. 14 inch drop, this putt. Doesn't sound a lot, but it's quite

:15:47.:15:47.

quick for Danny. Just caressed it, double breaker and

:15:48.:16:02.

in it goes. Beautiful putt, wonderfully red by Danny Willett.

:16:03.:16:08.

Judged it superbly. -- wonderfully read.

:16:09.:16:14.

A bit of movement in this. We can see where Peter Hanson is aiming,

:16:15.:16:21.

the pin so close to the water today. Wonderful putt by the Swede. Peter

:16:22.:16:29.

Hanson, his second birdie of the day, no dropped shots and he sat

:16:30.:16:33.

7-under. He will fancy attacking the flag on the eighth hole. This to get

:16:34.:16:40.

within one after that wonderful shot out of the bunker. YE Yang, very

:16:41.:16:44.

slow up the hill. Forward momentum for the Masters

:16:45.:17:03.

champion, Danny Willett. At one point on Friday he let this

:17:04.:17:06.

Championship by five shots. He's been pegged back but now has his

:17:07.:17:11.

nose in front by a single shot once again. Martin Kaymer's ball, don't

:17:12.:17:20.

know how close to the lip it is. And he's clipped the top of it. A little

:17:21.:17:25.

greedy, must have been right up against it. His second to the 11th.

:17:26.:17:36.

Scott Hend's second shot, this is an awkward one. If you can get it on

:17:37.:17:42.

the green it will have been a mighty good shot.

:17:43.:17:53.

And he has, will it go through the back? It scuttles through. Might not

:17:54.:18:00.

be all that bad. Tricky to get down in two.

:18:01.:18:09.

So many deliberations over this shot for Danny Willett. Just a wedge, one

:18:10.:18:22.

to 5-130. -- 125-130. Has to come back down the slope with the spin.

:18:23.:18:28.

Try to get it beyond the flag. Very nicely played.

:18:29.:18:41.

A bit more off the right and it has been. Kaymer, that's a catalogue of

:18:42.:18:51.

errors at the 11th. His round had been so impressive as well. A real

:18:52.:18:56.

shame. But one perhaps of his own making.

:18:57.:19:02.

Danny Willett on the seventh, a bit of trouble for his playing partner

:19:03.:19:09.

Scott Hend, who fluffed his chip from the back. He has something left

:19:10.:19:13.

for his par. Danny Willett for birdie now.

:19:14.:19:23.

He has given it a race. Not far from going all the way down the front.

:19:24.:19:36.

Now, Chris would. He came out of the bunker to hear for his closing

:19:37.:19:43.

birdie. -- Chris Wood. Sad way to end. Had great chance of birdie on

:19:44.:19:49.

17, good chance on 18 as well. Could have been a miraculous finish with

:19:50.:19:55.

birdies at 14 and 15. 68 for Chris Wood. In the group on 6-under par,

:19:56.:20:04.

could have been better. The result of that little chip from Scott Hend.

:20:05.:20:14.

That's gone on as well. At least one shot will go for the Australian.

:20:15.:20:30.

Testing putt for Willett. This is for par.

:20:31.:20:38.

Scott Hend to drop just one on the seventh, which he manages, but he's

:20:39.:20:58.

down in that group on 9-under alongside Van Zyl and Yang. Two

:20:59.:21:06.

behind Danny Willett. Slipping away from Danny Willett a little bit.

:21:07.:21:11.

Jaco Van Zyl with a double bogey at eight is back to 7-under. Chris Wood

:21:12.:21:18.

with a 68, leaving him 6-under par and having a chat with Hazel Irvine.

:21:19.:21:24.

A five, five finish of that round of 68. I sense a bit of frustration

:21:25.:21:29.

with that finish. Yeah, I played lovely today and didn't birdie a

:21:30.:21:35.

single par-5. The par fives here are very scorer bull. A 5-iron into 18,

:21:36.:21:42.

couldn't have hit a better shot, but maybe a yard for the left and its

:21:43.:21:46.

five feet away. Frustrating when you feel you leave a few out there.

:21:47.:21:54.

Kaymer for birdie at 12, and he gets it. Thank goodness for that. Dropped

:21:55.:22:03.

two strokes at the last hole. Back to 7-under. Thomas Aiken at 14.

:22:04.:22:14.

Chance for the South African to 6-under. Big group at 6-under.

:22:15.:22:29.

Yang taking the aerial route at nine. A lot of trees have been

:22:30.:22:38.

cleared out close to the ninth green. Some silver birch trees. No

:22:39.:22:42.

concern for Yang as he watches his ball keep on rolling. That will be

:22:43.:22:44.

for par. Hatton at 18. He's had a superb

:22:45.:22:56.

round. A big swinging birdie putt. Just ran out of steam. The par fives

:22:57.:23:04.

finish, a good round of golf from Tyrell Hatton. He will be out late

:23:05.:23:10.

tomorrow. Good round of 66. One dropped shot. Yang at the 9th for

:23:11.:23:14.

par. No. After a good tee shot, we

:23:15.:23:25.

missing the green wildly to the left.

:23:26.:23:34.

Another shot dropped, just a couple of shots, nine holes played. Should

:23:35.:23:43.

have done better. This is what you call an up and under. Has to flick

:23:44.:23:47.

it up quickly, or picked up the bank beyond the pin and let it run back.

:23:48.:23:54.

That is delightful. It's so tricky, tiptoeing on to the fringe and just

:23:55.:23:58.

killed it. Impossible to leave it short without going into the bunker.

:23:59.:24:03.

Can Van Zyl finish it off and save his par at the 9th? No. It was never

:24:04.:24:13.

running at the hole, was it? Very scrappy.

:24:14.:24:14.

Danny Willett with his second to the ninth. Flattish green.

:24:15.:24:28.

Straightforward shot. I find it hard to believe these

:24:29.:24:39.

talented players, with a short iron, and that really is very poor.

:24:40.:24:54.

From the right of the tents. Yang for his second. -- of the 10th.

:24:55.:25:13.

That's left for a par-3. Danny Willett, his third shot into the

:25:14.:25:18.

ninth. The leaders are struggling. This isn't easy. Shouldn't have been

:25:19.:25:28.

here. Sounded fluffy. That's the price you pay for a poor second. But

:25:29.:25:33.

you are not alone, Daniel. Yang is hanging in there, but only

:25:34.:25:45.

just. The pace was right but across the face of the hole. Bogeys at nine

:25:46.:25:49.

and ten, he drops to 7-under. Was at 10-under. The first Asian

:25:50.:26:05.

player to win a major Championship, the PGA in 2009.

:26:06.:26:15.

Scott Hend and Willett, the last pair out on the ninth. Fourth shot

:26:16.:26:27.

for Danny Willett. No. Well, from a beautiful drive into the perfect

:26:28.:26:32.

spot. That's not dead yet, it's three or four feet away.

:26:33.:26:40.

This is how it looks at the minute, Danny Willett with his first dropped

:26:41.:26:49.

stroke of the day at nine, he is 10-under. Scott

:26:50.:26:55.

Tyrell Hatton is with Hazel. What a back nine for you today. Very happy

:26:56.:27:04.

with that. It's my first round in the 60s. Very pleased. How special

:27:05.:27:09.

is it to produce a performance like that at a place I know has really

:27:10.:27:14.

inspired you as a player. Why do you love this place so much? I have been

:27:15.:27:18.

walking around this place since a five-year-old. I was in awe of the

:27:19.:27:24.

guys inside the ropes. Now I'm playing my third BMW PGA, and it's

:27:25.:27:28.

great, I love this event. Come and take two second to the 10th, and

:27:29.:27:38.

it's awkward. -- COMMENTATOR: Second to the 10th, and it's awkward. How

:27:39.:27:40.

will it bounce? Westwood, nearing the end of his

:27:41.:28:05.

round. Well done, 6-under. Another birdie at the last, 7-under.

:28:06.:28:10.

Good-looking got it? Oh! Thought it might just

:28:11.:28:33.

run out. Drops to 9-under. He joins Scott Hend as joint leaders.

:28:34.:28:44.

A puff of wind behind doesn't help Yang to land it softly on this

:28:45.:28:53.

screen. -- on this green. Trying to get it to come down softly, and he

:28:54.:28:58.

has. Couldn't have pitched that into a better spot to kill it. He will

:28:59.:29:03.

have an eagle chance to get back into it. Standing a little bit below

:29:04.:29:09.

the ball, Scott Hend. It might move a little bit to the left in the EF.

:29:10.:29:13.

Very good now. -- in the air. Wonderful shot from Scott Hend. Jaco

:29:14.:29:30.

Van Zyl with a yawning bunker just short of the flag. He saw his

:29:31.:29:34.

playing partner hit a very good shot into here, YE Yang. Elegant swing, a

:29:35.:29:48.

cry of, the good! -- be good. Landing softly. Just hanging on. On

:29:49.:29:54.

the very edge of the fringe of the green. It will break hard to his

:29:55.:30:00.

right. The clubface is open, just stab it forward. Too difficult. It

:30:01.:30:09.

better sit down, it could go and go. Stay on the tier, just about manages

:30:10.:30:11.

to. Danny Willett and Scott Hend tied at

:30:12.:30:22.

9-under par. Tyrell Hatton right into things with his 66. Kaymer

:30:23.:30:28.

hanging in. YE Yang has a chance to get into things.

:30:29.:30:34.

The train arrives just at the wrong time. That is slipping away from

:30:35.:30:45.

him. Bogey on the ninth, bogey on the 10th, bogey on the 11th. It can

:30:46.:30:49.

easily happen around here, but Danny Willett back to 8-under par, one

:30:50.:30:53.

behind his playing partner, this man. Hend with a chance to finally

:30:54.:31:03.

extend his lead. Hend has a two shot lead.

:31:04.:31:07.

The 12th, and Jaco van Zyl for an eagle. It would take him to 8-under,

:31:08.:31:18.

within a couple. Up the slope. Oh! Not quite. He makes his birdie

:31:19.:31:25.

there. 7-under par. It's been an up and down day, but hanging right in

:31:26.:31:27.

there. So, YE Yang. Lori 's second shot

:31:28.:31:53.

into the 12th, this for a three. A chance to get in 9-under. --

:31:54.:31:58.

glorious second shot. Not convincing, but it is a two putt

:31:59.:32:05.

birdie, gratefully received and it takes him to 9-under. Alongside

:32:06.:32:19.

Hatton and will -- Danny Willett. Suddenly things are comfortable.

:32:20.:32:25.

And. Tyrrell Hatton with a marvellous 66 which has catapulted

:32:26.:32:30.

him up the board alongside YE Yang and Willett. They are getting in

:32:31.:32:36.

contention as well ahead of the final day. Lee Westwood, one to

:32:37.:32:44.

play. The 18th, Lee Westwood's second, to the par-5. Water left,

:32:45.:32:54.

bunkers right. Narrow putting surface. Pretty good but he's left

:32:55.:32:57.

himself a little tricky one across the edge of the bunker, but on dry.

:32:58.:33:07.

-- but on dry land. Danny Willett, a 3-wood off the tee but he gave it a

:33:08.:33:14.

good nudge and he has left himself a four iron. You can just see the pin

:33:15.:33:21.

just above the shaft of his club, there. Left-hand side of the green.

:33:22.:33:31.

Popped up on him and down into the front right bunker.

:33:32.:33:43.

A massive drive just leaves Scott Hend a mid iron. But the wind just

:33:44.:33:49.

becoming problematical. Oh! OK. Had a soft bounce. That is

:33:50.:34:05.

out of bounds, it's OK. He doesn't know it but it is.

:34:06.:34:10.

Lovely car for a hole-in-one. Going right! Right! Dark, everyone! My

:34:11.:34:23.

goodness. I hope that wasn't on someone's head. Catch! It is still

:34:24.:34:33.

bouncing! Well, here we go! Someone is going to stop it... The marshals

:34:34.:34:37.

after it. Westwood, little pitch to here and

:34:38.:34:47.

in it goes. Lee Westwood finishes birdie, birdie. So often can be done

:34:48.:34:57.

here at Wentworth, 68, not a blemish on the card, 7-under par and right

:34:58.:35:06.

in there. So, Hend the leader. Two clear at the moment. A birdie putt

:35:07.:35:14.

but down in two will do. Judged that very nicely. Can YE Yang make his

:35:15.:35:29.

par? What a great four, having found trouble off the tee. He stays at

:35:30.:35:34.

8-under. Fabulous finish to this course, with the five is offering

:35:35.:35:44.

something. After a bit of help from his caddy, Smarty, looks to be

:35:45.:35:49.

aiming on the left edge. The line of his ball pointing in that direction.

:35:50.:35:54.

It certainly does turn a bit to the right. No. Pushed it, or didn't

:35:55.:36:09.

allow enough. Well, a par. A good tee shot.

:36:10.:36:24.

He likes this little rescue, Mr Yang. My goodness me. Good luck with

:36:25.:36:42.

that one! He has a good line, looks to have a backswing, but trying to

:36:43.:36:48.

avoid that left-hand fairway bunker. Pop it out into position. I mean,

:36:49.:36:58.

that was square on middle stump. The sound it made there. The leader is

:36:59.:37:12.

in bother, Peter. Well, when you hit a tree three in front of you, it

:37:13.:37:23.

seems a bit silly. You should be in the ditch... No, you're all right.

:37:24.:37:31.

Danny Willett, shot off the back of the bunker. It has done all right

:37:32.:37:35.

for him and a good line to come into this 13th. Good strike... Someone

:37:36.:37:48.

like it, but I'm not sure Danny did. That is fine. Good for distance. A

:37:49.:37:54.

lot of change happening here on the 13th. Yang from the back of the

:37:55.:38:02.

14th. You talk about delicate shots. This could be very good. Well, you

:38:03.:38:12.

couldn't do it much better than that without going in the hole. That was

:38:13.:38:20.

a classic little dab. He leads by two, but he has played three already

:38:21.:38:29.

here. Scott Hend, 112 to the flag. Can he salvage the situation? He

:38:30.:38:39.

certainly can. Damage limitation of the highest order from Scott Hend.

:38:40.:38:47.

Playing hard to get, this is. She's not at all interested in the golf,

:38:48.:38:58.

or him! Willett for a birdie at the 13th. A little bit of swing on this.

:38:59.:39:07.

Struck it well. Just fell away at the end. Stop the rot.

:39:08.:39:28.

This putt of Hend's, for a very adventurous five. What a journey

:39:29.:39:35.

with only a drop shot. Well, Hend still leads but only by

:39:36.:39:53.

one now after salvaging that birdie on the 13th. Tyrrell Hatton is

:39:54.:39:57.

looking better and better. Lee Westwood, birdies to finish on the

:39:58.:40:02.

17th and 18th for his 68. 7-under par and talking to Hazel. A 23rd

:40:03.:40:07.

straight appearance in this Championship. I know you're very

:40:08.:40:10.

proud of that. What does that do for your chances tomorrow at the bogey

:40:11.:40:16.

free 68? Well, it gives me a better chance than I had. I was pleased I

:40:17.:40:21.

did not make any bogeys, making mistakes. I didn't really hole a

:40:22.:40:28.

putt over four feet, so to shoot 68 shows the quality of my tee to

:40:29.:40:30.

green. You see what is on offer for a

:40:31.:40:40.

hole-in-one. He could actually do it today. This is the last group that

:40:41.:40:43.

could do it today with this pin position. If it feeds down and get

:40:44.:40:48.

just -- gets just the right distance. You don't want to be too

:40:49.:40:53.

far beyond the hole, though. Go back, go back, go back. So close to

:40:54.:41:00.

being all the way back down there. That is fast, fast, fast on that

:41:01.:41:07.

slope. Well, they will be wondering why there is little applause as Hend

:41:08.:41:20.

tees up. Hend's tee shot on the way. Willett towards the back of the

:41:21.:41:28.

green. Hend will drift away but on the same level... Not too bad. That

:41:29.:41:35.

was a cracking tee shot from YE Yang down the 15th again with a little

:41:36.:41:37.

rescue club. And that is just a necky, squirt E,

:41:38.:41:53.

nasty, unpleasantness, horrible, awful by by -- goodbye. Hend has to

:41:54.:42:06.

get the speed right. The wider you go, the slower you have to go. Just

:42:07.:42:10.

fell away at the death. Not bad. YE Yang, after that second shot at

:42:11.:42:33.

the 15th. Just looking to get it to roll out down the slope. Looks like

:42:34.:42:39.

he's going to slip away from that group at 8-under. A lot of players

:42:40.:42:45.

coming back into contention. Willett's putt here is a tricky one.

:42:46.:42:50.

Way out to the left and quite a lot of change in elevation from the high

:42:51.:42:56.

ground to the top of the ridge. It should turn, gathering speed. Not

:42:57.:43:03.

bad, four feet by. You can't really have a stab at it and end up going

:43:04.:43:11.

way past. YE Yang to save par at the 15th. They really are struggling at

:43:12.:43:21.

the moment, the leaders. So, he will slip back to 7-under. Hend and

:43:22.:43:30.

Willett 3-over for the round. They are all having their troubles. Qaim

:43:31.:43:37.

to finish out. In for a birdie. It is a good round but it could have

:43:38.:43:41.

been so much better. That double on the 11th. Still, 6-under and right

:43:42.:43:53.

in there. Hend for a bogey now. This is his herd putt. Rattled in a great

:43:54.:44:02.

pace. We knew it was a tricky stroke, cost him a shot. Now,

:44:03.:44:11.

Willett with one of those. Well done.

:44:12.:44:21.

A good four, four and a bit feet. A bit of pace at the right edge and in

:44:22.:44:41.

she goes. Drops back to minus six. In very Scott Hend like fashion,

:44:42.:44:48.

Scott Hend has crushed his tee shot down here. Just a short iron in.

:44:49.:44:55.

Just slipping away over the last few holes. That is a very loose shot

:44:56.:45:08.

with that club in his hand. Well, it doesn't look more than a 7-iron.

:45:09.:45:15.

Square club, must be more than a seven, I think. To miss the Law as

:45:16.:45:21.

badly as that, it is not that all good really. Hend for a four coming

:45:22.:45:27.

up the hill. Quite a slow putt. Another shot dropped, after a

:45:28.:45:44.

beautiful tee shot. Now, Willett at the 15th, left-to-right. Depending

:45:45.:45:49.

on the speed, this must have at least two feet of borrow. If he hits

:45:50.:45:57.

it too hard, it will go whizzing by. No, not high enough. Not quite high

:45:58.:46:09.

enough, never high enough. Do you think he talks in his sleep as well?

:46:10.:46:18.

Jaco van Zyl at the 16th for a birdie, after that excellent result.

:46:19.:46:26.

Oh! Well, he never looked comfortable with that. You can't

:46:27.:46:34.

afford to drop shots like that after a fine result. Danny Willett's third

:46:35.:46:48.

to the 16th. If he gets it right it is like going down the plug hole of

:46:49.:46:52.

a sink, but you've got to get it into the sink first. -- to the sink.

:46:53.:47:00.

It will go past, has he got any spin on it? No! That's not fair! The

:47:01.:47:19.

18th. Two under. Big drive. Not much of a target, though, Kent, is it,

:47:20.:47:25.

this 18th? Looks tiny from there. That's a cracking shot, could go in!

:47:26.:47:30.

Look where he is aiming this, Peter. Eight feet to the right. I hope he's

:47:31.:47:42.

got the line. Well, a very, very good effort indeed. That was a

:47:43.:47:54.

splendid go. At the 18th, this four a three. Very much in the picture.

:47:55.:48:11.

Another stroke going. In that group at 7-under par, Tyrrell Hatton, who

:48:12.:48:30.

was out early, now outright leader. STUDIO

:48:31.:48:35.

What a curious old day. The three leaders have all gone backwards and

:48:36.:48:39.

instead it is the young man from Marlow, not 30 minutes from this

:48:40.:48:43.

beautiful venue, Tyrrell Hatton, who holds the outright lead after that

:48:44.:48:47.

wonderful round of 66 today. One shot ahead of Westwood, Yang,

:48:48.:48:54.

Willett and Hend. COMMENTATOR: There is our camera

:48:55.:48:58.

behind the green, right beneath the umbrella tree. Leaves a straight

:48:59.:49:05.

shot. Not a lot of room to get in and anything left leaves a horrible

:49:06.:49:12.

pitch to the flag. Hello! I don't know what happened there, that could

:49:13.:49:16.

be in the ladies locker room! Yang with the longer of the tee

:49:17.:49:37.

shots, but he has still got the longest shot. Miles Wright, be

:49:38.:49:52.

lucky. My goodness. A big swing, will it be one of those Mickelson

:49:53.:49:55.

specials? Maybe. Now, Mr Yang. He's going to float

:49:56.:50:23.

this up and land it as softly as he can. Virtually impossible to get

:50:24.:50:40.

that by the hole. This would be a get out of jail free card. Pushed

:50:41.:50:46.

it. Most people have missed on the right. Oh dear. After such a

:50:47.:51:01.

promising start, 1-under after eight holes, he is 4-over par for his

:51:02.:51:07.

round. Let's see if Yang can bring some brightness to proceedings.

:51:08.:51:17.

Birdie putt on the last, to much. -- too much. Only one player was

:51:18.:51:24.

struggling in the last few groups out today, Martin Kaymer, who had

:51:25.:51:29.

his own problems. Now YE Yang is in with a 75. A lot of 75th out there

:51:30.:51:38.

in the final few groups. Perhaps that is about par. What do you think

:51:39.:51:41.

he is hitting from here, Ken? A five? A five or a six, not a very

:51:42.:51:49.

long shaft, is it? He's got the length of the green to come up, as

:51:50.:51:52.

long as it is straight it will be OK. I only just, but that could be

:51:53.:51:57.

all right. More than all right! A bit of good fortune, good result.

:51:58.:52:01.

Great result. Lucky. He can't afford any mistakes here.

:52:02.:52:12.

We can't see the ball, nestling down. He's got a lofted club, going

:52:13.:52:17.

to hit it hard over the water and stop it before the bunker at the

:52:18.:52:20.

back of the green. This is no pushover. He thumped it. Stop, stop,

:52:21.:52:30.

he cries. That sailed over everything. It has been a struggle.

:52:31.:52:42.

APPLAUSE How's that for a scene? How is that

:52:43.:52:57.

for a scene? Hospitality full. The Masters champion being welcomed by

:52:58.:53:00.

his hometown crowd. Wonderful setting.

:53:01.:53:11.

Oh! Played it beautifully. That was a dab hand, just caught the edge

:53:12.:53:21.

which killed it. Just a very good result, absolutely splendid. This is

:53:22.:53:27.

the outright lead, this to get to 9-under. Well done. Terrific second

:53:28.:53:34.

shot, brave tee shot and a lovely iron. His aggression pays off. Round

:53:35.:53:50.

in 73. He leads by one. Although it's a short putt, this is missable

:53:51.:53:55.

if you don't just get the line right or the speed, you can spin out. Just

:53:56.:54:00.

inside the left lip really with a bit of speed. Not too much. Well

:54:01.:54:07.

done. A struggle, but it's over. We live to fight another day.

:54:08.:54:15.

They call Saturday moving day, but it has been moving backwards day for

:54:16.:54:23.

the co-leaders. In fact the co-leaders overnight, Scott Hend

:54:24.:54:28.

still in position but one shot worse than before. Thank goodness from his

:54:29.:54:32.

perspective for that eagle at the last. Danny Willett one of the

:54:33.:54:36.

stories of the day, having been in that overnight lead he shot a 4-over

:54:37.:54:42.

par and he will start in a tie for fourth place the. We had everything

:54:43.:54:45.

under control nicely and then a couple of loose shots, a couple of

:54:46.:54:48.

bad decisions, a couple of missed putts and it quickly slipped away.

:54:49.:54:53.

The same thing as three relatively simple par fives and we played them

:54:54.:54:57.

badly on the back nine, as we have done all week. Yeah, it's

:54:58.:55:04.

disappointing to be there or thereabouts and then to kind of

:55:05.:55:07.

played poorly on the back nine like we did yesterday. Off to the range

:55:08.:55:12.

and see if we can get something going for tomorrow. Scott command

:55:13.:55:16.

that 13th tee had a two shot lead and then the wheels began to come

:55:17.:55:20.

off. That eagle at the last, how much of a rescue act was that for

:55:21.:55:26.

you today? Well, it's nice. 3-under par coming down the last, make a

:55:27.:55:33.

four and it's nice. I wasn't aware of the lead because I didn't look at

:55:34.:55:38.

any leaderboards. I know you have won tournaments all over the world,

:55:39.:55:42.

seven different countries, two on the European Tour in total, but how

:55:43.:55:48.

big is this Championship and how big would it be if it were to happen?

:55:49.:55:53.

Obviously it is a big one but I put it in perspective and treat it like

:55:54.:55:57.

just another tournament. If things happen afterwards, you can think

:55:58.:56:00.

about it retrospectively, but right now it's another golf tournament and

:56:01.:56:05.

I'm just trying to do what I did for a living. Well, that was a moving

:56:06.:56:09.

day with a difference, wasn't it? The leaders moving backwards the

:56:10.:56:13.

field and in Danny Willett's case, right back into the chasing pack.

:56:14.:56:17.

He's been overtaken by fallowing Lishman Lee Westwood, and Tyrrell

:56:18.:56:21.

Hatton. Will have an Englishman in the final pairing on Sunday, but

:56:22.:56:25.

perhaps not the one we had been expecting. On the line today for

:56:26.:56:28.

Tyrrell Hatton and leader Scott Hend and so many others in the chasing

:56:29.:56:33.

pack, one of the richest and most prestigious titles on the European

:56:34.:56:34.

Tour. For three days, Wentworth has been

:56:35.:56:43.

dressed in all its latest spring finery. A chance for players to show

:56:44.:56:48.

off their very best. For much of the tournament, the master himself has

:56:49.:56:53.

been on top. Yet Danny Willett has not been without his problems. On

:56:54.:56:58.

Saturday straying from the beaten path, moving day dropping him down

:56:59.:57:01.

to the chasing pack on 6-under. Going forward was Lee Westwood.

:57:02.:57:07.

While most others were faltering, he, who has come so close to victory

:57:08.:57:13.

here on the past, managed a 4-under par 68. All part of a very strong

:57:14.:57:17.

English challenge. One shot further back was Chris Wood, who also

:57:18.:57:21.

managed a 68. Best placed of all on the home front was the man from just

:57:22.:57:26.

down the road. Surrey's Tyrrell Hatton found the lowest round of the

:57:27.:57:31.

day, a 66, which very nearly found in the lead on his own. But for

:57:32.:57:38.

Australia's Scott Hend. He too had his disagreements with the West

:57:39.:57:41.

Course but once again his power brought him a closing eagle to sit

:57:42.:57:45.

9-under and one shot clear was that the field is lining up behind them,

:57:46.:57:49.

so many now with the chance to claim the title on Sunday at Wentworth.

:57:50.:57:53.

STUDIO Yes, a Saturday moving day with a

:57:54.:57:58.

difference, one in which the leaders were brought back to the field and

:57:59.:58:04.

in Danny Willett's case, back into the chasing pack. But Scott Hend

:58:05.:58:08.

remains at the top and he will be joined in the final pairing by local

:58:09.:58:12.

favourite Tyrrell Hatton. Lee Westwood has also climbed right into

:58:13.:58:17.

the reckoning at at 6-under there is Bristol plus Chris Wood and two

:58:18.:58:21.

major winners, Martin Kaymer Germany, who has really found some

:58:22.:58:25.

game of late, and Danny Willett, who is an settled 76 yesterday saw him

:58:26.:58:30.

scurrying to the range to try and regain some of the four-man

:58:31.:58:35.

composure he showed so beautifully at Augusta two weeks ago. The

:58:36.:58:40.

possibilities are many. Ken Brown shared it all without yesterday. A

:58:41.:58:44.

disconcerting day for the leaders. I wonder what is your view on why

:58:45.:58:48.

Danny Willett in particular seemed so unsettled out there? I don't know

:58:49.:58:51.

if it was particularly Danny Willett but the back nine holes yesterday

:58:52.:58:55.

had some tough pin positions and the greens were getting drier and

:58:56.:58:59.

speedier. He hit a view hooks and lost his timing, lost his way.

:59:00.:59:04.

Everyone struggled a bit on the back nine, especially the leaders. Scott

:59:05.:59:08.

Hend still has the 1-shot lead. What is your view on young Tyrrell

:59:09.:59:13.

Hatton? It's almost like a dream come true because he used to come

:59:14.:59:18.

here has a five-year-old, 60 old, seven-year-old and watch the Gulf

:59:19.:59:21.

and suddenly he has a chance of winning the title, which would be an

:59:22.:59:25.

amazing performance, a big day. Fortunately there is not too much

:59:26.:59:28.

breeze about. I think the greens will be a bit softer, a bit easier.

:59:29.:59:33.

To win the PGA title is a dream country for anyone. Touch a big

:59:34.:59:39.

first prize, ?640,000. For the likes of Lee Westwood and Martin Kaymer,

:59:40.:59:42.

the Ryder Cup could be beckoning with a win here. This week there is

:59:43.:59:46.

such a lot at vague but certainly Ryder Cup points. Any of these

:59:47.:59:50.

players back and finish in the top two would give themselves a huge

:59:51.:59:55.

boost. Other things at stake, you can get a five-year exemption on the

:59:56.:59:59.

Tour. It's a big day to win here and whoever does it will be a deserved

:00:00.:00:04.

winner. Let's check out the early movers on this Sunday. Chertsey's

:00:05.:00:09.

own James Morrison does not have too far to drive home, only about five

:00:10.:00:13.

miles, and he could be doing so in a brand-new motor! He earned one here

:00:14.:00:20.

at the 14th hole. The two-time winner celebrating with Andy

:00:21.:00:24.

Sullivan here. That has already been another ace today come from this

:00:25.:00:29.

man, Rikard Karlberg from Gothenburg. Here he is at the 10th.

:00:30.:00:34.

This is absolutely inspired from B-29 yelled, who has since picked up

:00:35.:00:37.

birdies at three, four, seven and eight. This tee shot, Karl Burke now

:00:38.:00:45.

just two shots off the lead. To England's Chris Wood, who began the

:00:46.:00:51.

day at 6-under. A positive start for the rangy two-time European Tour

:00:52.:00:54.

winner from Bristol. A tap in for the first birdie of the day and what

:00:55.:00:57.

a beautiful shot on the opening hole that was.

:00:58.:01:04.

Frenchman Julien Quesne was also on the move. Forward momentum from many

:01:05.:01:11.

already. But Rikard Karlberg has had most of that. His second to 12 was

:01:12.:01:18.

good enough for last year's Italian Open winner to take another birdie.

:01:19.:01:23.

Astonishingly, 8-under for the Championship, 7-under for his round.

:01:24.:01:27.

One of the top of the leaderboard. The move of the week coming from the

:01:28.:01:33.

Swede. Confirmation of cargo's blistering surge up the rankings,

:01:34.:01:37.

tied with Tyrell Hatton, and in Scott Hend's rear-view mirror.

:01:38.:01:42.

English men Chris Wood and Lee Westwood were in striking distance

:01:43.:01:49.

as well. Masters champion Danny Willett double bogeyed at the 3rd to

:01:50.:01:54.

drop back to 4-under. Fascinating promise in the final round.

:01:55.:02:05.

COMMENTATOR: Oh, dear. Scott Hend, what's he doing at the 1st hole?

:02:06.:02:12.

Standing way above the ball, but perhaps a trifle greedy, back into

:02:13.:02:16.

the sand again. It's a tough enough hole without all these problems.

:02:17.:02:30.

The mistake. Might have been too greedy. -- big mistake. Didn't need

:02:31.:02:45.

any more than 20 yards. Westwood after the bogey at the 1st. Playing

:02:46.:02:51.

partner Yang is back left of the green.

:02:52.:02:57.

Just a 9-iron, perhaps a strong wedge. That's good enough. He will

:02:58.:03:09.

have a lot of support here today, Lee Westwood. A title he desperately

:03:10.:03:10.

wants to win. Just a little tap in for Karlberg,

:03:11.:03:24.

he's 8-under par. If he gets to 11, you never know. But then doubts and

:03:25.:03:29.

fears can creep in. Come on... No. Dropped a shot at the

:03:30.:03:45.

1st. Pars the second. Our leader is playing four, he has

:03:46.:04:03.

called for a ruling, I know not why. Crisp shot. Unlucky. Could well open

:04:04.:04:26.

up with a six. Happy days have not arrived yet. Rikard Karlberg, the

:04:27.:04:36.

car behind him has already been won today by James Morrison with a

:04:37.:04:44.

hole-in-one. I think we heard some Swedish for, "I do not care for that

:04:45.:04:49.

shot". That's a horrible place to be. His pleasant run might be coming

:04:50.:04:53.

to an end. The trials and tribulations of Hend

:04:54.:05:09.

at the 1st. This is for a 1-over par-5. He put down a six. Can we go

:05:10.:05:12.

back ten minutes? Hatton for par at the 1st. Well

:05:13.:05:38.

done. Just you keep plodding on and getting pars, a couple of birdies

:05:39.:05:41.

will stop he will have a happy day. Danny Willett at the 4th.

:05:42.:05:48.

CHEERING It's a silly old game! Worth a smile

:05:49.:06:01.

and a giggle. Six at the last, nine for the two Matt -- two holes. He's

:06:02.:06:13.

the Masters champion, that spar for those two. And a three for Karlberg,

:06:14.:06:24.

that could bring much gold. Martin Kaymer, this strange putt, a big

:06:25.:06:29.

swing on it at the beginning. A 4th hole, this for an eagle three. He's

:06:30.:06:35.

hit that way out but he will miss on the left. No, he's up! It did the

:06:36.:06:42.

shimmy shake, and in it went for eagle to put him right at the top of

:06:43.:06:44.

the leaderboard. Scott Hend, after a six on the

:06:45.:06:52.

first, this is for two. Started with a 1-shot lead. One shot

:06:53.:07:16.

behind now. The challenge coming from the big names now more and more

:07:17.:07:20.

with Martin Kaymer up to 8-under with an eagle on the fourth. He

:07:21.:07:26.

joins Karlberg and Hatton. Chris Wood in the group on 7-under.

:07:27.:07:33.

The tall figure of Chris Wood, setting himself beautifully with the

:07:34.:07:37.

ball. Six foot five. A chance to get up with the leaders

:07:38.:07:50.

if it finds the heart of the green, which it does. That's even leap

:07:51.:07:55.

beyond them. It comes round and round, perhaps moving him to

:07:56.:08:02.

9-under. Now, Karlberg, tied with Kaymer and Hatton. He's got an

:08:03.:08:06.

amazing round going. A pan down to save par here. Easy, easy, no. -- up

:08:07.:08:12.

and down to save par here. Julien Quesne has gone for the full

:08:13.:08:24.

all-white today. Bleeding one out there. The wind is picking up and

:08:25.:08:32.

the flag is coming to life. He has made a good start. Karlberg, if he's

:08:33.:08:37.

going to have a chance of winning, this has got to go in. How about

:08:38.:08:40.

that? Chris Wood for eagle. A big swing

:08:41.:08:54.

left-to-right. Out she goes, round she goes. Yes! Well done.

:08:55.:09:03.

doth thicken. Our leader. Yang is well back. Pitch it short and let it

:09:04.:09:30.

run in. It could be good. A bit will more fire in that and it could have

:09:31.:09:36.

ended up right by the pin. -- a bit more fire. Lots of yellow on the

:09:37.:09:44.

leaderboard today, plenty of eagles. Chris Wood had one at the last to

:09:45.:09:49.

take him to the lead. On the fifth, the pin just over the front left

:09:50.:09:55.

bunker. Just about there. Chris Wood is on fire. Birdie at the 1st, eagle

:09:56.:10:03.

on the fourth, nearly a tap in at five.

:10:04.:10:08.

Westwood had a long look at this. Down the hill, big swing.

:10:09.:10:20.

You wouldn't believe it, would you? Still hasn't borrowed enough. The

:10:21.:10:29.

pace is wonderful. Hello! That's worth at least a Silver Medal. It

:10:30.:10:31.

was brilliant. The chance of two for Chris Wood. He

:10:32.:10:43.

bangs it in. Just the fourth birdie at the 5th hole. Moving to 10-under.

:10:44.:10:53.

Also birdied the fourth, going nicely, leading by two.

:10:54.:11:10.

Why in, similar putt to the one Kaymer had, similar to his playing

:11:11.:11:19.

partner of Westwood. -- YE Yang, similar pot. What a putt.

:11:20.:11:29.

Extraordinary. -- similar putt. Just one behind the leader Chris Wood.

:11:30.:11:33.

This is the kind of scoring we didn't see yesterday afternoon.

:11:34.:11:35.

Wonderful scoring this morning at Wentworth. Karlberg. Third to the

:11:36.:11:42.

short par four 16. 18th green. Andrew Johnston, the

:11:43.:12:03.

current Spanish open champion, winning it recently at Valderrama.

:12:04.:12:11.

The line was good and it has straightened! Where's the beef, the!

:12:12.:12:29.

-- where's the beef, Beef. What a way to finish.

:12:30.:12:32.

awkward little chip up the bank. Nestled down for Karlberg. You

:12:33.:12:54.

expect him to note that one in. -- nudge that one in. That's not too

:12:55.:13:09.

bad. Right-to-left and up the hill for Scott Hend to come for the

:13:10.:13:16.

birdie. Karlberg bogeyed the first and then went on an amazing run.

:13:17.:13:20.

8-under for the intervening holes but he has dropped another shot.

:13:21.:13:26.

Back to 7-under. But he could set a target. Scott Hend made a horrible

:13:27.:13:31.

start but he has steadied things since then. Not too difficult, the

:13:32.:13:36.

putt should have a bit of right-to-left, depends how firmly he

:13:37.:13:42.

hits it. Straight in for birdie. Hend back to 8-under after a double

:13:43.:13:44.

bogey start, 1-under since then. Looking down on Thomas Aiken. Chance

:13:45.:14:02.

for three on the sixth. Right in the middle for the South African. Couple

:14:03.:14:07.

of birdies surrounding a bogey at the 5th. He's alongside Westwood and

:14:08.:14:18.

Karlberg on 7-under. Julien Quesne going on nicely today.

:14:19.:14:33.

How about that, take it away! He will move to 9-under.

:14:34.:14:46.

Great approach from Thomas Aiken, and he makes the most of it. Lovely

:14:47.:14:53.

run there, three birdies in the last four holes. The South African mainly

:14:54.:14:58.

plays on the PGA Tour. Also at 8-under. Chris Wood, good tee shot

:14:59.:15:07.

at seven, down the left. The back right pin position. Right over the

:15:08.:15:18.

flag. Wonderful shot from Chris Wood, who is dialled in today.

:15:19.:15:28.

From off the green, Karlberg. What a run he's had today. Rikard Karlberg

:15:29.:15:40.

can rarely miss today. Bogey at 16 but back contract with a seventh

:15:41.:15:47.

birdie of the day at 17. As well as a hole-in-one at the 2nd. Chris Wood

:15:48.:15:55.

with a beautiful second shot. Left-to-right here. Chance to extend

:15:56.:16:08.

his lead. Yes, eagle, a couple of birdies, 11-under and two shots

:16:09.:16:15.

clear for the tall man. That confirms it, 5-under after his

:16:16.:16:19.

opening seven, in the lead by two at 11-under.

:16:20.:16:25.

Very tight with a lot of golf to be played and the back nine is always

:16:26.:16:30.

tricky. Scott Hend flipping underneath it.

:16:31.:16:40.

Very well done. If you miss on the short side, where the flag is cut

:16:41.:16:45.

these days, the green is so firm and fast it's tricky to get out. Finish

:16:46.:16:53.

it out. Started with a bogey and finishes with par, in between, all

:16:54.:16:59.

the colours of the rainbow. A hole-in-one at the 2nd, seven

:17:00.:17:03.

birdies, 65, joint lowest of the week for Rikard Karlberg. 8-under

:17:04.:17:06.

par, setting the target in the clubhouse. Scott Hend to save his

:17:07.:17:11.

par. It's a messy start to the round for

:17:12.:17:22.

Scott Hend. So much good scoring from other players that he is now

:17:23.:17:29.

2-over for his round, back to seven under.

:17:30.:17:36.

Not bad, doing well. Go on! Well done, I thought it bounced one too

:17:37.:17:43.

many times in the short stuff. I don't believe what's going on

:17:44.:17:59.

here. A ridiculous shot, he's going to hit over everything he can, 300

:18:00.:18:02.

yards to run out of the fairway. Where's it going? Hop, skip and jump

:18:03.:18:10.

and straight into the ditch. That's one of the most stupid shots you

:18:11.:18:11.

will ever see! LAUGHTER Martin Kaymer wasn't sure whether

:18:12.:18:41.

his ball was going out of bounds but it was fine. His second into nine.

:18:42.:18:49.

Over the ditch, hits the tree, stay there. Could have finished a lot

:18:50.:18:52.

worse. Tyrell Hatton at seven. Par putt.

:18:53.:19:11.

Yes... No! Just letting them drift away.

:19:12.:19:17.

Three birdies and an eagle for Chris Wood who leads by a couple at

:19:18.:19:25.

11-under. The man of the moment is the round 65 of Rikard Karlberg, it

:19:26.:19:30.

included a hole-in-one. Congratulations, a 65 with two

:19:31.:19:35.

bogeys and Anna ace on the card. One of the more eventful rounds of your

:19:36.:19:40.

career so far. I was a little tired after Ireland, and this is a tough

:19:41.:19:44.

course that takes a lot out of you. Starting with a bogey, I thought, oh

:19:45.:19:49.

well. But I hit a great shot that went in the hole and I got pumped

:19:50.:19:54.

after that. You ride that wave. Very happy with the round. Unfortunately

:19:55.:19:59.

in the end I had some tough numbers into the pin, between clubs, but I'm

:20:00.:20:07.

really happy about it. Scott Hend for bogey at seven.

:20:08.:20:19.

There's something of the John Daly in this fella, hugely talented, but

:20:20.:20:28.

just does stupid things. It was a bizarre choice of shot at 17.

:20:29.:20:31.

Throwing away handfuls of whatever. Needs a good putt now. This is for

:20:32.:20:50.

bogey at nine for Kaymer. Ugly six on his card at nine. Errant tee

:20:51.:20:58.

shot, got greedy. Out in level par 35. One eagle, one double bogey.

:20:59.:21:06.

Five behind now, 6-under. Good tee shot but quite a long way back for

:21:07.:21:08.

Chris Wood. Superb iron, sweetly struck. Working

:21:09.:21:31.

off the slope. High quality shot. He's had a few of those this

:21:32.:21:33.

morning. Looking anxious, it's got the pace

:21:34.:21:46.

on it. At last, a birdie on the card, the first red figure. 8-under,

:21:47.:21:50.

back to where he started. Thomas Aiken was just off the green

:21:51.:22:02.

on the other side and played a dreadful shot through the green.

:22:03.:22:05.

He's making a complete mess of this hole. Our Championship leader, Chris

:22:06.:22:13.

Wood at the 9th. This to go to 12-under. Easy PC. -- easy peasy.

:22:14.:22:30.

What is he playing off today? I don't know, but were losing. If

:22:31.:22:37.

Thomas Aiken is going to win this, I think he needs to hole this. Oh

:22:38.:22:48.

dear. Ugly and untimely double bogey, dropping back to 6-under. YE

:22:49.:23:00.

Yang for three at nine. That was always wide, just too wide. Four is

:23:01.:23:13.

always acceptable. Chris Wood's tee shot at ten. It sounded fluffy but

:23:14.:23:20.

he might get away with it because the greens are so fast. He has got

:23:21.:23:23.

away with it, that was a That was a chance, oh my word. He's

:23:24.:23:52.

going to have to do something very impressive on the back nine. It's

:23:53.:23:55.

just getting away from Westwood now. Chris Woods to save par, leading by

:23:56.:24:07.

three at the moment. The first blemish on the card for Chris Wood

:24:08.:24:12.

today. Out in 29, remarkable front nine. Danny Willett did that earlier

:24:13.:24:17.

in the week as well. But that will be shot. At least one, still not

:24:18.:24:21.

dead yet. It wasn't a dreadful tee shot at ten

:24:22.:24:33.

for Chris Wood, but just a slight misjudgement of distance. His first

:24:34.:24:40.

bogey of the day. His lead is down to two.

:24:41.:24:47.

I don't know what's happening, whether it's the lateness of the

:24:48.:24:58.

hour. That's a dreadful shot. Good look at the face for Tyrell

:24:59.:25:19.

Hatton, a bank to go over here. Hmm... Grappling for his par here.

:25:20.:25:30.

After all the early good scoring, they are just beginning to falter.

:25:31.:25:37.

Chris Wood dropping his first of the day, still two clear. Yang in bother

:25:38.:25:39.

at ten. Tyrell Hatton was in the sand on the

:25:40.:25:58.

ninth of the tee. Came out just short of the green, pitched to hear,

:25:59.:26:04.

and I thought he had that. Grumping and growling and sinking to the

:26:05.:26:11.

knees. Not much happening today, but Danny Willett, he sinks one. He is

:26:12.:26:18.

up finally. Double bogey at the 4th, eagle at the 5th and nothing since

:26:19.:26:22.

then until now. Four behind. Julien Quesne on the edge of the bunker.

:26:23.:26:27.

Awkward shot, hoping to find the green. Bit of a tangled lie.

:26:28.:26:36.

That was extraordinary. I don't know if it was up against a stone,

:26:37.:26:41.

Rupert, Bush, I don't know what happened there. -- stone,

:26:42.:26:54.

Chris Wood from the other side of the fairway. Come back, very good.

:26:55.:27:13.

What a shot. Bogey at ten, and he will bounce straight back here with

:27:14.:27:17.

a birdie. Chris Wood is looking better and better with every passing

:27:18.:27:18.

hole. YE Yang to save par at ten. This is a hit and a prayer. It might

:27:19.:27:50.

hit the flag. Well, would you... It was the only way he could get it

:27:51.:27:52.

close. Yang to drop just one at ten. In it goes, but Yang slips back to

:27:53.:28:09.

8-under, so Chris Wood is leading by three, it might be four in a moment.

:28:10.:28:14.

First dropped shot of the day for the South Korean. It's been an

:28:15.:28:21.

adventure for Julien Quesne at 11. Heather down the left, fluffing it

:28:22.:28:25.

into the bunker, pitched here, hit the flag. All the fun of the fair

:28:26.:28:34.

and this is to drop just one. Which he does, slipping back to seven, but

:28:35.:28:38.

not too damaging. Bearing in mind all that has gone before.

:28:39.:28:47.

Chris Wood, after bogey at ten, birdie at 11, and his lead is now

:28:48.:28:52.

four. Seven holes to play. Yang at 11. I was about to say...

:28:53.:29:11.

Core blimey. There are a few plays in with a shout if they can ever get

:29:12.:29:18.

their game together. -- a few players. A good look at the tee shot

:29:19.:29:23.

at 12 of Chris Wood. A couple of trees, try and find the gap,

:29:24.:29:29.

right-to-left, follow the contours on the tracer. Good luck, everyone.

:29:30.:29:40.

Too much. It dropped down and hit the tree and came up short of the

:29:41.:29:46.

ditch. I think he has been fortunate. Still not pleasant but

:29:47.:29:52.

could have been worse. We can see if Julien Quesne can find the right

:29:53.:29:58.

shape. A huge crowd, funnelling down. It leaks off to the left. A

:29:59.:30:08.

few are applauding generously. It will be OK down there. Not quite

:30:09.:30:12.

reaching the ditch. It's fine but just not pretty.

:30:13.:30:24.

a beautiful shot on the opening hole that was.

:30:25.:30:26.

Tyrrell Hatton has had his problems as well full of it is for a bogey on

:30:27.:30:31.

the 10th. He is, as they say, spending money

:30:32.:30:45.

on this final day. Chris Wood has got a bit of a truncated

:30:46.:30:50.

follow-through. He's just got to pitch it back. Could have been far

:30:51.:30:55.

worse off the tee. Just creeps onto the fairway. Still will be able to

:30:56.:31:08.

get home in three. Yang's third shot. Third at the 11th. I don't

:31:09.:31:15.

know what has got into this chap. He's either so terribly nervous...

:31:16.:31:17.

He's just lost his swing altogether. Third shot the Chris Wood. -- for

:31:18.:31:38.

Chris Wood. Down, down, down, that is the urgent call. There is a

:31:39.:31:45.

little table top in the middle of the green.

:31:46.:31:51.

Yang, his fourth shot at the 11th. It's all gone very messy. Big swing

:31:52.:32:04.

at the end on this one. You are Chris Doak it up the right-hand

:32:05.:32:08.

side, it looks awful and then all of a sudden it goes sharp left-hand end

:32:09.:32:15.

up not too bad. Not too bad. That's a good view of this 12th green. It

:32:16.:32:20.

used to be fairly level with the rest of the fairway and then they

:32:21.:32:31.

built it up. Julien Quesne to play. In two for a birdie. Not good.

:32:32.:32:39.

Here is Qaim up on the 13th. Long par attempt. -- here is Kaymer.

:32:40.:32:51.

Apart from that eagle on the fourth, it has not been good so far for

:32:52.:32:56.

Kaymer. Bogey and double bogey come he moves back to 5-under. Time

:32:57.:33:03.

running out for Kaymer. Chris Wood, having down the trees off the tee.

:33:04.:33:15.

Going to sit down. A bit of work left. Interesting, the course has

:33:16.:33:21.

got three very tough holes to be played, 13, 15 and 16, a lot of

:33:22.:33:29.

bogeys of those. Julien Quesne for his birdie. Chris Wood having a

:33:30.:33:34.

little look from the sidelines to check the break. Sweetly done. Very

:33:35.:33:48.

nice putt. He moves within four at the moment, 8-under par. He's got a

:33:49.:33:57.

little tasty one here. Chris Wood with a four stroke lead. He sort of

:33:58.:34:03.

controls his own destiny. This is to save his par. That is the easiest

:34:04.:34:11.

hole on the course. 38 birdies today. No birdie here for Chris Wood

:34:12.:34:16.

but a par and he maintains his four shot lead.

:34:17.:34:21.

The second shot. A good tee shot for Jaco van Zyl. Seeing where the tee

:34:22.:34:34.

is at the 15th. It is 5-under par. Please be good... Oh! It's very

:34:35.:34:39.

good. So tricky to get to that flag where it is cut today, with that

:34:40.:34:46.

breeze blowing. A par now for Julien Quesne. Just get it out of the sand.

:34:47.:34:49.

-- a par-5. Just 148 yards left for Chris Wood.

:34:50.:35:13.

A stronger of a drive. -- a stonker. Ooh! And unforced errors.

:35:14.:35:20.

Danny Willett, 15. This is for his par. Problems off the tee.

:35:21.:35:34.

Van Zyl for a very scarce birdie at the 15th today. And he's done it!

:35:35.:35:41.

He's earned it, after an excellent approach. 6-under par. 8-under Leeds

:35:42.:35:56.

in the clubhouse. Feet aiming right commission old is a little open. --

:35:57.:36:03.

feet aiming right, shoulders a little open. He's scuffed it a bit

:36:04.:36:08.

come he hit a stone. Something hard under the ball. After a perfect

:36:09.:36:15.

drive, struggling for his par. It's got to be his moment sometime here

:36:16.:36:23.

Andrew. Must be now. He needs this and he needs a couple more. Well,

:36:24.:36:29.

he's looking at the green, but I wouldn't say that was the prettiest

:36:30.:36:34.

of strokes. Julien Quesne now, for his par. He found the bunker off the

:36:35.:36:38.

tee. Down the hill and up the other side.

:36:39.:36:49.

A lot of energy in that one. Can he wriggle out of this 13th with

:36:50.:37:17.

a par? He has, you know! What a putt. Just at the right time. Five

:37:18.:37:25.

holes to come. That was a gem, that was a little beauty. Just what he's

:37:26.:37:32.

after. Now, Julien Quesne, to drop just one shot. He watched his

:37:33.:37:40.

playing partner role in his par putt. Julien Quesne back to 7-under,

:37:41.:37:45.

five behind Chris Wood, now. Second shot of Danny Willett, on the

:37:46.:38:01.

16th. I think that should be quite good!

:38:02.:38:04.

LAUGHTER Let's see, Danny. Well, that's a

:38:05.:38:10.

great shot from there. Really is. Moving it around the edge of the

:38:11.:38:13.

trees. Wood, putting up a severe little

:38:14.:38:32.

tier, here. A little shy. Beautiful putt on the eighth from long range,

:38:33.:38:42.

but a bit of work to do. Don't count Danny out. This is for a birdie at

:38:43.:38:47.

the 16th. They have been in short supply. He's made it. Two par fives

:38:48.:38:50.

to come. He holed one from a similar distance

:38:51.:39:04.

at the last for par, can he do so again? Not over yet by any stretch

:39:05.:39:10.

of the imagination. His lead will go down to three. Rikard Karlberg,

:39:11.:39:15.

after his 65, the man closest to him.

:39:16.:39:23.

Interesting to see the current Ryder Cup standings. Chris Wood currently

:39:24.:39:31.

in 13th place, with nine to play their way in by right for the

:39:32.:39:37.

automatic places. This will really help his automatic chances of

:39:38.:39:42.

getting into town clerk's team, were he to land this huge title. -- into

:39:43.:39:53.

Aaron clerk's team. He has struggled off this tee all week. Can he

:39:54.:40:01.

reached it in two? Gone right. Where is that? Down the path, way down

:40:02.:40:08.

there. I've never seen anyone go down there, Peter. That is on its

:40:09.:40:12.

way to the eighth hole. On its way to the 18th tee. Doubtful now but he

:40:13.:40:22.

could have set a good target. A frustrating day on the greens it has

:40:23.:40:29.

been fully west. This is for a par. -- on the greens it has been, for

:40:30.:40:31.

Lee Westwood. APPLAUSE

:40:32.:40:42.

One or two if the parts but a view very good ones that haven't found

:40:43.:40:47.

the bottom of the cup. -- iffy putts. Coming out of the rough.

:40:48.:40:52.

Chris Wood, doesn't want to miss right.

:40:53.:40:58.

Nicely played. Very nicely done. A conservative positional shot, just

:40:59.:41:10.

what he needed. Well, Willett is down in the jungle there now. If

:41:11.:41:17.

he's got a clear shot and a decent lie, it's possible he could get it

:41:18.:41:22.

somewhere... Well, that will go all the way back down the bottom. Well,

:41:23.:41:26.

what a week he's had. Wattel, it is quick down the hill.

:41:27.:41:46.

Is it that quick? Giving it his best. Just a fraction more. He was

:41:47.:41:49.

in the hunt last week in Ireland. Hello! A bit of a misread. He

:41:50.:42:08.

thought it was going to turn the other way. Come on, Danny. Let's

:42:09.:42:15.

have a bit of magic. Going with the putter out of the hollow on the

:42:16.:42:20.

17th. It's a big ask, he knows he needs something. Oh my. Ooh matron.

:42:21.:42:34.

After the 18th, Romain Wattel. He pops one in. Not too bad. That will

:42:35.:42:51.

be a nice week's pocket money. 15 holes played for Chris Wood. He's

:42:52.:42:56.

11-under par. 5-under on his round. He leads by three. Westwood, after

:42:57.:43:05.

that splendid second at the 15th. Just up the left-hand side. He's

:43:06.:43:08.

overdone it... Now, Chris Wood with this ghastly,

:43:09.:43:28.

difficult, horrible one. Well, he tried to play a little, I don't

:43:29.:43:36.

know, a little jigger up the left. Tried to play a bit of Seve magic

:43:37.:43:43.

but wasn't quite up to it. Danny Willett, second shot. Having a cut

:43:44.:43:48.

at the green. Not a very big target. Drifting away. Straight in the sand.

:43:49.:43:59.

And look where the flag is, right at the back left.

:44:00.:44:05.

Chris Wood long putt for a par. It swing from the left. I don't know

:44:06.:44:15.

whether as much as much as that... No, it's coming late. Still a bit to

:44:16.:44:23.

do. Hang on, hang on. Well, I heard Danny Willett say after his second

:44:24.:44:31.

shot, "How can you get round this golf course with a swing like that?"

:44:32.:44:39.

He went to chase this one out of the slope. That's pretty good from

:44:40.:44:45.

there. Just under a yard. APPLAUSE

:44:46.:44:52.

Always in the bag. Damage limitation, just the one stroke

:44:53.:44:55.

gained. Danny Willett, then, to try to

:44:56.:45:10.

finish with a four here. Yes! He has it at the very last, Danny Willett.

:45:11.:45:17.

Too many wayward shots. APPLAUSE

:45:18.:45:21.

Very important shot, that he gets it somewhere in play. Five here would

:45:22.:45:33.

be OK. That is a cracking drive. Write down the middle. Splits the

:45:34.:45:44.

fairway. Well, after that 71, Danny Willett wine since elfin first spot.

:45:45.:45:50.

He's with Hazel. Danny, as we speak, third place. Another top five finish

:45:51.:45:55.

for you. We know you had a lead at one stage in this Championship. With

:45:56.:45:59.

hindsight, how will you reflect on your endeavours? I hit too many bad

:46:00.:46:03.

shots but plenty of good ones, plenty of birdies. Just the ones I

:46:04.:46:07.

hit bad this week seemed to be a bit more destructive than usual. That's

:46:08.:46:11.

just this golf course. You've not got to be 1 million miles off and it

:46:12.:46:15.

can jump up and bite you. It all seemed to happen really quickly. The

:46:16.:46:20.

two days, I had a bit of a blip for 45 minutes and that is four shots on

:46:21.:46:27.

each day and it's hard to make up four shots around this golf course.

:46:28.:46:30.

You take some of those away and it could have been another good week.

:46:31.:46:34.

COMMENTATOR: This is Chris Wood, our leader, his third shot. Just missed

:46:35.:46:40.

the fairway on the right. Played up to here. This is not easy, it's in

:46:41.:46:47.

the hollow in front of the green and then pitch it in. That was played

:46:48.:46:54.

with far too much loft on that, I fancy. Pitched it straight in the

:46:55.:47:02.

face. Look at the 18th, Kaymer's second shot.

:47:03.:47:07.

He joins the group who will be thinking what might have been. It

:47:08.:47:17.

should come down the hill a bit. Certainly safety first, but not easy

:47:18.:47:31.

to judge because you come out of a steep bank. Over the other side it's

:47:32.:47:39.

pretty quick. Within a yard would be a beauty.

:47:40.:47:43.

Well, well, well. Two shots, his lead.

:47:44.:47:53.

Well, that was... Even when the golf suddenly becomes scrappy and nervy

:47:54.:48:14.

and edgy, it is still exciting. You feel this has to go. Has he done it?

:48:15.:48:22.

No he hasn't come yet he has! Oh boy oh boy oh boy, what a time to drop a

:48:23.:48:26.

shot. Three shots gone in his last four

:48:27.:48:40.

holes. One Dub Lake 1-shot lead. -- one to play, one shot lead. Kaymer,

:48:41.:48:54.

for an eagle. Left, left, just left. Not quite his day-to-day, Martin

:48:55.:49:04.

Kaymer. A closing birdie. An eagle on the fourth, a double bogey on the

:49:05.:49:10.

ninth. One birdie to finish with a 73. Still a top ten finish but he

:49:11.:49:13.

would have been hoping for so much more. Well, he knows a par is good

:49:14.:49:21.

enough if he is aware of the leaderboard, and I'm sure he is.

:49:22.:49:25.

Sensible off the tee. Must find the fairway.

:49:26.:49:32.

Somebody likes it. And that's the reason why. The thing is now, will

:49:33.:49:44.

he go for the green or they are and pitch it in for two putts. Rikard

:49:45.:49:55.

Karlberg hoping for the best, keeping warm.

:49:56.:50:01.

Probably an eight or 9-iron, no more. Keep it great. Yes he has.

:50:02.:50:10.

He's quite a way back. Watch the spin. We've seen it done before.

:50:11.:50:18.

Back it comes, into the water. Job done. Well, he is keeping warm,

:50:19.:50:28.

Rikard Karlberg. But Chris Wood is doing what he has to do, plotting

:50:29.:50:33.

his way down the 18th. Here we go, Wood's dirt shot. Three from here to

:50:34.:50:44.

win. Got to get over the water. Is it, is it? Will it spin? Yes, it

:50:45.:50:49.

does. Pretty good shape. Exactly where he was aiming as well, safe

:50:50.:50:54.

and secure, 20 feet wide of the flag, job nearly done. At the moment

:50:55.:51:00.

he's heading for the biggest win of his career, the biggest cheque of

:51:01.:51:03.

his career. The man who left onto the scene as a youngster, back in

:51:04.:51:12.

Oakdale at -- Birkdale at The Open. Two putts for his biggest victory on

:51:13.:51:20.

the European Tour and one of the biggest winds -- at one of the

:51:21.:51:29.

biggest tournaments. Two putts, for victory. Looks good. Ooh... I think

:51:30.:51:39.

that will be OK. It's about 20 inches.

:51:40.:51:50.

Chance to finish with a birdie. Chance to tie Danny Willett in third

:51:51.:52:10.

place. It just bobbled with about three feet to go. It just took a

:52:11.:52:15.

bobble and stayed on that line. Still a good finish. Fourth place,

:52:16.:52:21.

6-under par. The man has missed his last two cuts. A great finish for a

:52:22.:52:32.

level par round of 72. A wonderful setting, huge crowd looking on.

:52:33.:52:39.

Little tiddler to win the pot! Well done. Well done, Chris Wood, BMW PGA

:52:40.:52:45.

champion 2016. Great love. -- great stuff. Great victory by

:52:46.:52:58.

Chris Wood. They will be celebrating on the Clifton suspension Bridge

:52:59.:53:04.

tonight. A great victory, strained at times but well done.

:53:05.:53:10.

And our congratulations to Chris Wood. He has come so far here over

:53:11.:53:16.

the years. We remember on his debut in 2010, he was tied for sixth

:53:17.:53:23.

place. He has landed the big one, the biggest title of his career so

:53:24.:53:27.

far, is third European Tour win and in some nervy fashion at the end,

:53:28.:53:34.

but he your champion. And as Chris Wood, our champion, towers over me,

:53:35.:53:39.

time to give out the prizes today, in the company of the chief

:53:40.:53:42.

executive of the European Tour and Doctor Ian Robinson from BMW, lovely

:53:43.:53:47.

to see you. Great week and a great winner. I gave it to Chris last year

:53:48.:53:56.

and again this year. It's a really special event and a great fight at

:53:57.:54:01.

the end. It is what you deserve. Hand it over, thank you, Ian. Our

:54:02.:54:04.

champion is crowned! CHEERING

:54:05.:54:10.

Well, Chris, we remember your debut year six years ago and you've waited

:54:11.:54:14.

some time to get your hands on this. This is your third European Tour

:54:15.:54:18.

title but I suspect it could be your greatest day in golf, yeah? Yes, the

:54:19.:54:23.

strength of the field every year in the BMW PGA is just so strong. To

:54:24.:54:29.

win a tournament like this takes a lot of very good golf. And on such a

:54:30.:54:34.

great golf course... I have to thank BMW, they put on some of the best

:54:35.:54:37.

events for us players. I've always wanted to win one. I love my BMWs!

:54:38.:54:48.

Yeah, this is a massive win for me. It was a fantastic start to you,

:54:49.:54:52.

covering the front nine in 29. A four shot lead with only five holes

:54:53.:54:58.

to go, but one to play with coming down the 18th, I wonder how nerve

:54:59.:55:00.

wracking those closing holes were for you? There you! It's not an easy

:55:01.:55:08.

course to finish on. -- very! You've got to hit some really solid shots

:55:09.:55:12.

coming in from 13 onwards really. There's potential trouble

:55:13.:55:17.

everywhere. And when you're leading, it seems to make it ten times

:55:18.:55:23.

harder. But it doesn't matter how many you win by, if you're one ahead

:55:24.:55:28.

or ten ahead, I've still got my hands on this. So many positives do

:55:29.:55:33.

this title and one of them for you could be a leapfrogging up the Ryder

:55:34.:55:37.

Cup rankings. How positive a day has it been for you in that regard?

:55:38.:55:42.

Yeah, obviously it's a target of mine. I made a great start in the

:55:43.:55:46.

rankings last season. I've had a so-so year up to here and been there

:55:47.:55:51.

or thereabouts, but this is obviously going to go a long way to

:55:52.:55:57.

helping me push towards sneaking in the team, really. I need to start

:55:58.:56:01.

focusing on putting in some more good finishes to try and cement my

:56:02.:56:08.

place and not rely on Mr Clarke picking me! Well, I'm sure if more

:56:09.:56:16.

performances like this come your way he will be picking you. Imagination

:56:17.:56:18.

is once again. -- congratulations once again.

:56:19.:56:30.

Thanks, Hazel. Let's round up some of the other leading contenders for

:56:31.:56:33.

you. Lee Westwood birdied the last for a 3-under par finish for the

:56:34.:56:39.

Championship but closed out today with a disappointing 76. Other

:56:40.:56:46.

chances for the we hope. YE Yang finishing with a 75. Tyrrell Hatton

:56:47.:56:55.

out of the final group. A 75 for him today and a tie for seventh place

:56:56.:56:59.

for the local. Overnight leader Scott Hend, a truly terrible round

:57:00.:57:03.

from the Australian, a round of 78 and a share of 15th place, like

:57:04.:57:09.

Westwood. Chris Wood, this is his final putt, this is the kind of

:57:10.:57:13.

distance you like to have to close out a big win, isn't it? A round of

:57:14.:57:19.

69 to take the victory. Out in 29, home in 40 but he hung on. A 1-shot

:57:20.:57:26.

victory over Rikard Karlberg, who really did brighten everybody's day

:57:27.:57:30.

with that scintillating round of 65. Danny Willett steadied the ship

:57:31.:57:34.

today with a round of 71 for outright third place. A 3-way tie

:57:35.:57:41.

for fourth place. Andrew Johnston, a round of 67 with an eagle at the

:57:42.:57:45.

last, giving everyone a lock to smile about. He's in a group with a

:57:46.:57:49.

tie for seventh place. A bit further down, the name of Lee Westwood in

:57:50.:57:54.

that chair of 15th place after that round of 76. We will doubtless see

:57:55.:57:58.

much more of Chris Wood over the coming months in what is going to be

:57:59.:58:02.

a very significant summer of sport on the BBC. Highlights of the

:58:03.:58:07.

Scottish Open and The Open from Troon, live coverage of the Rio

:58:08.:58:10.

Olympics and before all of that in less than a fortnight, the European

:58:11.:58:14.

football Championships. On that subject, I hope you will be watching

:58:15.:58:16.

this on Wednesday night. But tonight we salute a home win

:58:17.:58:25.

here at the Wentworth Club. Chris Wood naturally stands tall in the

:58:26.:58:29.

world of golf, but tonight he stands head and shoulders above everyone

:58:30.:58:31.

else. Goodbye.

:58:32.:58:35.
