Nick Bachem - Timeline from winning amateur to DP World Tour champion, When Nick Bachem lifted the trophy at the Jonsson Workwear Open last weekend it was yet another high point in a remarkable rise through the golfing ranks.

Viktor Hovland’s display at the BMW International Open today showed emphatically why he has been tipped for a glittering career. Norway’s popular rising star, the current number 14 in the world rankings, climbed into a share for second place, courtesy of a round that included eight birdies and three bogeys. Two-time major winner Martin Kaymer also worked his way up the leaderboard and is still very much in contention.
