Tom Lewis, born on 5th January 1991, is a professional golfer from Welwyn Garden City, Hertfordshire, England.
Lewis started his golfing career as an amateur and in 2009 he won the Boys Amateur Championship at Royal St George’s. At the New South Wales Open in 2010 he lost to Peter O’Malley in a playoff and later that year finished a tied 12th place at the Australian Open. In 2011 he earned another victory on the Old Course at St Andrews in the 2011 St Andrews Links Trophy.
Tom Lewis qualified for the 2011 Open Championship at Royal St George’s via Local Final Qualifying at Rye. In the first round he shot a five-under-par 65, giving him a share of the lead alongside Thomas Bjørn. This was the lowest single-round score by an amateur in Open Championship history, and the equal lowest in any major championship. It made him the first amateur to lead a major after a round since Mike Reid in the 1976 U.S. Open and the first amateur to lead the Open Championship since Michael Bonallack in 1968. One of Lewis’s first-round partners was Tom Watson, after whom he is named. Lewis finished tied for 30th place and as the low amateur, he won the Silver Medal.
Lewis turned professional after the 2011 Walker Cup. He made his professional debut at the Austrian Golf Open in September 2011, shooting a two-over-par 74 in the first round. He recovered to finish in a tie for tenth.
Tom Lewis won his maiden professional tournament at the Portugal Masters on the European Tour in October 2011, shooting rounds of 70, 64, 68, and 65 to finish two shots clear of the field. It was his third professional start. In December 2011 he was crowned the European Tour’s Sir Henry Cotton Rookie of the Year.

It did put a strain on their kinship. But this year, they have put things behind them. They have talked about this matter, and they would both like to renew their relationship.

Recently, Rory Mcilroy won his second title in Kentucky at the golf club known as Valhalla and thus was able to win his 4th major golfing championship. The attractive blonde model- Ashley Bongiovanni has been claiming that she has been the lucky charm that has worked for Mcilroy and his recent successes.
Ashley Bongiovanni had earlier tried to gain Mcilroy’s attention during the WGC Bridgestone tournament that had taken place in Ohio. A video was uploaded on the internet which actually showcased the attempts that Bongiovanni was making in order to make an impact on Mcilroy during the tournament last month.
In the month of May, Rory Mcilroy broke off his relationship with Caroline Wozniacki (tennis player) and just a month after that Ashley Bongiovanni was seen at the tournament trying to impress Mcilroy with her beauty.
The pictures she uploads on Instagram and Twitter are usually very striking and appealing because she is a glamour model.
Since the video of Bongiovanni at the WGC Bridgestone golf tournament went viral on the internet, people thought that her chances would be hampered. But then Mcilroy decided to follow her on Twitter and it seems he does not want to ignore the attention he is getting from this beautiful fan.
In an interview that was taken by Fox News, Ashley Bongiovanni said that Mcilroy and she have been in contact with each other. She is also of the opinion that maybe her presence at the tournament increased his chances of winning the Bridgestone tournament.
Bongiovanni even affirmed that if Mcilroy and she did get into a relationship then that would totally be their personal matter.
There were already rumors this summer, about Rory Mcilroy having romantic links with Irish models namely Sasha Gale and Nadia Forde. However, the rumors have not been affirmed by either Mcilroy or the models.
Upon hearing the term globetrotter, the name of American golfer Jason Dufner is not one that immediately crops up to the mind but according to the one time major winner, getting to travel the world and being able to see different places is something that he is learning to enjoy and cherish.
He stated that travelling the world, as he has started to do recently, and being able to play in different countries as well as a variety of golf courses is something that he hopes will help him become a better professional in the course of time.
He went on to add that if one looks back at some of the greatest names of the of game from the past, the likes of Jack Nicklaus, Gary Player and some others – they all travelled the world, winning titles in many different countries. Jason Dufner added that they are a bit spoiled in the United States of American, considering the schedule they play in as well as the purse they are given but in this way, he gets to see the world.
And according to Dufner, the situation is a win-win for him.
And many would agree with the American without a shadow of a doubt, especially tennis or golf pros. Being able to get out of one’s comfort zone is something that makes a better player of even an ordinary one and Dufner is one of the best talents around at the moment.
Jason Dufner mentioned that he will be looking to play in four to six international tournaments this year before going on to add that he might be stepping out of his comfort zone in this way, but that is something he wants to do and is looking forward to enjoying traveling the world and become a better player.
McConnell Golf is increasing its territory day by day. It already has 10 private clubs and out of those 10 8 of them has facilities in Carolinas. It also has a Reserve Club in Pawleys Island.
LStar Management first hired McConnell to help them operate the Ocean Club and the Members Club au the Grande Dunes. In addition to that they were also handed the Grand Dunes Marina and the Anchor Café that is there on the Intracoastal Waterway. On December 20th LStar bought the Grande Dunes resort from the Burroughs & Chaplin Co.
Out of the 10 courses that McConnell Golf operates, The Members Club is one of the first courses that they do not own. However the contract can be renewed after two years. Both of the parties are seriously concerned about the quality of the course and that is why they have been together for such a long time.
In the recent times there were lot of offers to operate the courses but McConnell was the top priority amongst all the others. In the initial contract 70 per cent of the initiation fees were refundable but only if you resigned. But the fact that the courses were so well maintained made it possible for everyone to stick to McConnell. The continuous impetus to improve the overall service has given everyone a real boost to everyone.
They have walk mowed the greens, painted the cups and the car windshields are washed almost every alternate days. The best part is they have kept a watch on each and every small detail just to keep up to the reputation. Due to all things and because of the quality of service they give McConnell has been able to retain the operations although they have not succeeded in owning any of the courses. But it is a very big scale which they are working on and that should not be minuscule.
