Another week and another DP World Tour star was posting a seriously low number on a course close to home.
After playing eight out of a possible nine events in the 2023 season, Dan Bradbury was having a well-deserved week off last week but that did not mean the clubs were staying in the locker.
The Englishman is attached to Wakefield Golf Club but he made the trip 25 miles north to Moortown Golf Club - venue for the first Ryder Cup played on European soil in 1929 - and posted a scintillating 61.

That was one more stroke than Ryan Fox recently needed at Te Arai Links in New Zealand as the professionals continued to prove that, sometimes, there is no place quite like home.
Bradbury is no stranger to going low, as he proved when an opening 63 propelled him to a wire-to-wire victory at this season's Joburg Open, with the sponsor's invite and then World Number 1,397 a winner in just his third Tour start.
Over the weekend in Yorkshire, he opened with a birdie and picked up further shots on the fifth, seventh and ninth to turn in 32.
That gain just before the turn ignited his round and he made another five in a row from the tenth.
His only dropped shot of the day came on the 16th but a birdie-birdie finish saw him come home in 29 and sign for an incredible ten under par total.
