MARTIN KAYMER IS on course for victory at The Players Championship at Sawgrass as he leads Jim Furyk heading down the stretch. The German — 15-under after 13 holes — should confirm a place in his second Ryder Cup if he can finish steadily and clinch a competition often referred to as ‘the fifth Major’.
It has been a good day for Kaymer’s teammate from the 2012 Ryder Cup, Rory McIlroy. The Northern Irishman recorded a closing round of 66 to finish on 9-under. Putting was McIlroy’s bug-bear earlier in the competition but he was on top form in his final round.
This superb bunker shot sums up the great day Kaymer is having. It set up a birdie chance, on nine, that he tapped in.
