Alfred Dunhill Links Championship Review

The Alfred Dunhill Links Championship is an event like no other. It’s a week where a little bit of fun is injected into the European Tour as each pro is partnered with a celebrity in a team event, which runs alongside the pros individual.

In the latter, it was a man who made a late charge for a wildcard spot in the European’s Ryder Cup team that stole the show. Englishman Tyrrell Hatton equalled the course record at St Andrews on Saturday (62) before closing with a 66 to finish four ahead of the chasing pack. Hatton’s 23-under-par matched the tournament record whilst propelling the 24-year-old into the world’s top 50 for the first time following his maiden victory on the European Tour.

In the team event, it was two men at the centre of much of the Ryder Cup controversy who came out on top. Danny Willett and ‘Smartie’ (Jonathan Smart – Willett’s full-time caddy) finished the four-day event on 38-under-par following their final-day 60, snatching the title by one shot from their closest competitors.
