Seamus Power To Make Masters Debut After Match Play ... (Golf Monthly)

It's an amazing achievement for Power, who, only 18 months ago, was ranked outside the world's top-500. Now, he sits inside the world's top-50, has a PGA Tour title under his belt and a future Masters appearance to look forward to.

WGC Match Play: Richard Bland eyeing first Masters invite | Seamus ... (Sky Sports)

Richard Bland is on the verge of securing a Masters debut at the age of 49 after reaching the last 16 of the WGC-Dell Technologies Match Play.

Scheffler's 5 and 4 victory over Fitzpatrick left the pair tied on two points at the top of Group 5. "Things don't quite seem as hard on the golf course. Being two down with two to go and knowing all I needed was a half to move on to the round of 16, that's a real confidence boost to birdie the last two to get through." "I'm going to guess he probably shot four, five under maybe, didn't make a bogey at all. "Me and Lee joked that whoever just finishes probably wins. I hit some really quality shots.

Séamus Power enjoyed the sweetest defeat of his career as he completed his fairytale journey from mini-tour player to Masters competitor in the WGC-Dell ...

“I think my past experiences here, having won in ’19 and having had a chance to win last year, hopefully will stand me in good stead,” McDowell said. The former US Open champion (42) is ranked 359th in the world and with his PGA Tour exemption running out at the end of the season, he’s seeking his second win in Puntacana since 2019 and a new lease of life. It was a better day for Graeme McDowell in the Corales Puntacana Championship in the Dominican Republic, where he birdied four of his last five holes and carded a four-under 68 to share third place in the clubhouse on eight-under, just four shots behind Ben Martin. Shane Lowry needed to beat Brooks Koepka to force a three-way play-off in his group, but while he came back from three down after seven holes to square the match at the 12th, Koepka produced a remarkable pitch and putt birdie at the last to win one up. Now it’s full knockout. The top 50 in the world on Monday are guaranteed Masters invitations, and 48th-ranked Power is set to remain in the top 50 and make his debut alongside Pádraig Harrington, Rory McIlroy and Shane Lowry on April 7.

Waterford native Power lost 2&1 but still qualified from Group 4 as a result of Patrick Cantlay’s 2&1 win over Sungjae Im.

Power seals Masters spot as he makes last 16 in Austin (RTE.ie)

Seamus Power has progressed to the last 6 of the WGC-Dell Technologies Match Play in Austin and guaranteed his place at the Masters in two weeks' time.

"It's just the best tournament to watch on TV and I can only assume it's a million times better to play in it. "But if I could play the tournament, it would be a dream come true. So I've played the course twice. Thomas Pieters was two up with two holes to play against Horschel and seemingly on course to secure the win which would set up a play-off between the pair to decide the winner of group 12. "Things don't quite seem as hard on the golf course. "I've known Lee a long time, he's a legend of the sport and to be able to go head-to-head with him and get one over on him was pretty special."
