The PGA Tour returns to familiar grounds for the first event of the 2022-23 season.

The California kid captured the Fortinet Championship in 2021 in a dramatic finish, propelling him into a career year that featured another victory at the Wells Fargo Championship, a top-five finish in the FedEx Cup and a captain's selection for the 2022 Presidents Cup next week at the Quail Hollow Club. Play began Thursday with Justin Lower taking the early lead with a 9-under 63 before play was halted due to darkness.

PGA Tour player reveals SHOCKING comment at Fortinet ... (Golfmagic.com)

Byeong Hun An posted on social media that he heard one particular chant at the Fortinet Championship which let him he know he was back on the PGA Tour...

That moment I knew I was back on the Tour. He won the LECOM Suncoast Classic in February which was his first win on the Korn Ferry Tour. By the sounds of this tweet, this is not the first time that An has been mistaken for eight-time PGA Tour winner Hideki Matsuyama.

Steve Palmer's Fortinet Championship third-round preview, best ... (Racing Post)

Sky Sports Main Event and Golf, 11pm Saturday. Best bets. Byeong Hun An to win Fortinet Championship 1.5pts each-way 12-1 bet365.

Shelton is up against Ben Martin (9.15pm), Theegala faces Brian Stuard (9.25pm), while An is out in the penultimate match with Justin Lower (9.45pm). Homa and Willett comprise the final twoball at 9.55pm UK and Ireland time. Some punters will opt just for Homa, but An and Theegala are a more appealing package - both on offer at 12-1. Homa seems by far the most likely winner, but he has missed a lot of fairways and the forecast for Saturday-afternoon breezes in Napa will put pressure on everyone off the tee. Shelton, a Racing Post Sport 125-1 pre-tournament recommendation, is one of the best Korn Ferry Tour graduates in the Fortinet field. The Korean won the BMW PGA Championship by six shots in 2015 and appeared a world-beater, but putting problems ground him down. Homa has been excellent, though, and punters who took the 16-1 should be on great terms with themselves. The only reason to overlook the ante-post 16-1 was the fact Homa is making his Presidents Cup debut next week. It will be the first time he has represented his country in a professional team event, becoming a teammate of Scottie Scheffler, Patrick Cantlay and other American superstars, so next week's Quail Hollow gig must be on his mind. The leading duo have a two-shot buffer over those in third place at Silverado Resort and Spa, California. Two of his four PGA Tour titles have come in the Golden State. Willett rocketed up the board with a Friday 64.

They hold a two-stroke lead over the field, with first-round leader Justin Lower taking a step back with a 71 in the second round.

Malcolm Marx try gives South Africa crucial bonus-point win against ... (Telegraph.co.uk)

It has been reported by SA Rugby Mag that Rapport, a South African paper, is ready to publish a story detailing that several Springboks players have tested ...

South Africa's preparations have been disrupted by issues off the field, with South Africa Rugby putting out a statement this afternoon denying rumours of failed drugs tests in their camp. Their loose forwards are all good off the ball, so we need to look after the ball at the breakdowns and make sure we make use of the opportunities we create in the match." The Springboks have also been dogged by a scandal involving fly-half Elton Jantjies, who has left the camp after reports in the South African media which alleged that he had been having an affair with team dietician Zeenat Simjee. South Africa will look to end the first half with another try. South Africa go through the phases, crashing into a wall of blue and white shirts. Orlando is pinged for not rolling away, with Doleman warning Montoya that Argentina are at serious risk of players going to the sin bin for repeat offences. Juan Martin Gonzalez intercepts a loose pass and has a clear run at the line, but not the pace to get there. The Springboks move the ball through the hands and Mapimpi gets it out on the wing. He tears forwards and, while he's brought down, he manages to offload to Marx and, although the ball bobbles in his hands, he holds on and thunders across the line. South Africa climb to 14 points on the competition table, level with New Zealand. “Disappointingly, these allegations have already appeared online despite the absence of any evidence to support them. The home side were also awarded a penalty try to go with a score for centre Matias Moroni.

Rugby Championship: Springboks made to graft for bonus-point ... (planetrugby.com)

South Africa got the job done but were made to graft for their 36-20 bonus-point win over Argentina in Saturday's Rugby Championship Test in Buenos Aires.

Boffelli added the extras which meant South Africa held a narrow 22-20 lead, but they held their composure when De Allende powered through two tackles before scoring their fourth try in the 75th minute. However, the Boks were also guilty of that, especially on defence, and in the 60th minute Willie le Roux received a yellow card when he was caught offside deep inside his 22. And during that time Moroni crossed for their second try after great work from Marcos Kremer in the build-up. The ball was shifted wide to Canan Moodie, who was stopped just short of the try-line before Hendrikse gathered and went over but he failed to ground the ball after a desperate tackle from Santiago Carreras. [Argentina](https://www.planetrugby.com/team/argentina), Matias Moroni crossed the whitewash and they were also awarded a penalty try, while Emiliano Boffelli slotted a couple of penalties and a conversion. First, Hendrikse glided through a gaping hole deep inside Argentina territory after Marx did well in the build-up with a powerful carry.

But De Allende powered through two tackles to score from close range and Marx benefitted from tired tackling to score in the corner as South Africa extinguished Argentine hopes. Almost immediately, Matias Moroni made a stunning break though the heart of the Springbok defence to dot down under the posts and Boffelli's conversion made it a two-point game, with South Africa still down to 14 men. Scrum-half Bertranou was yellow carded and Lood de Jager bulldozed over for what would have been a fourth South Africa try, only for Doleman to rule there was a knock-on in the build-up as the Boks led 22-6 at half-time. New Zealander referee James Doleman had no option but to award a penalty try and send Carreras to the sinbin. South Africa brushed aside a series of scandals during the week to storm to the top of the Rugby Championship with a bonus point 36-20 win over Argentina on Saturday. The unflappable Emiliano Boffelli knocked over the first penalty of the game for Argentina on nine minutes but moments later Damian Willemse replied for the visitors.

Springboks player ratings vs Argentina | The Rugby Championship (RugbyPass)

South Africa stayed alive in the Rugby Championship with a hard-earned 36-20 win over Argentina in Buenos Aires on Saturday.

Francois Steyn (on for Willemse, 65th min) – 6 – Brought the calmness the Boks needed in the backline when Los Pumas looked to steal the show. Albertus Smith (on for De Jager, 54th min) – 5 – Won a breakdown penalty in his first action as a replacement. Deon Fourie (on for Kolisi, 60th min) – 6 – Won a crucial turnover penalty with two minutes remaining and worked hard on defence. Was a real menace on defence. However, was yellow-carded and conceded a penalty try – which put his team under pressure. Great work off the ball, but it was his physical presence on defence and at the breakdown that was invaluable. Continued to work hard and took his tackle count into double digits. He also made a match-high 17 tackles. His reading of the game is up with the best. Great on defence and with the ball in hand. He was not flawless, but is settling into his new role. However, he conceded a couple of penalties and a yellow card.
