The European Tour has just begun in earnest, on its race to, er, Dubai, with the first round of the, er, Hong Kong Shanghai Bank Abu Dhabi Open.
Bear with me, it IS the "European" tour.
Anyway, first round scores include World Number One Jordan Spieth on -4, Rory McIlroy on -6 alongside Branden Grace, and Henrik Stenson on -7. The leader? AMATEUR Bryson DeChambeau, the US Amateur champion, on -8.
Might be a one-round wonder. But I suspect we've just seen the explosion onto the main tour of the next, next big thing (Spieth himself is only 22, FFS).
