Tee Times Portugal Golf: National Club Championship – Vilamoura Men’s Champion

Posted on by

Tee Times Portugal Golf: National Club Championship Solverde – Vilamoura Men’s Three-time Champion – Miramar makes history in Women’s.

15th Title in the history of the Algarves’s Vilamoura Golf Club and the 1st for the Club from Gaia in women’s. Oporto, playing at home, guaranteed the 3rd place in men’s and Quinta do Fojo the 3rd place in women’s.

The Vilamoura Golf Club, on the men’s tournament, and the Miramar Golf Club, in the female, confirmed the favoritism that was given to them in the start of the National Club Championship Solverde and imposed themselves on the finals of yesterday (Sunday the 24th August ’14).

Both the Algarve’s as well as the golfers from Gaia had won the first round of the tournament in stroke play and in the last three days also dominated in match play. Were therefore unquestionable victories, achieved in this 51st edition of the competition that the Portuguese Golf Federation (FPG) organized in Oporto Golf Club in Espinho.

In the Nini Guedes de Queiroz Cup (the women’s tournament) it was made history in the competition because Miramar had never put his name on the trophy. Miramar defeated the champions of last year, the Quinta do Peru Golf & Country Club, for an enlightening 4-1. 

In Visconde de Pereira Machado Cup (men’s), Vilamoura prevented Miramar from becoming the third club to achieve the “double” by winning an even more overwhelming 5.5-1.5. It was the 3rd consecutive title for Vilamoura and the 15th title in their history, and is just one less of the national record of 16 for Club de Golf do Estoril. 

The last round, which started with fog and the temperature a little lower but at the end with sun and a little wind, decided the other classifications of the tournament. The other results, in addition to the end are as follows:

Nini Guedes de Queiroz Cup (women’s tournament): Quinta do Fojo Golf – Golf Club of Paço do Lumiar, 3.5 – 1.5. This result dictated the 3rd place of Quinta do Fojo and the 4th place of Paço do Lumiar.

Visconde de Pereira Machado Cup (men’s): Oporto Golf Club – Quinta do Peru, 5 – 2; Lisbon Sports Club – Club de Golf do Estoril, 3 – 2; Belas Clube de Campo – Oporto B, 3 – 2; Club Golf Terceira Island – Club Golf Center, 4-1; Quinta do Peru B – Oitavos Dunes, 5-0 (by forfeit of the Oitavos team).

World Golf Championships – Bridgestone Invitational

Tee Times Golf – World Golf Championships – Bridgestone Invitational – McIlroy on top of the world after pipping Garcia

McIlroy turned a three shot deficit into a two shot lead within the space of five holes in the WGC-Bridgestone Invitational, before Garcia battled back to leave the pair tied heading into the back nine at Firestone Country Club.

Garcia had played the same back nine in just 27 shots in his second round of 61, but it was McIlroy who came out on top two days later in a tense duel, the 25 year old carding a closing 66 to finish 15 under par.

After 16 birdies in the first three rounds Garcia could only manage one in a closing 71 to finish 13 under.

“What I am really proud of this week is following on from The Open with a performance like this,” McIlroy, only the second European winner of the title after Darren Clarke in 2003, said.

“I said straight after I did not want any let down, I wanted to keep going and performing until the end of the season.

“It’s great to come to one of my favourite tournaments of the year and to perform like this I am pretty satisfied.”

McIlroy pulled his opening drive into the rough but had a gap through the trees and hit a superb low pitch to three feet, while Garcia had to settle for a par by two-putting from long range.

Three-time Major winner McIlroy then two-putted from long range on the par five second for another birdie and also birdied the third to take over the lead as Garcia bogeyed, but that did not tell half the story of an amazing hole.

The decisive moment then came on the par three 15th, where Garcia’s tee-shot left of the green left him with a near-impossible pitch over a bunker and led to a bogey four.

That gave McIlroy a two shot lead with three to play and when Garcia failed to convert a birdie chance from ten feet on the 17th his chance had gone.
