McIlroy still a top drawcard

Will McIlroy secure a career Grand Slam when he visits Augusta National next month?

THIS week was one of those laden with a mountain of happenings in the world of golf, a lot of it to do with the Zozo Championship that is scheduled to come to an end today.

Because this event was moved from Japan, where it was inaugurated last year, to Sherwood Country Club in Thousand Oaks, California – a home course of sorts of Tiger Woods – it drew more than its fair share of attention. That Woods is the defending champion merely added extra spice to a competition that is co-sanctioned by the Japan Golf Tour and the US PGA Tour.
