News...in brief

Kim shows he's got what it takes

PGA Tour star and up-coming American prospect Anthony Kim took a very big step in underlining his position as the best young player in America by winning the Wachovia Championship. The 22-year-old is highly thought of in the States and is the youngest winner on the tour in more than six years. He finished on 16-under par with a final round 69, enough to beat former Open champ Ben Curtis by five shots. "I don't know what to say," said Kim. "It's a wonderful experience."

R&A alter Open venue

The R&A has announced that 16 out of 18 holes at Royal Birkdale have been altered for the 2008 Open Championship on July 17-20. The course length now sits at 7,173 yards and is only 155 yards longer than it was in 1998 when American Mark O'Meara won. Organisers have include 20 new bunkers, including 16 fairway bunkers. "The game has moved on since the last Open was here so some changes have been necessary," said Dawson. "Believe me, it is long enough.

Scottish win for Nocera

French star Gwladys Nocera showed the kind of form deserving of an experienced Solheim Cup player by winning the Aberdeen Asset Management Ladies' Scottish Open at The Carrick on Loch Lomond. It was her sixth win on the Ladies European Tour in two years, an impressive record. "It's great," said Nocera. "Winning is one of the best things in life. I had a really good day. I'm really happy. There were a lot of good scores and I just thought about doing the best I could."

Woods hopeful on return to action

More than 8,000 people have entered qualifying for the US Open at Torrey Pines in La Jolla on June 12-15 - but organisers will be more concerned about the appearance of the world No.1, Tiger Woods, following his knee surgery. However, reports in the States suggest that Woods is well on course for a return to competitive action following his second place finish at Augusta National. He may even line up in an event two weeks before the US Open.
