Thomas Aken, a three-time winner on the DP World Tour, now in his 40s. This was his parat at 18. He’s playing quite difficult the last hole. Mark and I went out there early straight into the wind, isn’t it, Mark? Yeah, tough hole. This is Hal Vorson. That’s a interesting putting style, is it? It’s almost a belly extra long putter, but it’s worked today. Was five under par, but as Richard said, 18 straight into the wind. Tough hole. He drops one there, but he does have a share of the course record. Marcus Kennel has an eagle try and bins it. Wow, that is a real bonus. Not an easy target to a very small green, but that’s a a real bonus. Eagle, the halfway cut, Richard, was 14 over par. Yes. I mean, I think they also didn’t have quite enough spotters here, I don’t think. um you know to find the balls because if you just That’s a good shot from Hill Manel. Let’s see how he see how he handles this par three. Oh, a club twirl. Oh yes. He cut that up into that breeze beautifully, didn’t he? Yeah. Proper golf shot. We’ve seen a proper golf shot there. Yeah. Good stroke, Raph. Very nice par three. Sixth hole. His 15th today. Tie for the lead. Remember, with Hal Vorson and fellow South African Thomas Aken. This is another great par three. Stay there. Oh, it’s fortunate. Or is it? Yes. There’s Jack Senior. He was on the tall table in our hotel last night, wasn’t he? Oh, very nice. Potting them well. And potting them well on the court. At number six, I think we’re going to use the words beautiful a lot. That’s a lovely try, but this is a beautiful par three with the wind into and spin it back. So quite a big cushion. And he’s done so very nicely. Yeah, what a five iron that was. Mel said he absolutely ripped. It was only 189 yards. This is just ball outside right. Got to fancy him for this. Well done. 290 yds to the flag today. Rafaer at Mark Row’s favorite hole. It looks such a small green set up there nestling in the dunes. Oh, go in. My goodness me. Nearly in on the second bounce. Beauty. Scoal. This at five. Oh, what a beauty that is. It is an eagle two for the Danish lefty. And well, much needed as well. Four over through the first four holes. And then the eagle. Quite a sloth he was putting out. That’s not far off. Oh, well done. That was going to be a full wedge coming back if that had missed. Yeah, the rice smile. He knows he’s just stolen a shot from the golf course there. Seen this shot a few times, haven’t we? Using the contours across the green. It’s going to come round a little bit for right. And there we go. Down hold side. Hello. Hello. I’d love to come here. Not just to commentate, Rich, but you know, I’d love to play it. Yeah. No, it’s lovely place, isn’t it? Nordall, nice uh putt there to finish off round 72. We go now. Third shot. Steady, steady. Stay there. just is it just oh it’s just a false front there. That’s a yard from being a really great shot. And now what’s he got? Another another 10 at least. Well done from Pen six. Back to back birdies. That helps after that double bogey at the fourth. The clothes flatting about there for Manel. this for his bogey. Well done. Just one gone. Good bogey. I mean, you know, sometimes you you make a bogey and and you go for that could have been anything where he was with that light. Another good pat there from Carrera Beo. That’s a second birdie of the day for him. So, one over Olives in trouble again here. Oh, it’s like a long bunker shot. Stab bunker shot. Oh, wow. That is brilliant. Cool. Smoked it. My goodness me. Look at that one. Off and running. That is a huge hit. That’s a very brave hit. Rowey should have learned something and does. That is going to be hard to beat for birdie the other day. The lie he had and where he was. Brilliant stuff. Look at that comeback. Horror start back to plus one. That is a fantastic recovery. John Catlin. He’s at three under. Second shot here at the 17th. Down it comes. And just get down that slope if it can. Go on. It’s going. That’ll do. Bear tow this to go three under. and does. Lovely smooth stroke from the left-hander. Yakov Scott Olison is somewhere over there on the left side. They’re all looking up there. My goodness me. Where is he? Oh, stop it. Well, that’s just miraculous. That is incredible. Very straight leg, isn’t he? It’s a power swing, isn’t it? It’s an athletic golf swing. Power position, power stance, and unfortunately Oh, hello. He’s quite Marshall seems happy. I’m not sure he will be when he gets up there, but yes, he’s powered that one straight into the rough, hasn’t he? A good one to make and does. And a fantastic nine holes. Back nine of course starting on the back n 31 Sullivan at the 11th just to get to two under. It’s a pretty good try. Go on. Yes, you beauty. Get in there. The hump is more pronounced so you could easily get this one going left. Going left and could be in a world of trouble. It’ll be strong. Oh, so he looked down as if has it come out? This is left. So far left. I mean, got a line on it. He’s looking at me and I’ve got a line on it. So, I’m going to make the beine. So, excuse me. Over and out. Little 3/4 shot cutting in which is nice. And that is just beautifully done. Flag high. Couldn’t be more flag. Arabo in the bunker up and over the ridge. Oh, fabulous. Look at that spin control. I don’t see much in this. Got to fancy this one. Yeah, good call there from John Morgan. Excellent stuff from right hand. Here we go then with Penge. Oh, he’s he’s going to come off this with a P. You are kidding me. Of course. Grew up on the hills outside Sheffield at the Halamshire Golf Club. Tell you what, it can blow out there as well. So, he’s used to playing in some breeze. And look at that. He’s going to get better here. Playing some great golf today. Not easy. Well, this is going to be for part of the day. Surely cannot be beaten if he makes this benge. And is my goodness me. How do you fashion a four from where he went on that hole? Yeah. Never sniffed the fairway, did he at all? But each one could have been lost. This is just can’t see anything from there, Richard. So, that wasn’t his ball we saw by the whole side, but that is an exquisite touch. He’ll make his part. No, it isn’t. That’s Fitzpatrick, my naughty producer. H right at it. This is top class golf. This really is. He’s good enough to win. We know that. Now see whether Hollison can make use of this very good T-shirt he hit into this 16th. Another good par three this one. Hang on. All round good putt. Nicely done. Now 12th hole get to five under. Get a share of the leap for Fitzpatrick. Does does superb play to watch another DP World Tour video? Click here.

You should not show anything supporting Trump !!!!!
All these bot comments used to boost sentiment 😂
Love how the chief exec of the DP tour has jumped into bed with Trump. There is no low for these moneysucking leeches. Awful. The PR machine can paint it however they like, it's just more corruption on show that most people can't see.
Won’t be watching this – want nothing to do with endorsing this man.
Really Trump? DP world is disgusting.
Interesting to see with the lower number of ball spotters … the Pros getting the consequences of their actions ( like us )… just player and caddie looking for 3 mins … the grip it and rip it , just cannot work without numerous pairs of eyes on the errant shots . 😀
I love President Trump! Great course sir congratulations – shame about the windmills!
F TRUMP and F DP world tour for having the tournament there. Shame on you
Seriously, at a trump golf course? Absolutely disgusting.
Embarrassing that they play on a Trump course. A man that provoke and create war, and take countries money by force
No Eddie P footage…come on editors…the TCF gang will be after you
Won't watch this because wel you know there is a name attached to this course. The Golf Association should be shamed!
I came here, not to watch, but to say that I won't watch any pro golf at a course owned by the disgrace of a human being that is the eponymous owner of the course.
I assume the pros play by the rules and actually count every shot unlike the course’s namesake… tuning out this shite.
At Trump International?? DP World Tour you are now dead to me.
I love the way the elegant lines of those beautiful, clean wind turbines set off the otherwise monotonously featureless seascape.
I won’t watch the video either for giving and supporting Trump. Very disappointing DP World Tour.
don said the Epstein Iist is a hoax 👀☢️🐍🤮💩👎……need I say more?!?! don is a Traitor to humanity and CANNOT Be Trusted under any circumstances!
Excellent course now time to get back to turnberry for the best course in the world
Shame on you DP Tour for playing golf on the worlds most ignorant human specimens golf course. His name is Trump, in case you missed the punchline.
I enjoy the DP TOUR, but I can't understand why you would have any stop at a Trump course. The people in charge should be ashamed
They playing the old or the new course which just opened?
I played this course when it first opened – rubbish course. IMO the architect doesn't remotely understand links golf; this isn't a links, most of the tees are way up high so you can't keep your ball low AND also the greens' slopes, humps and bumps are ridiculous – links golf is not a putting competition, links are some of the few places in golf where the journey from tee to green is the important thing and the putting green is and should be relatively straightforward. This is just yank golf transplanted to the wrong place unless they instead routed the course between the dunes like Birkdale rather than climbing up the dunes to tee off.
Gotta love players who bang their putter into the green when they miss a mile long putt. (Around 0:20)
You can say anything you want about Trump, but he's golf courses are amazing!
Are they allowed free drops and mulligans in honor of the course name?
Course looks stunning!
Trump gets a lot of negativity – however I only ever hear good things about his golf courses – I think it is important to be fair. 👍
Never heard of anyone
