Yes! Today’s a good day. I’ll share some Twitter thanks to those who’ve helped me, some direct but others indirect by reading their stories or raising £M for cancer charities @PMPSurvivor @Anne_Marie_PA @AdamAlderson3 @tracey_crouch @SkyJacquie @bowelbabe @acpmpresearch

@GolfweekNichols Must be the first time there’s been English winners on PGA and LPGA events on the same weekend 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿

Big day for English players! Lottie Woad was gearing up for NCAAs last year at this time. Now she’s a two-time winner on the LPGA.

@GolfweekNichols Zero coverage in the U.K. this week

“The final round is well underway” … as TV coverage begins on CBS. Leader Jeeno Thitikul, in the final group, is on the 13th green. The chaser, Ronni Yin, has four holes left. The tournament nearly over by the time it comes on TV …

@MattAdamsFoL Very true. Nelly had no challenge from her main (by world ranking) rivals. Jeeno and Lydia tanked and Charley was always too far back

@GolfweekNichols Hannah, Charley or Jeeno

First women’s major of the year is here. Who’s your pick to win the Chevron at Memorial Park?

It’s 37 years ago tomorrow, since the tragic events at Hillsborough. If there is one thing you listen to today it’s this. BBC Radio 2 commentator Peter Jones and his final report on that day. Simple, yet very powerful words. NO ONE should go to a football match and not come home. RIP The 97 Liverpool fans. #LFC #YNWA #Hillsborough

@lilianstewart39 Nice tan 🔥

@SkySportsF1 Awful, bring back Fleetwood Mac!

A first look at our brand new titles for the 2026 season 🤩🏁

@GolfweekNichols Charley’s playing very well. I think seeing Lottie Woad arrive on the scene has given her extra motivation to remain top Brit 🇬🇧

Charley Hull on making history as the highest-ranked British player since the Rolex Rankings debuted 20 years ago. Hull rose No. 3 after her victory in Saudi: "I'm not really one to stare at rankings and stuff because it shifts all the time. I just look at, it think it's pretty cool, carry on, and crack on play golf." (Full story below)

@GolfweekNichols Yes! Our English roses 🌹 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿. Lottie arriving on the scene has meant Charley’s upped her game. Here’s hoping Mimi Rhodes has a great first year on the LPGA.

Both Charley Hull, No. 5, and Lottie Woad, No. 8, are enjoying the highest rankings of their careers. Late last year, when Woad first climbed into the top 10, it marked the first time that England had two players in the top 10 of the Rolex Rankings.

@MBrundleF1 Foolish, defied doctors orders to compete, and the story is now all about her and not her teammate Breezy Johnson who got the gold #BreezyJohnson

Heal well Lindsey Vonn. What an incredibly brave, determined, and relentless competitor, you have my absolute respect.

Remembering the legend that was Les Dawson (2 February 1934 – 10 June 1993) I never tire of this clip. So so funny😂😂

@TomAbbottGC @LakeNonaGCC @LPGA Very poor from LPGA. At least there’s been some cracking football matches to watch in the EPL today

Celebrity play continues @LakeNonaGCC in the Hilton Grand Vacations Tournament of Champions. @LPGA play has now been pushed back until 1pm ET What is unclear is why celebrity play started at 10am but LPGA play has not yet started.

@GolfweekNichols Poor decision. Just wrap up warm.

Just talked to Annika after she finished playing the back nine. (Celebrities reduced to nine holes for Round 4.) She said it’s “very playable” and doesn’t understand why the LPGA pros aren’t playing.

@LPGA @HiltonGrandVac Move it to Dubai next year. Plenty of cash there and guaranteed sun and high temps

An update regarding the @HiltonGrandVac:

@GolfweekNichols Jeeno is a worthy no.1 on so many levels. A great outlook on life. Definitely glass half full.

The LPGA’s No. 1 player was asked about burnout and her answer was fantastic. “You know, sometimes you get lazy. You get burnout of hitting balls. When you guys have been in the office for a long time, I'm pretty sure you get burned out sometimes. But life goes on. Still have work to do. If not, we got no moneeeey.” (Keep in mind that Jeeno Thitikul, 22, has made over $17 million inside the ropes!)

The first colour episode of Ivor The Engine was broadcast on this day in 1976 (the original black and white series aired on ITV during the late 1950's).
