    2016 World Golf Championships–Cadillac Championship (The 16th of 43 events in the PGA TOUR Season) Doral, Fla. March 3-6, 2016 Purse: $9,500,000 Trump National Doral-Blue Monster Par/Yards: 72/7,543 Final-Round Notes – Sunday, March 06, 2016 Weather Sunday: Mostly sunny skies with a high in the low 80s. Northerly winds increased to 15-25 mph in the afternoon. Final Leaderboard 1 Adam Scott 68-66-73-69—276 (-12) 2 Bubba Watson 69-69-71-68—277 (-11) T3 Danny Willett 68-69-72-69—278 (-10) T3 Rory McIlroy 71-65-68-74—278 (-10) 5 Phil Mickelson 67-72-70-70—279 (-9) 6 Jimmy Walker 69-72-73-66—280 (-8) Winner Stats After nine holes of the final round, four players, Bubba Watson, Danny Willett, Phil Mickelson and Rory McIlroy, made the turn tied for the lead at 10-under and a back-nine shootout looked likely. It was Adam Scott, who made the turn at 8-under, who came from behind after starting the day three strokes behind Rory McIlroy. Scott began with a birdie on the opening hole before a pair of double bogeys at Nos. 3 and 5 halted his challenge. Scott then played the last 13 holes in 6-under par. After driving behind a tree on the final hole, Scott bravely tried to cut his second shot around the tree and over the water. His ball came to rest on the grassy bank inside the water hazard left of the green. Scott chipped to 6’ 8” below the hole and made the putt to win in back-to-back weeks on the PGA TOUR.

    Commercial Bank Qatar Masters Doha GC Doha, Qatar 21 Jan 2015 ­ 24 Jan 2015 SPANIARDS SAMPLE LOCAL CULTURE IN DOHA Friday, 23 January 2015 Pablo Larrazabal (left), Ali Fakhri and Rafa Cabrera­Bello are schooled in the art of Arabic calligraphy during the Commercial Bank Qatar Masters at Doha Golf Club () Spanish stars Rafa Cabrera­Bello and Pablo Larrazábal sampled a little local culture when they received a lesson in Arabic calligraphy after the second round of the Commercial Bank Qatar Masters. “It’s fun to try things like this,” said Cabrera­Bello, who has twice finished third at Doha Golf Club, including last year when he missed out on the play­off by a single stroke. As Sergio Garcia continued a solid defence of his title with a second round of 69 and compatriot Alejandro Cañizares remained in the top ten courtesy of a 70, Cabrera­Bello explained why he and many other Spaniards enjoy the US$2.5 million tournament, which sits at the heart of The European Tour’s desert swing. “It’s just being like back home,” said Cabrera­Bello, a two­time European Tour winner, including the Omega Dubai Desert Classic. “There’s normally sunshine, it’s a little breezy, we play in short sleeves and I like the fact that there’s sand all around.” Cabrera­Bello considers the Commercial Bank Qatar Masters one of his favourite tournaments, and said he has always felt comfortable on Doha Golf Club’s Peter Harradine­designed layout. “I think it’s a long hitter’s course,” he said.
