Koepka saw off the challenge of McIlroy on Sunday to charge to a 3 shot victory in the St Jude Invitational. He showed his class over the weekend and returned an 11/1 winner for our Golf Tipster.

His nearest challenger was Webb Simpson, who was also tipped up at 33/1. Horschel was a headline tip and was top 10 throughout - unfortunately his challenge for the W tailed off over the weekend.

The TV cameras were (right) focused on a race for the ages at Ascot on Saturday, but our tipster looked elsewhere and reaped rich rewards. Four winners by the time the day was done; at 3/1, 7/2, 10/1 and 7/2.

Webb Simpson was an early front runner but none of our follow golfers were able to land a serious blow over the weekend. Having said that, we still had three golfers post a top 20 finish. Solid, but never quite a factor.
