Willett Bang

The World’s top ranked amateur and GOLFPUNK diarist Danny Willett is in the field of the Spanish Open having earned a berth through his victory in the Spanish Amateur Championship. Willett is playing his second European Tour event after his impressive debut in Andalucia where he finished joint 19th.

Sitting joint 59th on one under after rounds of 73 and 70 at the beginning of the day, the lad from Rotherham is continuing to put his professional counterparts to shame. Having just carded 64 in his third round, one off the Real Club de Golf de Sevilla’s course record, Danny now sits sixth on the leader board.

We wish the prodigy the best of luck, not only because he’s a lovely chap, but mainly because Features Editor Shaun puts a couple of quid on all of our diarist for a top 10 finish. If Willett can close this out we should be knee deep in cakes courtesy of his result.

We’re due to chat with the prodigy next week with our first question likely to be, “Danny son, what’s your problem? You’re not meant to be this good yet.”

What would you like to ask him? Leave a comment or email us at website@jf-media.co.uk and we’ll put your best questions to him, they’ll probably be better than ours.
