That one begins on November 5 and it looks more of a damp squib than a fireworks spectacular but it’s impossible to fault the Tour’s response to the pandemic and the way they’ve altered the schedule and introduced so many really good events at such short notice needs to be applauded.

Whether we’ll see another Scottish Championship I don’t know but given we’ve lost the Alfred Dunhill Links Championship, getting some more autumnal links action on the schedule following the Scottish Open a fortnight ago is a real plus.

Unlike we do at the ADLC, we won’t have to endure hours of live coverage of the amateurs or ‘celebrities’ so it’s a win – win and it’s an event I’m quite looking forward to.

Either way, Scott Hend’s top-10 at last week’s BMW PGA Championship at Wentworth saved the Queenslander from the embarrassment of having to miss this week’s Scottish Championship at Fairmont St Andrews just 10 minutes from the Home of Golf.

His first top-10 finish anywhere since his victory at the Maybank Championship in Malaysia last March, Hend fired a 4-under 68 in the final round at Wentworth to climb into a tie for 10th, his birdie at the 72nd hole earning automatic entry into the Scottish Championship.

Finally content with the performance of his driver, Hend climbed 72 places in the Official World Golf Rankings and – provided he can cope with the freezing Scottish temperatures – can build on his current Race to Dubai position of 79th, up 37 on a week ago.

Other Australians taking part in the Scottish Championship are Wade Ormsby, Min Woo Lee, Jake McLeod and Zach Murray along with Kiwi legend Michael Campbell.
