Gonzalo Fernández-Castaño

Gonzalo Fernández Castaño (+6) succumbed to the tough situation in the first round of the Honda Classic in the PGA National (Palm Beach Gardens, Florida).

Hola a todos. Hoy os escribo en el avión de vuelta a EE.UU., donde me dispongo a jugar las próximas cuatro semanas. Me da mucha pena faltar a la cita de Wentworth, el que es sin lugar a dudas, el torneo más importante del Tour Europeo.

Gonzalo Fernández-Castaño donará 100€ a la Fundación Make-A-Wish Spain por cada birdie que haga durante la semana del Open de España. Así lo ha anunciado el campeón madrileño en twitter, animando a todos sus amigos a unirse al reto, consiguiendo que muchos de ellos recojan el guante y se unan a esta bonita causa que trabaja para hacer realidad las ilusiones de niños entre 3 y 18 años, que tienen enfermedades graves, como tratamiento de vida.

Gonzalo Fernández Castaño bid an early farewell to the Arnold Palmer Invitational. The Madrid native missed the cut after the second round with a card of 73 shots, and he's already got his eyes on the Valero Texas, the next event of the PGA Tour held at the TPC in San Antonio.

Gonzalo Fernández Castaño (PAR) began today in attempts to defend his title at the BMW Masters in Shanghai with an insufficient first round, most of all if we look at leader, Alexander Levy (-7). However, with 54 holes ahead and no cut, there's still much more to do and to tell...

Gonzalo Fernández Castaño ha librado una primera jornada muy trabajada en el Arnold Palmer Invitational. Ha cogido menos de la mitad de las calles y sólo nueve greenes, por lo que ha estado toda la ronda luchando para recuperar y mantenerse en el torneo. Sólo un final deslucido ha ensombrecido una magnífica batalla.

Gonzalo Fernández-Castaño comienza su particiación en el Masters de Augusta este jueves a partir de las 18.42, hora peninsular española. El golfista madrileño jugará con el norteamericano Derek Ernst y el coreano Sang Moon Bae.

Gonzalo Fernández-Castaño will participate in the Masters at Augusta this Thursday starting at 18.42, Spanish local time. The Spanish golfer will play alongside American golfer, Derek Ernst, and Korean golfer, Sang Moon Bae.

Gonzalo Fernández Castaño ha dicho adiós al Arnold Palmer Invitational antes de tiempo. El jugador madrileño falló el corte tras una segunda ronda de 73 golpes y ya tiene su punto de mira enfilado hacia el Valero Texas, próxima cita del PGA Tour que se disputa en el TPC de San Antonio.

Gonzalo Fernández Castaño (-4) se ha dado un importante respiro después de entregar una tarjeta de 68 golpes en el Lake Malaren Golf Club de Shanghai al finalizar la segunda jornada del BMW Masters. El defensor del título se saca la espina de un arranque dubitativo...

Gonzalo Fernández Castaño ha concluido el Puerto Rico Open con una vuelta de 73 golpes para un total de dos bajo par. El madrileño acaba en el puesto 27º, con un sabor de boca final amargo, dentro de una semana que debe ser muy positiva, la lanzadera definitiva de la temporada.

It's no easy task to make a positive analysis out of a round in which you made a double bogey and a triple bogey. However, there are days like today when it's worth it to make the effort. Two major slip-ups on the 10th and on the 14th tainted a good round of golf by Gonzalo Fernández-Castaño at Sawgrass.

Hi everyone! Today, I'm writing you from up in the air on the plane back to the US, where I'll be playing the next four weeks. It's a shame to have to miss the BMW Championship at Wentworth, the flagship event of the European Tour.

Gonzalo Fernández-Castaño will start the season off this Thursday in the Human Challenge, third date of the PGA Tour in 2015, held on three different courses in California: PGA West Palmer Private, PGA West Nicklaus Private and La Quinta. It will be the first tournament of the year for the Spanish golfer, along with the first benchmark test to measure how his game is doing after such a long period of eight weeks without competing.

Gonzalo Fernández-Castaño is the star of the latest commercial by Srixon. Under the slogan, 'Journey to Better', the Madrid native looks back on his career, the path that took him to the US with the desire to exceed his own expectations and to become even more of a champion.

Gonzalo Fernández-Castaño will take on the Honda Classic this week. Some time before, now in the past, was his elimination in the WGC Accenture Match Play against Hunter Mahan. But it's time to move forward, and much more so now that the PGA Tour has landed indefinitely on this Madrid native's territory.

Gonzalo Fernández Castaño (-2) ended his participation in the BMW Masters with a 77, which put him back to 43º place after a complicated round due to strong winds.


Gonzalo Fernández Castaño (-7) has strung together a second round under seventy shots at the BMW Masters, although his card for a 69 fell short if we keep in mind what went on today at the Lake Malaren Golf Club in Shanghai...

Gonzalo Fernández Castaño will begin his participation in the Valspar Championship today, PGA Tour tournament held on the infamously tough Copperhead course, at the Innisbrook Resort in Tampa, Florida. The Madrid native is confident in his ability to continue with the good vibes demonstrated just seven days ago in Puerto Rico, and which ended in his best results of the season in the US.
