Darren Clarke will celebrate his first PGA Tour Champions win at a beach bar in the Bahamas as Visa issues force him to miss the Charles Schwab Cup championship later this week.

However, if you think the Dungannon man, 52, will repeat his 2011 Open celebrations by flexing for a week after winning the TimberTech Championship in Boca Raton, think again.

He has promised to relax this time around as he plans to start a new fitness program next week so he can compete with the likes of Pádraig Harrington next year.

“Well, the last win I had – for The Open – was drunk for a week, so this time I won’t,” said Clarke, who made $ 616,932 from 12 starts this year.

“All you have to do is be here two hours before the start and see how many guys are working so hard on the range. We all grind. The standard is so high now that you just can’t afford not to. ”

He was unable to extend his visa during the Covid-19 pandemic and had to return to the Bahamas this week instead of playing in Phoenix.

“All embassies are closed and as a non-US citizen you can only go to the embassy outside of the US to have it renewed,” he said.

“As a result, I have to leave the country, and any other year I would be absolutely disappointed to miss Phoenix. The way it is, I’m disappointed to miss Phoenix, but it’s a rollover season for us so it won’t quite theoretically have the ramifications. ”

He added, “I have to sit down at the Flippers beach bar at the Abaco Club, drink a sea breeze and watch the boys on the big screen up there.

“I have a week off. Then I have another big program. My weight is fluctuating up and down, up and down, and when I get to a certain point, enough is enough, ”he said.

“So I’ll have a week of fun and then I’ll be back in the gym all day. I just need to get myself back into decent shape. At least try it. ”

While Clarke goes to the beach, Harrington faces Shane Lowry and Graeme McDowell at the Houston Open, while Jonny Caldwell and Cormac Sharvin play the Aphrodite Hills Cyprus Showdown and Michael Hoey, Gavin Moynihan and Niall Kearney play the Andalucía Challenge de España first of two consecutive games Events at Novo Sancti Petri in Cádiz.

In the meantime, Leona Maguire will have to wait and see if she will compete via the Rolex rankings at the US Women’s Open next month after being skipped by Lindsay Weaver for the last of 10 places on the LPGA Money List after the LPGA Drive On Championship and just barely goes down $ 2,228.
