Martin Kaymer is positioned for a season-best finish at the HP Byron Nelson Championship after firing a 1-under-par 34-35=69 in the third round.
The German's only top 10 in a PGA TOUR event was a T9 at the WGC-Accenture Match Play, and he hasn't finished any better than a T35 at the Masters in a stroke-play event. In his third navigation of TPC Four Seasons, he circled four birdies and squared three bogeys. Two of those four birdies dropped from outside 22 feet. He enters the final round at 6-under 204.

Martin Kaymer concludes his week at THE PLAYERS with a 3-under-par 35-34=69, finishing the week at 1-under 287.

Kaymer has struggled on the PGA TOUR in 2013, still only owning one top 30 all season. That came way back at the WGC-Accenture Match Play Championship. Everything worked pretty well for him in his final round, landing 12 GIR, splitting 10 (of 14) fairways and gaining more than a stroke on the field with his flat stick at the time of his posting. He will hope that this finally means some momentum, as he heads to the HP Byron Nelson Championship later this week.

Martin Kaymer heads to Hilton Head for his first RBC Heritage after a T35 at the Masters.

He enters riding a wave of late momentum, with birdies on each of his final five holes at Augusta National. While he’s made four (of six) cuts this season, his Masters finish is the best of any stroke play event he’s played on the 2013 PGA TOUR. Needless to say, his rookie year on TOUR could use a bit of a spark.

Martin Kaymer reached the midpoint of the Tampa Bay Championship in 8-over-par 74-76=150, six strokes too high to survive the cut.

Kaymer competes in some of the deepest fields around the world, but this week's result will go in the books as his seventh consecutive finish outside the top 25 in a stroke-play event on the PGA TOUR. In four starts in what is his rookie season on the circuit, he's fared no better than a T49 at last week's 65-man, no-cut money grab at TPC Blue Monster at Trump Doral. The German converted on only two of 20 birdie opportunities at Copperhead this week.

Martin Kaymer has qualified for the World Golf Championships-Cadillac Championship on March 7-10.

Rarely a year passes when a golfer of Kaymer's ilk doesn't need this late exemption awarded to the top 50 in the Official World Golf Ranking. Tiger Woods gained entry via this conduit in both 2011 and 2012. The German entered the WGC-Match Play slotted 28th in the OWGR. Six others inside the top 50 previously ineligible will join him at TPC Blue Monster at Doral: Bill Haas; Jason Day; Fredrik Jacobson; Tim Clark; Alexander Noren; Padraig Harrington. Those inside the top 50 in the OWGR following action around the world next weekend will also earn an exemption into the second WGC of the season.

Martin Kaymer dismissed Rafael Cabrera-Bello 2 and 1 in the Player Bracket in the second round of the World Golf Championships-Accenture Match Play Championship.

Neither golfer had much going on today. Kaymer completed 16 holes in just 1-under-par to RCB's even-par total, but the German won all three holes he birdied, which all but served as the difference. They halved pars on the last four holes. Kaymer advanced to the third round for the third consecutive edition. He'll find Hunter Mahan waiting for him on the first tee on Saturday morning.

Martin Kaymer recorded a 2-and-1 victory over George Coetzee in the Player Bracket in the opening round of the World Golf Championships-Accenture Match Play Championship.

This was one of the better matches of the first round. All four of Kaymer's win were with par breakers, including one eagle. Coetzee sniped two wins, both with pars, but he completed 17 holes in 1-under-par. Kaymer scored 3-under and advanced to face the winner of Lee Westwood v. Rafael Cabrera-Bello on Friday.

Yet again this year, the opening round of the Waste Management Phoenix Open was suspended for darkess at 6:05 p.m. local time.

The one-hour delay for frost in the morning was the primary culprit but a field of 132 on one course in late January doesn't help. Martin Kaymer is one of 33 golfers that will return to TPC Scottsdale at 7:30 a.m. local time to complete the first round. He's had a wild ride already in what is his first round as a PGA TOUR rookie. The German is 3-over-par through 16 holes. He's carded five birdies but hasn't been under par at any point. That's due to six bogeys and an opening double at the par-4 first hole. The second round is also scheduled to begin at 7:30 a.m.

Martin Kaymer will make his 2013 PGA TOUR debut at the Waste Management Phoenix Open.

The German has only once teed it up at TPC Scottsdale, and that was a missed cut in 2010. In his last six worldwide starts, he has five top 10s and a win at the Nedbank Golf Challenge to wrap up 2012. A T6 in Abu Dhabi and a T9 at the Qatar Masters kicked off his 2013 overseas.

Despite already being a major champion, Martin Kaymer will take up membership as a rookie on the 2013 PGA TOUR due to a top 125 in non-member earnings.

Though he had the option to join the TOUR in 2011 after winning the 2010 PGA Championship at Whistling Straits, he put off membership until this season. He will enter the 2013 season fresh off of a win at the Nedbank Golf Challenge and in top form. We already know that he can be successful on American soil, it’s now just a question of schedule management.

Martin Kaymer carded a 3-under-par 35-34=69 in the final round of the Nedbank Golf Challenge en route to a two-stroke victory over Charl Schwartzel.

Kaymer took the lead with a third-round 70 at Gary Player Country Club in Sun City, South Africa before sharing the low round on Sunday to post 8-under 280. It's his first victory since the 2011 WGC-HSBC Champions, and fulfills the goal he established at the beginning of the week. "I’m very happy to finally win this year, that was the most important thing for me," he said, "because I was practicing very hard. ... I said to Craig, my caddy, we have to win one tournament every year and this is our last chance, fortunately we could bring it home." Bill Haas was the only American in the 12-man field; he finished alone in third place. Two-time defending champion, Lee Westwood, settled for solo fifth, seven strokes adrift of Kaymer. Winning is winning, so despite the fact that Kaymer beat only 11 guys, it was a deep pool of talent and he achieved his objective. His fantasy value entering 2013 as a rookie on the PGA TOUR is arguably at an all-time high.

Martin Kaymer will join the PGA TOUR for the first time in 2013.

Kaymer earned the opportunity to accept membership with his victory at the 2010 PGA Championship. He postponed his commitment but made it clear that it was still in his plans. That he will be a rookie in 2013 will bother purists, but fantasy gamers will love it. The German, who will turn 27 on Dec. 28, hasn't competed in more than 11 events in the PGA TOUR in any season (2009) -- he made just eight starts in 2012 -- so his value is certain to spike.

Martin Kaymer carded a 4-under-par 34-34=68 in his final round of the World Golf Championships-HSBC Champions to finish the tournament in 16-under 272.

Kaymer had thoughts to defend his title today given he was 7-under on the round through 16 holes (and 19-under overall). Alas, after finding a greenside bunker at the par-3 17th, he'd blast over the green into another bunker. From there, he skulled his third over the green yet again. After finally reaching the putting surface with his fourth shot, he two-putted for par and out of contention.

Martin Kaymer sits at 12-under-par 204 through three rounds of the World Golf Championship-HSBC Champions, six strokes adrift of the 54-hole clubhouse lead.

The lanky German rolled in another seven birdies today to total 19, good for a share of second-most at the time he signed his card. Given the series of very low scores this week, he can't be ruled out as a threat to successfully defend his title. Of course, as usual his chances will boil down to the number of bodies in between him and the lead, not the number of strokes.

Martin Kaymer opened his title defense of the World Golf Championships-HSBC Champions with a 4-under-par 34-34=68, finishing three strokes back of the overnight co-leaders.

Kaymer won this tournament by three strokes last year, but that was at Sheshan International Golf Club in Shanghai. At Mission Hills' Olazábal Course today, he converted six birdies against two bogeys, but signed his card having settled for a par at the par-5 ninth hole. The German nearly holed his third from in front of the green, but the ball hit the pin and caromed behind the hole. He'd miss the four-foot comebacker and didn't hide his disgust in waving his putter in frustration.
