PGA Tour Notebook: Long week for Ryan Moore as bombers rule Doral

PALM HARBOR, Fla. (AP)— Trump National Doral played into the hands of power players last week, and Ryan Moore found out the hard way. 

He was paired in the third round with J.B. Holmes and said, "He's got clubs in holes that I can only dream of having." In the 14 driving holes, Holmes was on average 30.7 yards beyond Moore off the tee. 

Just his luck, Moore got to play with Masters champion Bubba Watson in the final round. Watson was on average 32.9 yards farther than Moore on each hole. 

"He didn't have to worry about getting clubs off us," Holmes said. 

Moore went 74-76 on the weekend and tied for ninth. 

TOUR CHARITY: The PGA Tour says its charitable donations reached a record $140.5 million last year, which includes all six tours it runs – the PGA Tour, Champions Tour, Web.com Tour and the circuits in Canada, China and Latin America. 

The tour said its career charity total now is at $2.14 billion dating to the first contribution of $10,000 at the 1938 Palm Beach Invitational. The tour reached $1 billion in charity in 2005, and the next $1 billion mark in January 2014. 

PGA Tour Commissioner Tim Finchem said five PGA Tour events raised more than $7 million in 2014, and that three of them topped more than $9 million in charity: Valero Texas Open, AT&T Pebble Beach National Pro-Am and Crowne Plaza Invitational at Colonial.
