Timeline

1930

He recorded a Top-30 finish, seeing him move to a highest ranking of 48th.

In June 2022, Bland joined the inaugural LIV Golf Invitational Series.

He was subsequently subject to fines and suspension from the European Tour for playing without a conflicting event release.

After those sanctions were upheld by an independent arbitrator, in May 2023, the European Tour announced that he had resigned his membership of the tour.

In May 2023, Bland applied for entry to the 2023 Senior Open Championship, to be played in late July, for which he had fulfilled one exemption category as a former European Tour winner being at the exact age of 50 years at the time of the championship.

However, Bland was denied entry due to outstanding fines to the European Tour, related to breaching conflicting tournament regulations.

European Tour playoff record (1–2)

1948

At 48 years old, he became the oldest player to ever hold a share of the lead of the U.S. Open after two rounds, however he fell back over the weekend to finish in a tie for 50th.

With eight top-10 finishes during the 2021 European Tour season, Bland finished a career-best 11th place on the Race to Dubai rankings.

In January 2022, Bland finished as runner-up at the Slync.io Dubai Desert Classic, losing to Viktor Hovland in a playoff.

Being just outside the Top 50 in the Official World Golf Ranking in March 2022, Bland looked to find form in order to qualify for the Masters Tournament.

He won his group at the WGC-Dell Technologies Match Play, halving with Bryson DeChambeau as well as beating Talor Gooch and Lee Westwood along the way.

However, he was defeated in the last 16 by Dustin Johnson, ultimately just missing out on progressing to the Top 50.

Bland made his full PGA Tour debut the following week at the Valero Texas Open, needing a victory to get into The Masters.

1973

Richard Bland (born 3 February 1973) is an English professional golfer.

2002

2004

In subsequent seasons, he failed to win enough money to maintain his card on the European Tour several times but regained his playing status each time, via the Challenge Tour rankings in 2004, 2008, and 2019, and via qualifying school in 2007 and 2011.

In May 2021, in his 478th start on the European Tour, Bland achieved his first victory at the Betfred British Masters.
