Aftermath section
The Aftermath section at the bottom of the article includes the draw for the 2019 Masters and what happened at the 2018 Scottish Open shortly after the UK championship. I think this is the wrong heading because the word "aftermath" normally means "the consequences or after-effects of a significant unpleasant event", like a big disaster, so not really appropriate here! I've changed it to "Follow-on events" for now, but if anyone can think of something better, I'd welcome your input as I'm struggling a bit. Maybe "Follow-up" or "Subsequent events" or "After the Masters" or something else? Rodney Baggins (talk) 12:28, 15 February 2019 (UTC)
 * You've pulled the unpleasant bit from nowhere. Aftermath is fine, see the following WP:FA sports articles that use this term to mean after the event has finished. 009 Giro d'Italia, SummerSlam (2003), 1924 Rose Bowl, 1877 Wimbledon Championship. Whilst not all sports articles use this, it's clearly a well used field, and I found more examples of an aftermath section than a reworded section. I vote to keep as is.

 * Actually I got it from the dictionary:


 * Oxford dictionary: The consequences or after-effects of a significant unpleasant event
 * Cambridge dictionary: The period that follows an unpleasant event or accident, and the effects that it causes
 * I can only assume it takes on a different meaning in the sports field, but it disturbs me because it just looks wrong! Anyway your call. Rodney Baggins (talk) 16:28, 15 February 2019 (UTC)
