Colin Montgomerie hit out at the “ridiculous” pace of play after Billy Horschel and Scottie Scheffler advanced to the final of the WGC-Dell Technologies Match Play.

Horschel defeated France’s Victor Perez 3&2 in the first semi-final and Scheffler then edged past fellow American Matt Kuchar by one hole in the second semi-final at Austin Country Club.
