I think I'd have to go for Westwood to get one first. His record in the last three majors is not far short of brilliant and he has got to get past the finishing line soon. Rory definately looked on form with his win in America and I hope he keeps it up but I just think that at the moment Lee is a little bit closer to getting the big win.

It looks as though you might be right after last nights first round of the St. Jude Classic in Memphis. The Oceanico-sponsored player shot a course record 63 which must put him in great shape for next weeks US Open.

Just to make things even more interesting, Westwood has just been paired with Tiger Woods for the first two rounds at next weeks US Open.

Wellll, McIlroy certainly answered the question about him or Lee best placed to win their first major...
With Westwood three off the lead going into the final day he's in a fantastic position - If he can claw it back (which he is capable of) and win that will be fantastic for his confidence going into the Open next week. If he can hold it together and stay in the top 3 he'll also feel very confident going into the Open next week.
He's looking more and more like it's only a matter of time for him - probably worth a small wager for at least a top 5 finish next week
On another player - I didn't realise that Robert Karlsson is 6' 7" tall - no wonder he hits the ball miles!

What an unbelievable finish in the St. Jude Classic last night ! Three shots behind with one hole to play it looked like another 2nd place finish for Lee Westwood. You have to feel sorry for Robert Garrigus but that must a fantastic boost for our man leading up to next weeks US Open.
What price back to back victories?
