The men who helped make the US Open Champion: Coach Clive Tucker.I met him through David Howell and we got together at the end of 2006. He is a calm, collected sort of guy and I trust him implicitly. He is very analytical and a deep thinker; a bit like me. He comes to tournaments with me once every three ...

Graeme McDowell may have just lifted one of the hottest titles in golf - The US Open - but not so long ago he was doing battle with none other than Golf World's Jock Howard! This how the round unfolded... It is one of those cold, crisp, blue-sky mornings when all is still, except for a couple of sky larks ...

It all came down to a couple of putts on the 18th as all major championships are supposed to. Both Lee Westwood and You-Know-Who needed to sink them to get into a playoff with Rocco Mediate, which starts at 9.00 a.m. local time tomorrow. Westwood left his a foot short, on line and went home feeling “disappointed but pleased” [with ...

While all of America will be watching the 8.06 a.m. (4.06 p.m. UK time) pairing of the world’s number one, two and three (Woods, Mickelson and Scott) the English audience will be just as concerned with the 1.14 p.m. (9.14 p.m. UK time) pairing of Ian Poulter, Paul Casey and Luke Donald. Quite apart from anything else, all three need ...

Is the Goose losing a bit of his gold? Retief Goosen has won the US Open twice and used to be one of the Big Five. For the last couple of years, however, he has been slipping down the World Rankings. Have we seen the best of the 38-year-old South African, or is there more to come? Having been in ...

Quite apart from Graeme Storm’s extraordinary Thursday, it was a great day for many of the 30 Europeans in the field. Open Champion, Padraig Harrington, has suggested on many occasions since Carnoustie that other Euros may now find it easier to win major championships, and there is already some evidence that this could be true. Lee Westwood shot a 1-under-par ...

At last it’s happened. Sergio has put off this first meeting with the press, since Carnoustie whipped his insides out, for long enough. The media have attacked him (sometimes viciously) in the last couple of weeks for whinging and whining like a 12-year-old schoolgirl ever since he lost to Padraig Harrington in a playoff. Now it was time for him ...

Phil Mickelson refused to let his wrist injury stand in his way during the first round of the US Open in Oakmont. He described his wrist as "sore, aggravating and annoying," but that "I feel OK to hit balls", blaming his rusty start on being unable to prepare properly. Mickelson was in the rough "a lot more than he wanted to be" but battled ...
