Graeme McDowell’s winning US Open clubs

Graeme McDowell has made it a terrific clean sweep for the majors so far in 2010 for Callaway with a steely victory at Pebble Beach in the US Open.

The Northern Irishman has continued a sterling year for Callaway with a second major victory following fellow staff player Phil Mickelson’s Masters’ win.

Mickelson also challenged at the top of the leaderboard in California, as did a third Callaway player Ernie Els.

But it was McDowell who held his nerve to clinch victory with a cool par 5 on the 18th hole to win by one stroke from Frenchman Gregory Havret.

McDowell averaged 303 yards off the tee during the four days and hit two thirds of all fairways. He claimed this was a major factor in his victory and added: “I’ve never been the longest hitter in the world but I’ve certainly put on yardage in the last year. I’ve always been good off the tee accuracy-wise and the US Open has always been a tournament I feel like my game is most suited to.”

He also proved himself a maestro on very difficult greens all week averaging just 27.5 putts per round – including 15 birdies and a number of terrific par saves while others were shedding shots.

He added: “My putter was kind to me this week. I putted good this week, I felt good on the greens and when I had opportunities I generally took them. It helped me make a lot of birdies.”
