English Golfers are like buses…

…you wait an age for one to win a tournament and then three win in the space of a few weeks. Luke Donald, Justin Rose and Lee Westwood have all won tournaments. I feel that myself and colleagues in work have contributed in some way to this as each of them have been on the receiving end of adverse comments. “Choker” has been mentioned along with “promised much over the years but as usual has not delivered”. Lee Westwood has found a rich seam of form and deserved his victory over the weekend. A British prospect for US Open I feel although paired with Tiger will be a good test. Justin Rose and Luke Donald were, as usual in the British press lauded as the next great golfers in Britain. This however, was at least 6 years a go and very little has happened. I am pleased for them that recently things look like they could be changing.  The true test of a great golfer will be their ability to maintain consistency over a number of years. Can they do it? Only time will tell but it is encouraging in this Ryder Cup year to see form from some British golfers. On a personal note it would be good to see some Scottish golfers showing the same promise.
