One of the reasons Europe has won the last three, and five of the last six, Ryder Cup matches is 35-year-old Englishman Lee Westwood. About to compete in his sixth Ryder Cup, Westwood is quietly dominant, having amassed 15.5 points in his career which is the most of any player who will tee it up on both teams this year. He’s competed in 25 matches, overall, and, with rookies playing a huge part on both squads, Westwood’s experience could go a long way towards victory. Something to watch as the matches get underway tomorrow morning. Westwood is almost exclusively a Classics guy and, so far this week, has been wearing these all white traditional Classics Dry Premiere, as well as this new “wave” pattern which has been very popular.
