Winner: Graeme McDowell
Around the wider world of golf: Not much this week, as we're entering the so-called "Silly Season." Arnond Vongvanij won the King's Cup on the Asian Tour; Pornanong Phatlum won the Hero Women's India Open on the LAGT; and Martin Kaymer won the Nedbank Golf Challenge.
I may begin calling Graeme McDowell "Irish Ice" because he's were given ice water running via his veins when the stress is on, yet he always seems to be smiling. He absolutely is aware of a way to close out a match once he gets the lead.
Granted, he hasn't been too impressive as a closer this season. (The final seasons, in fact.) He's long gone thru system changes, injuries, a few swing adjustments, relocation, engagement, and a enterprise begin-up... And now he seems to have all of it working once more. He confirmed symptoms in advance in the season with some right finishes in majors, however he just could not seem to get 'er done.
This week, simplest Keegan Bradley changed into able to project him... However he just didn't have sufficient to wipe the smile from those Irish eyes. He simply couldn't maintain tempo with the person who grew up playing in damp weather -- a person who, by way of the manner, has racked up wins and a runner-up finish in his handiest three begins at Tiger's tourney.
Graeme can be taking around ten weeks off -- he nonetheless has commercial enterprise issues and such to take care of, as well as simply desiring a holiday. But 2013 in reality appears brilliant for him, and this week's Limerick Summary celebrates his victory in addition to my new nickname for him.
