Lee Westwood is currently one of the most important names in golf who has never won a Major championship. Now, the pride from Worksop is 50 years old and the task seems really complicated to achieve. Though he left the PGA Tour, he still has a shot.
Overall, it’s been just an unfortunate series of events for Westwood. At The Masters, he finished twice in second place (2010 and 2016). At the US Open, he was third on two occasions (2008 and 2011). In The Open Championship, he was second in 2010 and he also got a third place in the PGA Championship (2009).
