Lee Westwood produced a very strong showing at Dundonald Lynx to book his place at the Open. Lee Westwood made light of jet lag to book his return to the Open following a two-year absence after winning his qualifier in Scotland. However, his former Rder Cup and current live golf teammate Ian Poulter and his son Luke and Portrait Exus Open champion Graeme McDow all came up short in their bids to make the final major of the year. Westwood, 52, who has played in golf’s oldest championship 27 times previously, finished top at Dundonald Lynx after posting seven under for 36 holes. He had flown in from Dallas, where he had been competing in Sunday’s live golf event. “I’ve been up since 1 this morning with jet lag, so I was starting to feel it,” said Westwood, whose move to the Saudi Arabia breakaway series removed his chances of qualifying for majors through regular tour events. I haven’t tried to qualify for the last couple of years for one reason or another. Royal Portrait is a fantastic golf course and I played well there last time. Finished fourth in 2019, so that was another reason to come and play. The Open Championship is the greatest tournament on the golfing calendar. I’m not getting any younger. I’m 52 now. Palter at least finished the day with some pride intact as having trailed Luke all day in the scoring finished level with his 21-year-old son on one under. Luke followed an opening 67 with a 76 at Royal Sink ports in Kent with his dad shooting 72 to 71 as they and McDow finished just short. I played good on the first 18, the last 18 not great, said Luke. Lev golfer Dean Burmeister topped the leaderboard at Royal Sinkports after a brilliant 8 under second round 64 lifted him to 10 under. That was three better than Nathan Kimsey whose professional golfer girlfriend Lauren Taylor won the 2011 women’s amateur at Portric and Curtis Knights who qualified for the 2019 Open.
