Lee Westwood Seals Open Return After 4,700-Mile Trip From Dallas to Dundonald
- Lee Westwood secured a spot at Royal Portrush after winning the 36-hole qualifier in Scotland with a seven-under par total.
- Westwood flew in from Dallas late the night before and had never played the course before, requiring a walkaround upon arrival.
- He managed the pressure despite jet lag and only sleeping an hour and a half, with big crowds following him in the qualifier.
- At 52 years old, the ex-world number one is set to compete in The Open for the 28th time and will make his 93rd major championship appearance overall, returning to the tournament for the first time since 2022.
- Westwood’s return marks a significant step after a two-year break caused partly by his move to LIV Golf, which limited his qualifying chances.
