Monty wants to win on Merit

COLIN MONTGOMERIE has space in his cabinet for one more Order of Merit trophy - and believes he is finally ready to fill it.

Montgomerie had a special display made to house his seven Harry Vardon trophies for winning the money list between 1993 and 1999, with a gap left for number eight.

It looked as though that space would remain empty when the Scot slumped to 28th in Europe in 2003 and 25th last year, a traumatic divorce and the advancing years taking a heavy toll on his game.
