In-form Westwood confirmed for Irish Open
Westwood, fourth in the world rankings, has happy memories of his time on Irish soil after winning back-to-back European Open titles at The K Club (1999 and 2000) and was undefeated as part of Ian Woosnam’s victorious European Ryder Cup team at the same venue in 2006, contributing four points.
Westwood bids to follow in the footsteps of fellow Englishman Nick Faldo, who won the Irish Open on the previous occasions it was held at Killarney, in 1991 and 1992.
