G-Mac targets Claret Jug

Graeme McDowell can’t wait for another thrilling major championship rollercoaster ride and he’s already setting his sights on the Claret Jug following his gutsy runner-up finish in the US Open at The Olympic Club.

The 2010 champion battled back bravely from a nightmare start and gave himself a chance to force a Monday play-off with shock winner Webb Simpson only to see his 24-foot birdie putt at the last slip by the hole.

But after finishing tied for second with Michael Thompson, just a shot behind the winner, he’s all but sealed his third Ryder Cup appearance in Chicago in September and now knows he has the game to win more Majors.
