CHARLIE MULQUEEN: G-Mac says Masters setback was motivation at Heritage

A class act.

Those words came readily to mind when Graeme McDowell held off Webb Simpson in a sudden death play-off for the Heritage Classic at Hilton Head on Sunday evening.

Triumphalism is not part of the Irishman’s repertoire and the manner in which he accepted the victory by genuinely consoling his luckless opponent spoke volumes for G-Mac, who has now jumped back up to eighth in the world rankings.
