G-Mac craves more Major triumphs

Ryder Cup star Graeme McDowell returns to the scene of his greatest personal triumph for the first time this week insisting his major victory at Pebble Beach will not define his career.

The Irishman is making his first appearance at the California course since 2010, when he became the first European for 40 years to win the US Open.

He will encounter a different experience at the AT&T Pebble Beach National Pro-Am but there will be also a degree of familiarity as he will be playing alongside his 10-handicapper dad Kenny, who was present nearly four years ago for that landmark win.
