Golf: Westwood unlikely to appear at Augusta

Lee Westwood was looking like a non-starter in the Masters this week as he waited at home for his wife Laura to give birth.

The baby is due on Saturday and Europe's number one last season has said there is no way he will leave for America without becoming a father first.

Even if the child arrived overnight there had to be a question mark about the 27-year-old travelling to Augusta so soon after the birth.
