Westwood delighted with US PGA invite

Lee Westwood, currently 209th in the world, has been invited to take part in next month’s US PGA championship.

“For the last seven years I’ve not required an invitation and to receive one now when I have not automatically qualified is a very big confidence-booster,” said the former European number one and world number four, who three weeks ago had his first top 10 finish in almost two years.
