Clarke struggles as Westwood gets snappy

Unbeaten as Ryder Cup partners last year and inseparable on tour for years, Lee Westwood and Darren Clarke went their separate ways on the leaderboard in the first round of the Austrian Open today.

While Westwood was "fairly irritated" with a five-under-par 66 which threatened to be so much better, Clarke's two over par 73 left him facing an uphill struggle to avoid missing a sixth halfway cut in succession.
