Monty back to his best

Colin Montgomerie insisted he was back to his best after following up his third-place finish in the French Open with a superb second round 64 at the European Open in Dublin.

The win the 44-year-old desperately wants after 19 barren months could well be just 36 holes away as the only player ahead of him at the halfway stage at the K Club is little-known Swede Pelle Edberg, ranked 460th in the world.
