Westwood wins award

Lee Westwood has been named the European Tour Golfer of the Month for September.

The Ryder Cup star followed three top 10 finishes with a five-stroke victory in the Quinn Direct British Masters at The Belfry.

He was an impressive 45 under par, with 14 of his 16 rounds played in par or better. That included his joint career-best 61 in the opening round of the Mercedes-Benz Championship in Cologne.
