Water woe for Westwood

Fortune did not favour the brave at The Belfry when defending champion Lee Westwood finally began his third round in the Quinn Insurance British Masters today.

After another long fog delay and a decision by the European Tour not to go for a shotgun start – both the promoter and BBC Television wanted that to get the leaders back in action as soon as possible – it was 4.05pm before Westwood teed off again.
