Memphis, TN...Rifle irons played an important role for both first-time major championship winners at the U.S.
Open at Oakmaont Country Club, and the Open Championship at Carnoustie Golf Club. were in the bag of the
winners of the last two major championships. The 107th U.S. Open at Oakmont Country Club went to Rifle, and
yesterday, the 147th Open Championship challenged at Carnoustie Golf Club in Scotland as the winner found
65% of the greens in regulation finishing T3 in that category. His consistency gave him just enough opportunity
to hold off the rest of the contenders on Sunday for his first ever victory on U.S. soil. And what a venue to break
through for the three-time European Tour winner.
