OPEN PROFILE
Furyk made his Open debut at Lytham five years ago and finished a respectable tied 44th. But at Troon 12 months later and then at Birkdale in 1999 he hinted that his first major title could come this side of the Atlantic. His weird swing seems to hold up well in windy conditions so he won't mind it at all if his trouser legs are flapping. Having gained a reputation as one of the most consistent players in the game it was baffling to see him shoot 82 in the final round of the US Open last month. In truth he's not quite firing on all cylinders having failed to make the top 20 in his last six starts but it would be no surprise if he features high on the leaderboard again this week.
