BRITISH OPEN PROFILE
What can you say about this man except simply awesome. Woods is by far and away the best player in the world at present and heads to Muirfield having won the first two Majors of the season - the Masters and US Open. Two years ago Woods re-wrote the record books as he powered to an eight-shot win at St Andrews. Previous to that a thrilling birdie-birdie finish left Woods just one shot out of a play-off at Royal Birkdale four years ago. While only a cold putter denied him at Carnoustie in 1999 when seventh. Tiger loves the challenge of links golf and will start a strong favourite as he looks to keep his Grand Slam dream alive. Neither at the US Masters or the US Open did Tiger face a serious challenge after moving to the top of the leaderboard, and if he leads on Saturday night the famous claret jug will be all but his.
