US MASTERS PROFILE
As a 10-year-old, Howell once shot 79 at Augusta National and his love affair with the Masters has grown ever since. He was born a stone's throw from the course and would dearly love to own a Green Jacket. Unfortunately, his appearances around the magnolias have been less than spectacular, a 13th in 2004 his best effort and he goes there on the back of missed cuts in the last two years, totalling 164 in the first two rounds in 2006. But after bursting onto the tour with victory at the Michelob as a 23-year-old, he then went more than four years without another triumph until he won the Nissan Open three weeks after chasing Tiger Woods home in the Buick Invitational. He played solidly at Doral and at last comes into his favourite tournament in top form.
