| US OPEN PROFILE |
|
| Montgomerie ensured his place in the line-up at Pinehurst No.2 thanks to a consistent first half of the season which saw him edge back inside the world's top 50 players. Twice a runner-up in this event during the 1990s, the US Open plays very much to the strength of Montgomerie's long game with a premium on accuracy and ball-striking. It has been the putter which has hindered a chance of a return to the winner's circle so will the Scot's frustrations get the better of him on these extremely slick surfaces? |
