win by seven wickets after

final is on Sunday.

TIGER WOODS


Woods has not played
since the final round at
the US Open in June,
where he finished in a tie
for 21st. But the 43-year-
old will certainly have
done his homework as he
seeks a 16th major. ‘I’ve
never been to Portrush
and I’m looking forward
to trying to figure it out,’
says Woods, who has
played just three times
since winning the Masters
in April. ‘Hopefully I’ll get
practice rounds with
different winds to get
a feel for the course.’

BROOKS


KOEPKA


The world No.1 has won


four of the last 10 majors


and just missed out on


winning the US Open for


a third year running in


June, finishing three shots


behind Gary Woodland. It


will be a special occasion


for Koepka’s caddie,


Ricky Elliott, who is from


Portrush. ‘It’ll be awesome


for Ricky to get a major


championship in his home


town,’ says Koepka. ‘It


will be great for me, too.


Ireland is one place I’ve


never been, which is


shocking, because I’ve


been all over the world.’
