While Retief Goosen implicated that Tiger Woods may have been feigning the severity of his knee injury on the way to his US Open victory, third placed finisher Lee Westwood was quick to jump to the American golfer's defence.
It's a bit surprising really. He could have claimed 'yeah, that makes sense, because I'd normally beat golfers with one leg.'
Instead he supported the world number one. "He played in pain but he did a very good job of hiding it. It was obviously worse than we all thought," the Englishman said refusing to be drawn on the South African's comments.
Westwood returns to action at the Open de France, but will he be Lee-ving with the title? Thurs 7am SS1.
