"Westwood is not a finisher," opined one golf writer after the Players' Championship. "Period."

A cheery person by nature, Westwood, however, continued to express confidence about his game. "While I'm disappointed, I'm pleased with myself," he told reporters. "I think that I've proved to myself and a few others that there is a major championship in me."

Westwood is married to Laurae Coltart, the sister of Scottish golfer and Westwood friend,

Andrew Coltart. Laurae and Westwood live on a large farm in Worksop, which features a 330-yard practice ground. The couple has two young children, Sam and Poppy.
