Lee Westwood is grateful to his father for taking him to the golf course. Neither his father nor he had ever swung a club but turning to the course of the golf he became hooked. It was only when he turned 19 that he became a pro. But he had a handicap of 12 which was not understandable.
His father very patiently go through his lessons, was with him throughout. According to him it is his mother’s skill that has been bestowed to him. It was the PGA tour where he started his career. His mother gave him golf club set. After 30 years his dream was converted to reality. In October 2010 he reached up to the rank of number one displacing the record of Tiger Woods. In the European Tour he conquered twice the Order of Merit and taken part on eight teams of Rider Cup. It is apt if he goes to National Pro- Am of the AT&T Pebble Beach.
Westwood with his father shot at the neighborhood of Kilton Forest with 180 and on the third day cleared his birdie which was a first. Pebble Beach is significant for PGA Tour meeting. It is about patience that can acquire rounds within six hours. Two players are pro and amateur each at the Pebble Beach. For him his father has been an immense influence on him. His childhood days were the time when he learnt about the nuances of the sport.
Other players also participated in the PGA Tour at the Pebble Beach. For him the place is a magical one and his best surface where he has found success. It is also his wish that his last course should be played at the Pebble Beach itself. It is a holy place for him.
