DUBAI, Nov 19 (Reuters) - Chris Wood has no regrets over ditching Lee Westwood as his partner for next week's World Cup of Golf in Australia, with the Englishman banking on his team spirit with Andy Sullivan to carry the duo to glory.
Westwood and Danny Willett, second in the European Tour money-list, were lined up to represent England at the team event in Melbourne until the latter pulled out with a back complaint, meaning Wood stepped in as the next highest-ranked Englishman.
Under tournament rules, Wood could then select his own playing partner and, instead of maintaining Westwood's place chose Sullivan - a move which, according to British media reports, left the former world number one fuming.
