Westwood didn't 'lose sleep' over missed RC putt
It was arguably the low point on the course for the Europeans at Hazeltine, but it hasn't led to any fitful nights of rest for Lee Westwood.
The Englishman stood over a 3-foot birdie putt to halve his match during Saturday's fourball session at the Ryder Cup earlier this month, but the subsequent stroke barely caught the hole. It meant that instead of a half-point apiece, Americans Ryan Moore and J.B. Holmes scored a full point against Westwood and Danny Willett.
That, in turn, meant the Europeans trailed by three points instead of two entering Sunday's singles matches, where the U.S. rolled to a 17-11 victory.
