Westwood played the last time in U. S. Open at Pebble Beach, has become a commendable fifth place, but it was the year when Tiger Woods stunned the world record by finishing 15 shots before the two tied for second place , Ernie Els and Miguel Angel Jimenez. Westwood made it even better in 2008, Torrey Pines, this time finishing third behind Woods missing the playoffs, a single line.
Phil Mickelson is still trying to conquer the world No 1 ranking from Tiger Woods. Woods tries to cling to its position as No. 1 when it returns to where his greatest triumph, golf, Pebble Beach, which beat the field by 15 points in the amazing 2000 U.S. Open.
