He was the planet's hottest - can Graeme regain his world-beating form?
Odds: [46.0]
Last five Opens: 23/34/19/mc/61
Given the extensive experience of links golf that McDowell will have gained in his youth, learning the game at courses like Royal Portrush, his record in links tournaments is surprisingly moderate. He's only once made the top-ten in eight attempts at the Dunhill Links, and never achieved that target in the Open. Further concern for Gmac supporters lies in a failure to register a top-ten anywhere since the beginning of March, although his odds have drifted accordingly. We should remember that six months ago, he was probably the hottest player on the planet.
