Lee Westwood won the Dubai World Championship here on Sunday to make him Europe no 1 player. He carded the new course record of  eight under 64 for a total 23 under par. Starting the with a 2 shots lead over Ross McGowan, Lee made no mistake through the whole 18 holes from tee to the green with all 100% fairway hits and green in regulation.

It is hard to find anyone who is so much in focus other than Tiger Wood but Lee showed that he too can be very as good as the best leaving everyone in the field with 6 shots. Next year it will be interesting to see if the Englishman can win a major championship and hopefully the British Open or the US Open.

World No. 2 Phil Mickelson won the 2009 HSBC Championship by beating the world best including his playing partner world no. 1 Tiger Woods. It was one of the most interesting final day round in any competition with Woods lost 3 shots with a double and a bogey in the front nine before making charge later at the back nine, but it was a little too late for the world no. 1.

It was the big easy Ernie Els the top favourite at the final hole but he like what he did before hit his 2nd shot to the par 5 into the water and ended up bogey hoping that Phil will make mistake for a play off. Phil Kickelson proved that luck was on his side despite some amateur type of shot at the 16th where his 64 degree wedge went through the club but managed to save par for a putt outside the green. He needed just to par the 18th to take the championship.

Nick Watney and Ryan Moore was among the 2 relatively unknown players who managed to put a good fight with the world top rank players. We will sure to see more from the 2 americans and probably they will be in the team at the next Ryder cup.
