Well done that man, I wonder if the press will give him the credit he deserves.



Graeme McDowell became Europe's first US Open champion for 40 years when he clinched his maiden major title in impressive fashion at Pebble Beach. The Northern Irishman won by one shot from France's Gregory Havret with Ernie Els two behind in third and Phil Mickelson and Tiger Woods tied fourth.
McDowell, 30, came from three shots behind overnight as third-round leader Dustin Johnson imploded early on.
England's Tony Jacklin was the last European winner at Hazeltine in 1970.
"It's an absolute dream come true, I've dreamed about this all my life," said McDowell, who won his fifth European Tour title in Wales two weeks ago.
