Despite his sensational 60 in Thursday's first round of the Thailand Golf Championship, Lee Westwood admitted he could have done better
Westwood - was he thinking about those missed putts?
The World No 3 from Worksop in England felt he could have shot a 59 or better in the Asian Tour's season-closing event at Amata Springs Country Club at Bangkok
The 38-year-old Englishman told the media afterwards: "I just wanted to get off to a quick start and I did that. I made a dream start but then you start thinking about 59, I guess.
"I came close but not close enough. I messed it up with a few pars!
"I missed on 11 from about 10 feet, left it short, and at 14 where I left it short in the middle (of the entrance to the hole) but you can't shoot 60 without making a few 15-20 footers and I did that today, so no complaints.
"I guess 59 is one of those numbers where if it is meant to be it is meant to be.
"It's not really a 60 course. It was a bit breezy out there. My caddie Billy Foster said he thought he had seen the best round of golf ever when I shot 62 at the Nedbank a few weeks ago, but he said that I was better today, so I am making progress!
"I have shot a few 61s and 62s but never a 60, so I will have to refocus tomorrow morning and start all over again."
