Sergio Returns To Carnoustie

July 17, 2007

When last we saw Sergio Garcia at Carnoustie, he was crying in his mother’s arms after a first round 89.

It’s a safe bet that won’t happen again. He’s now an experienced player on the world scene and still has to be considered a threat at the Open—in spite of having failed to live up to his enormous potential. I think that, like Phil Mickelson, he’s just a good round or two away from breaking through and winning that first Major.

The Daily Record has a nice feature on the swashbuckling Spaniard.
