One shot - one winner |

If David Howell had played well to win the BMW International in late summer 2004, to make that year's Ryder Cup team, his career went 'stellar' after just one shot, a 6 iron to the 17th in the second morning's foursomes at Oakland Hills, a shot which would become shot of that year and has since instilled a level of control and confidence that was all about why he won the 2006 BMW Championship - the Player's flagship at Wentworth.

The Quinn Direct British Masters 2006 - Final Day
With 10 holes to go, the 2006 Quinn Direct British Masters looked a two horse race between the last pairing of the 'Men in Black', good friends Michael Campbell and Paul Casey. They were two and four shots clear of the field respectively after each had made a birdie in the first few holes. Playing behind them was crowd favorite Darren Clarke and Johan Edfors. Clarke started with three bogeys in the first five and seemed well out of it at -7 whilst Edfors turned at -10. What was going on behind this pairing was incredible.
