European golf is on a high at the moment so what does Paul Krishnamurty make of this quartet’s chances? “In my view, Casey will be one of the men to beat at the forthcoming US Masters, and he could well retain his Houston Open title a week earlier. However, I’m less optimistic about this week’s course debut at PGA National, as it seems a course less suited to Casey’s power game.” With six Europeans in the world’s top-ten and an all-English final at the recent WGC Matchplay , it’s clear European golf has never been stronger . There is one glaring shortcoming though, insofar as since the beginning of 2009, Europeans have won just three strokeplay titles on the PGA Tour . Ignoring longshot Martin Laird’s Fall Series victory, the last strokeplay success for one of our Ryder Cup stars came last May when Henrik Stenson won the Players’ Championship . There will be few better opportunities to correct that statistic than this week’s Honda Classic, as the field lacks the world’s three leading American players – Tiger Woods, Phil Mickelson and Steve Stricker. So here’s a look at the prospects of the four European representatives from the world’s top-ten.
