Louis Oosthuizen easily wins the British Open

I can honestly say I have never heard of Louis Oosthuizen until this British Open. Oosthuizen (pronounced WUHST’-hy-zen) easily beat out the field and won the Major tournament by 7 strokes. The golfing world hasn’t seen this kind of domination since Tiger Woods used to consistently do it about 10 years ago.

Coming into the tournament, the 27-year-old Oosthuizen had only made the cut once in his last eight majors and only 1 European Tour win. By winning the Open, Oosthuizen pockets $850,000 pounds, gets a 5 year exemption on the PGA Tour and a 10 year exemption for all majors.

Tiger Woods finished 13 stokes back of Oosthuizen and was tied for 23rd. Woods just hasn’t been the same since his comeback. Has he lost his mojo?
