However, the all-England final was also significant because it demonstrated the growing strength of English golf at the elite level. Just look at the numbers- A decade ago, there were only 2 Englishmen in the Top 100 in the World Golf Rankings. Today, Lee Westwood, Ian Poulter and Paul Casey form numbers 4, 5 and 6 in the World Golf Rankings respectively.

In Poulter’s own words, this English surge “has been a long time coming”.
