Westwood insists he deserves No 1 golf spot

Lee Westwood yesterday insisted he was a worthy World No 1 and said he was sick of being asked about failing to win a Major, after some experts queried his right to the top ranking.

The Englishman moved back to golf's No 1 spot by winning the Indonesian Masters on Sunday, although he had to rely on fellowu00a0 countryman Luke Donald's stumble at the US PGA Heritageu00a0Tournament.

Some American columnists ufffd along with England's six-time Major-winner and ex-world number one Nick Faldo ufffd have queried the ranking system as Westwood and Donald, neither of whom have won a Major, vie for the top slot.

Westwood said: "The only thing that gets to me about answering that question is the amount of times I have to answer it, it gets on my nerves.

"I've had a lot of chances to win Majors recently and it just hasn't happened.

"The world rankings are about consistency and playing well week-in, week-out, which I tend to do."
