Louis Oosthuizen looks to overcome close calls on Sunday at The Open
Louis Oosthuizen takes 54-hole lead at The Open
SANDWICH, England – They call him King Louis but of late he’s been more of a prince.
Come Sunday at The 149th Open Championship, Louis Oosthuizen has the chance to earn the title once more, fittingly at Royal St. George’s, where he takes a one-shot lead into the final round.
Legend has it that Saint George tamed and slayed a dragon. Oosthuizen’s proverbial dragon is his near misses.
Since winning the 2010 Open at St. Andrews, Oosthuizen has finished second in six majors and THE PLAYERS Championship without winning another PGA TOUR event. Two of those close calls happened in the last two majors – the PGA Championship in May and the U.S. Open in June.
