Westwood Get a Pain from His Calf Injury

Three days after enjoying another Ryder Cup victory

, Lee Westwood hurt himself a third of the way into the round at Kingbarns, which, along with Carnoustie and the Old Course at St Andrews, is one of the three courses being use for this celebrity pro-am event.

The 37-year-old battled on to score a two-under-par 70, only four off the lead, but immediately went off for treatment and to consult his physical trainer Steve McGregor on the telephone.

"I felt it coming off the seventh tee," said Westwood, who will end Woods's reign with a first or second place finish on Sunday.

The Ryder Cup was Westwood's first competitive golf since August 6 because of the problem and he added: "Playing two weeks in a row was probably too much in hindsight.

"I can't load my right side. I just want to get off it as quickly as possible."

Westwood added: "I've got my compression and ice machine with me and I'll see the guys in the tour physio unit, then give Steve a ring. I was playing great before the injury and I've not had a chance to practise."

"That's frustrating in itself. I'm just not able to work hard. I was advised not to flog myself last week and although I didn't have to play five games it was four on a hilly, heavy course.

"Steve said it wouldn't be right for six months."

"I don't want to be stupid, that's the problem. I made a mistake going to the Bridgestone."

He pulled out on the second day in Akron, where he also had an opportunity to dethrone Woods.

"I should have stopped after the Open. I didn't rest it when I should have done.

"It's difficult because I've never been injured before and don't know how careful I've got to be, but if it had happened yesterday I would have pulled out. I think Steve would like me to take a rest. If I keep coming back and it's not right and all I can do is rehab away from the course I don't think I'm being fair to myself, to be honest."
