Louis Oosthuizen says he is targeting multiple Major titles following his Open Championship success and will head into the final major of 2010 (Oosthuizen 66/1 to win USPGA Championship) full of confidence.
The South African surprised the golfing world with his success at St Andrews last month, with his good form continuing since then.
Oosthuizen followed up his success at the Open with a fourth-placed finish at the Scandinavian Masters, before finishing ninth at the WGC-Bridgestone Invitational last week.
The 27-year-old finished the WGC event strongly, with rounds of 68 and 65 on the final two days, and will play alongside Masters champion Phil Mickelson and US Open winner Graeme McDowell (Oosthuizen 9/4, Mickelson 5/4, McDowell 15/8 – 1st round 3-ball Betting) for the first two rounds of this week’s major.
Oosthuizen (South Africa 9/1 Winning Nationality) admits winning at St Andrews has given him ‘confidence’ and says he wants a ‘second and then third’ major title.
Speaking about this week’s challenge, the world number 18 said: “I’ve not heard much about the course other than it is tough and windy.
“The windy part I like and I am looking forward to seeing Whistling Straits for the first time.”
