OPEN PROFILE
The Swede's rapid rise into the world's top ten makes him someone to watch in every big event nowadays even though he's still relativey inexperienced at this level. This is just Stenson's 10th start in a major and he's still to crack the top 10 although he's shown plenty of signs of promise including a tied 17th at Augusta in April. Stenson shot a 69 at Carnoustie in the 2005 Dunhill Links so has shown he can navigate this track and having made the cut in his last two Open starts this could be the year when he really kicks on.
