Monty confident of first Major

Jun 21 2006

COLIN Montgomerie insists he can still win a major and heads to next month's Open at Hoylake full of confidence despite his last-hole collapse in the US Open on Sunday.

"I wouldn't enter otherwise. I would have given up this game a long time ago," he said.

"I'm going to Hoylake to the Open next month full of confidence. It is tight off the tee and you have to position your ball from the drive. The greens are pretty flat so it should suit me."
