After his impressive win in the UBS Hong Kong Open just last week, Ian Poulter really is in impeccable form. A solid 14 under par score earning him a play off spot. Falling at the last hurdle after accidentally dropping his ball on his "lucky" diamond encrusted ball marker, causing it to flip up costing him a 1 stroke penalty, and eventually the play off. Awarding Robert Karlsson the Dubai World Championship top spot.
As disappointed as he may be for not making it back-to-back tournament wins, Ian Poulter should be able to take some positives away with him.The most important I feel, is that he can hold his head high after the honesty and integrity he showed after calling his own penalty after his mishap. Showing the whole world that British golf is clean, with honesty and integrity an affluent part of today's game.
Advancing to number six in the world rankings, Ian Poulter is showing the world he is the man to watch. Although with impressive and solid performance from Lee Westwood (-13), Rory McIlroy (-12), and Paul Casey (-11), Ian Poulter really has got his work cut out at the Chevron World Challenge.
