Gary Woodland hopes to prove an inspiration after scoring an emotion-charged Houston Open triumph as Australia's golf aces found some timely pre-Masters form.
Two and a half years after undergoing surgery to remove a brain tumor, Woodland soaked in a special five-shot victory after closing with a cruisy three-under-par 67 at Memorial Golf Club.
Never threatened, the American reached 21 under for the championship to comfortably hold off Dane Nicolai Hojgaard, who could only manage a Sunday one-over 71.
