McDowell won twice in Europe this year and
lived up to the expectations originating when he
was a star at Alabama-Birmingham.
McDowell has been susceptible
to the big number, but two items sparked his recent rise: He mastered
the cut shot, which led to improved iron play, and by doing radio commentary
at the '06 Cup, he hardened his resolve to make this team.
