Graeme McDowell ready for Open challenge

Graeme McDowell believes the Royal Lytham course "sets up well" for his game.

McDowell played a practice round with defending champion Darren Clarke and his fellow Rathmore club member, British Amateur winner Alan Dunbar on Tuesday morning.

"I'm happy with my game and feel I'm really getting the hang of what I'm trying to do," added McDowell.
