Morikawa wants more after Open triumph

-

Collin Morikawa’s ambition has no limits after the 24-year-old sealed his second major with a flawless display on Sunday to win the British Open on debut.

The American finished on 15 under par to hold off compatriot Jordan Spieth as a crowd of 32,000 spectators at Royal St. George’s were treated to a titanic battle for the Claret Jug.

Those in attendance may look back on Morikawa’s performanc­e as a landmark moment for the world No.4, who now has a pair of major titles to his credit in just over two years as a profession­al. “I’ve had belief in myself since turning pro that I can do it,” said Morikawa.

“When it’s coming to these tournament­s, courses and styles that I have never played, I do my homework Monday to Wednesday to know what I need to do.”
