Norman to take on Ryder Cup duo in Perth

7/10/2008 11:52:00 AM.  | LIVENEWS.com.au
Australian legend Greg Norman and English stars Lee Westwood and Paul Casey will headline the 2009 Johnnie Walker Classic in Perth next February.

Westwood and Casey – both members of Europe’s Ryder Cup team – have confirmed they will play at the tournament today.

Westwood is keen to take on ‘The Shark’ for the first time in Australia since beating Norman in a fourth play-off hole to win the 1997 Australian Open.

"I'm already looking forward to playing in Perth and to the Australian sunshine which will be a welcome change from the European winter," Westwood told reporters.

"It will also be a tremendous challenge to come up against Greg again on his home soil especially after the form he showed at this year's Open Championship."
