MY LIFE IN PICTURES
David
Howell
The five-time European Tour
winner on the shots of his life.
Beaming at the BMW, 2006
“This was after I’d won the BMW Championship at
Wentworth. It’s a very happy but sad shot as my mum’s
no longer with us. What’s really happy for me was that
my mum and dad had separated many years before that
and that was one of the few photos I had and have of us
all as a family. Great memories and they were both very
proud of me. A prouder moment I haven’t had.”
Tiger Talk at the HSBC Champions – 2005
“That was pretty much the peak of my career to date, I think, taking
on the world number one in the final round was a massive challenge.
I had a one-shot lead and shot 68 to end up winning by three. Not
many people took Tiger on and beat him back then, so I’m very
proud of that. I can’t recall what we were laughing about but I’ve
got this photo in my house, actually, so it means a lot.”
Ryder Cup Reaction – 2004
“This is a shot from my debut Ryder Cup match, at Oakland Hills
in 2004. It was a fourball with Paul Casey against Jim Furyk and
Chad Campbell, which we narrowly won. I got trounced in my
singles match by Furyk, unfortunately, but being part of the winning
side was immense and one of my lifelong dreams. It was an amazing
sense of accomplishment and something I’m very proud of.”
