Petterson starting from scratch

Carl Pettersson insists last week's stunning win at the RBC Canadian Open is "over and done with" as he prepares to take his momentum into the Greenbrier Classic.

The Swede was left sweating on the cut mark in Ontario - and drinking away his nerves - at one under par before a spectacular third round of 60 catapulted him into contention and a closing 67 completed a single-stroke win.

"Last week was a weird week - just making the cut, then shooting 60 and winning," he said. "I knew I had a chance on Sunday but until then I was just trying to make the cut on Friday."

Pettersson put away several beers while awaiting news of the cut mark, and he sheepishly recalled: "I was there with Jay Williamson, he was one under as well and said 'grab a beer'.

"I had one too many, I don't normally do that - it worked last week but I don't think it'll work again this week."

The 32-year-old was non-committal over the boost provided by his fourth career win on the PGA Tour, and said: "After my first win I played great the next week and had a chance to win at the Viking Classic, but other times I've missed the cut after a win.

"Sometimes it's still there, other times it's totally left you so I don't know what to expect.

"It can change from day to day, never mind week to week. It's a new tournament, last week is over and done with and I'll get back to work."
