IN-FORM Simon Dyson will be hoping for another full English in the last major of the season, writes Tony Kelly.

The York-born golf ace opens his USPGA Championship at Kiawah Island as part of the third last threesome to go out on the Ocean Course.

He will be partnered by American tour veteran Scott Verplank, whose career has been dogged by injury and diabetes, and South Korea’s K J Choi, at 42-years-old six years the junior of the American.

For Dyson, the USPGA Championship has been his most successful of the four majors.

While he was ninth in The Open at Royal St George’s last year, the Malton & Norton Golf Club star was sixth in the USPGA Championship in 2007 and 12th in the same major two years ago.

On each occasion he was the highest-placed Englishman in the star-studded field, so a now fully-fit Dyson will be hoping to at least match that distinction over the next four days as he seeks a customary strong finish to a competitive year, which has been marred by injury.
