Former world number one Lee Westwood wants to focus fully on his golf again this season after being distracted by a painful split from wife Laurae in 2015.

"I'm going through a divorce and found it nearly impossible to concentrate on golf," Westwood told ESPN.co.uk in an interview. "How I played didn't really concern me but now I'm back living in the UK permanently and trying to factor in when I see my two kids and which events I play around that. "I just want to get some consistency back in my game and start to enjoy it again," said Westwood, who opened his Dubai Desert Classic campaign with a disappointing three-over-par 75 on Thursday.
