LEE WESTWOOD kisses caddie girlfriend Helen Storey after storming up the leaderboard at The Open with a second-round 67.
Westy, 46, fired a brilliant opening-round 68 at Royal Portrush and backed it up today to finish seven under as he aims to become the oldest first-time winner of a Major.
And he is doing it all with stunning girlfriend Helen on the bag.
The loved-up pair, who always share a smooch at the end of a round, have history which suggests Westy could finally end his 26-year Major wait.
Fitness fanatic Storey, a consultant who regularly posts videos of her gruelling workouts, was on the bag when Westy broke his four-year winless drought in South Africa at the end of last year.
Helen became the former world No 1’s girlfriend when his divorce to Laurae Coltart ended in a last-minute settlement that avoided a courtroom battle over his £50million fortune.
The former couple have two children together, son Sam, who also caddies for his old man, and daughter Poppy.
But it is Helen who is now more or less his full-time caddie after the Yorkshire superstar split with bagman legend Billie Foster last year.
Storey, 38, broke down in tears on the 18th when Westwood pocketed £1million in South Africa.
And she was proving a lucky charm before that.
Westwood and Foster agreed to end their ten-year association after the Turkish Airlines open – and a week later Storey was caddying for the former world No 1 as he scooped a near £1million jackpot by winning the Nedbank Challenge.
It was the third time Storey had deputised for Foster – and after a top ten finish in Dubai last year she almost celebrated victory at the Made in Denmark event, where Westwood was beaten in a play-off.
Westy cried after winning in South Africa and Storey admitted she did likewise.

She said: “Lee has had a few close calls recently – a second and a fifth – and as he was waiting to collect the trophy you could see him fighting back the tears. But it was no good me trying – the tears started to flow and I couldn’t hold them back.
“It was just so incredibly special to share that with him. I jumped into his arms on the 18th when he holed his putt because I knew how much it meant to him.
“It was hard work at times for me. That Tour bag can get pretty heavy, especially on the par fives, but it always feels a bit lighter after he’s made a birdie.”
