Padraig Harrington was one of several big names to miss the halfway cut

Rory McIlroy endured a horrid second round 80, which knocked him out of contention for the Claret Jug

His main challenger for the title was England's Paul Casey, but he could not get near Oosthuizen on the final day

In the end, Lee Westwood ended up in second spot, seven shots back
-
Louis Oosthuizen tees off at the famous 18th at St Andrew's with an insurmountable lead
