Sky Sports caught up with Danny Willett ahead of the BMW PGA Championship to look back at his Masters success

Danny Willett believes there are similarities that can be found between Augusta and Wentworth, the venue for this week's BMW PGA Championship.

This week's appearance is Willett's first on home soil this week since winning at Augusta last month, where he took advantage of a back-nine collapse by Jordan Spieth to claim a three-shot victory.

Willett has only made two appearances since Masters glory, missing the cut on his return to action at the Players Championship before a tied-23rd finish in the Irish Open after a bright start to the week. 

The world No 9 heads to the European Tour's traditional flagship event as the top seed, with Willett relishing playing at a course he has previously performed well at.
