Sergio Garcia, the title favourite in the absence of injured world number one Tiger Woods, said on Tuesday he had never felt better prepared for a British Open.

"I feel like my game is probably as good as it''s ever been," the world number seven told reporters. "I obviously feel good with my game and feel good with myself.

"I feel like I''m getting better as a player every tournament. I''m learning more things about myself."

Garcia, beaten by Ireland''s Padraig Harrington in a playoff at the 2007 British Open, has never won any of the top four prizes in golf but he said his Players Championship victory in Florida in May felt comparable to a major win.

"The strength of the field, the difficulty of the course, the conditions, it really felt like a major," said the 28-year-old Spaniard.

"The winning score was like a major and for us (players) it feels like the fifth major. We all know it''s not but it''s one of the biggest tournaments we play all year."
