They say overnight success can take 10-20 years. The line could have been invented for Lee Westwood.
But it applies to English golf in general, still searching for a first major winner for 14 years since Nick Faldo was supposed to have inspired a generation.
Major success may be taking its time coming, but with three Englishmen in the world's top 10, and two of those - Westwood and Ian Poulter - leading the Masters at halfway, relative success is already here.
Westwood admits, only half in jest, that he has "always been a slow learner" but his is a career that could define the term "slow burner".
