Justin Roses withdrawal on Thursday through injury means Willett is the only player in the worlds top 20 to feature at Wentworth, where just 11 of the worlds top 50 are in the field.

I dont think it will change it a great deal to be honest, Willett told a pre-tournament press conference on Tuesday. Obviously coming in as Masters Champion was always a pretty big accolade.It would have been nice if Rosey [Justin Rose] would have been here to deflect a little bit of that. I think the expectations are going to be quite high from a lot of other people, but Im not really fussed about what other people are expecting.Its brilliant to be back at the BMW and Wentworth.

Willett holds a significant lead in the Race to Dubai standings Obviously your year is built around majors and World Golf Championships and this one is right in behind it in terms of trying to get it scheduled in, so that you pitch up in good form, Willett added.You cant always judge when thats going to happen, but you always look to make sure youve not played too much beforehand because its a fantastic golf event. The Englishman posted rounds of 74 and 77 over the weekend at the K Club Weve done all the bits that we need, so now we can really knuckle down and grind and try and actually play a little bit better than we have the last couple of weeks.Its a pretty special place down here at Wentworth, so hopefully we can be somewhere there or thereabouts on Sunday.Watch the BMW PGA Championship throughout the week live on Sky Sports 4 - your home of golf.
