Ian Poulter and Graeme McDowell discuss one another's golfing traits ahead of the Zurich Classic of New Orleans.

Ian Poulter and Graeme McDowell are two of the most experienced professionals on tour but how do each other's characteristics on and off the course compare?

The European Ryder Cup stalwarts have partnered up for this week's Zurich Classic of New Orleans on the PGA Tour and have both enjoyed great success during their career.

Poulter and McDowell caught up with Sky Sports' Tim Barter for an amusing reflection on each other's traits, from early rising to who would be the better politician!

McDowell admits his counterpart is better in "most departments", making reference to Poulter's first PGA Tour strokeplay title at the Houston Open earlier this month, while Poulter self-described himself as marmite.

When talk turned to who might be best suited to the role of a member of parliament Poulter proved the winner due to his salesman qualities but McDowell remains the major champion out of the two!
