(Reuters) - American Jimmy Walker makes a rare European appearance this week when he takes on the challenge of the tough Royal Aberdeen links course for the Scottish Open and he has not just come to make up the numbers.

"I didn't come over here to dink it around for two or four days," he told the European Tour website (www.europeantour.com) on Tuesday. "I'm here to play well and win."
