Yeah - I think he has enough points that he could probably wd today and miss the next 2 weekends and still be in the top 30 for the playoff finals.

But he would still be giving up lots of important points.
Places are converted to points for the last event,if you are in the top 5 at the end it pretty much means you win the whole thing if you win the last event.

Poor finish by Rose. 3 putt from 25 feet to finish one behind Scott.

His back seems fine after a good shot.......................................strange that

Yeah that is true - I was just highlighting that he could actually get through but like you say, even after the quasi points reset for the final- you still need to be right up there.

he was still clearly in pain after that wedge.
The way Tiger has conducted himself this week shows he doesn't care too much for the word outside his bubble.
He doesn't care what we think if he's acting the maggot.
I don't think he's putting on a show for sympathy from us.

Awful 3 putt from Rose

Benny Cake

What a great evenings golf, well done Scotty, very close Tiger!

abff

And Scott wins it...

Rikand

woodland and kuchar blew it!

RikkFlair

Jaysus....had this on when the leaders were at the 9th/10th and Chappell was -13 and Kuchar -11, some collapse by both on the back 9!

Agreed, for the 3 wood he pulled into the water, to me he looked like he completed his swing fully and then suddenly had a problem when he saw where the shot went.

I counted them showing a total 7 shots of Scott in the final round, I know it was a tightly bunched field and that he came from the pack but when we see them showing Tiger walking up to his ball and lining up his putt for a minute it's a bit frustrating

Woodland hitting that driver was one of the biggest brain farts I've seen in a long time.

I'm probably defending the indefensible here but I kiiind of saw some logic in that it would have allowed got him 20-30 yards down the fairway and allowed him to go in with a 6 or 7 iron as opposed to 4 or 5 iron hence getting more loft and being able to stop it on the ever hardening greens. In saying that though, just a par there would have got him into a playoff..

After attending yesterday, just adds more to the fire in needing to play the course. Attended a dozen events or so over the years, but that setting coupled with the layout is right up there.

Disappointing a fair few golfers faded on Sunday, was setting up for a great finish. Well, except for Kuchar who I just plain don't like :pac: A lot of people were confident Tiger was going to hold that putt at 18, real shame he didn't. Scott was a deserving winner though.

Highlight was Mickelson's round which I followed for the most part. It was special, and tbh he should have gone lower. Edged some putts early on before taking the course apart through the middle of his round.

Not sure if it was shown on TV, but the Fowler and Blixt pairing was another highlight for what Blixt wore more than anything.

Ah ****, feel like a dumbass now for rushing into the bookies before 1. Was looking forward to watching it tonight.

Has Tiger officially declared himself fit?

Surely given he's top of the standings he could afford to take this week off to rest the back. It'll be a huge ask for him to compete 4 weeks in a row.

Rory will be interesting to watch this week. A course he won on last year, if his game is coming around he should contend.

Break next week so would not 4 weeks in a row.
But he has done it in the past to not play all of the events and still contend/win so I think if he felt he absolutely needed to he probably would have taken this week off to give himself a 2 week break.

I think it's coming around alright ..
would be great to see Rory, Tiger, Scott and Phil all playing good golf come Sunday.

His back will be fine until he starts to fall apart on Monday.

SnowDrifts

I see Sky are relegating the golf coverage to the red button tonight apart from an hours coverage at 10pm by which time the majority of players will be well finished.

Even the red button coverage from 8-10 will miss most of the action today. :mad:

baboo800

Mickelson currently -7 after 9

heebusjeebus

Phil Mick is -7 after 9 holes. Can he keep it up?

EDIT: Baboo beat me to it!
