Ohh my god what an end to regulation in this tourney. Those putts Phil and Keegs just dropped were sick. And birdies on a Par 4 that was playing at a 4.4 average this week

And on inconsistent greens too! I think they said Phil only had a 9% chance of making his and Keegs had a 20% chance of making his. Just an unreal tournament

It was a great finish and also showed that playing it safe isnt always a bad move. Nice job Billy Haas!!

Very good point. Maybe the other 2 should have followed suit. The pin was at a place where you couldn't hold the green where they were shooting from. If they play down below the hole they may have had a better chance.

Could Dustin Johnson have a worse short game? If he could chip and putt he would make a million more dollars

The Accenture Match Play starts Wednesday. One of my favorite non-major tourneys in golf! Cant wait. Hoping for some good late round pairings (Fri, Sat and Sun).

Rory has a one shot lead right now as he plays the 7th at the Honda Classic. A win will vault him to the No.1 in the world position. Woods is on a TEAR today at -5 through 11 (-7 overall), but he is still 4 shots back. Mcilroy has a tough up and down on the 7th.

Makes the eagle putt and Tiger is in at 10 under. Final round 62. McIlroy still 2 strokes ahead.

Oh and Tiger could have been EVEN lower today. He had MULTIPLE putts that he lipped or just missed. It could have been historic.
