That final putt might win me 1 grand. Amazing: WTF wins a grand betting on Lefty to win a jug? I do.

This will be his 8th T-3 in a major since 2008 if he pars in. He's wasted quite a few to say the least. He should have a few chances left considering the level he's playing at, but there's something missing under pressure.

Westwood's always been in the mix the last 4-5 years... I wouldn't count him out yet. It only takes one good week. But he's about to enter Colin Montgomerie territory.

I think it will. The guy seems to have his putter squared up. The pressure got to him today. I have a lot of empathy for guys like LW. He hasn't made excuses or cried like a bitch like Monty has through the years, so I want him to do well.

Scott moved the weight up on the anchor a little too late.

I like Westwood, but there's definitely been something missing under pressure in these events. You could say the same for many major winners at one point in their careers, though.

Way to go Phil!

KC_Connection 07-21-2013 10:58 AM

If he wasn't considered as such already, Phil's definitely been the 2nd best player in the Tiger era. Gets one ahead of Els and two ahead of Vijay in majors with this win.

Damnit I woke up so early this morning, 5 am, I'm assuming it was still on then. I would have liked to watch this.

BlackHelicopters 07-21-2013 11:16 AM

Phil's gonna be drinking out of the Claret Jug tonight while Amy rides him reverse cowgirl.

Braincase 07-21-2013 11:38 AM

Nice job Lefty. Not many have the career Grand Slam.

And he doesn't either. But he should.

Jerm 07-21-2013 11:46 AM

Considering the conditions and circumstances, one of the best rounds in Major championship history.

Definitely one of the best Back 9s of all time...

OnTheWarpath15 07-21-2013 11:50 AM

That might be the best final round in a major I've ever witnessed, all things considered.

Congrats, Phil. Now go get the Grand Slam at Pinehurst next June.
