Man, Phil kills me. I love the guy and am always pulling for him but he doesn't make it easy being his fan.
He goes out and plays one of the greatest 9 holes in Masters history, has tons of momentum, and then hits an absolutely terrible shot with a short iron to a pin that he can get to with his slight cut shot. The fact that he wasn't able to make a 4 on that hole really killed the momentum he had built up. Not only that but the eagle putt on 15 was an abomination...if he makes that and only makes a 4 at the 12th than he's in the playoff.
He's going to rue that 9 iron for a long time IMO...along with the terrible bogey at 10 yesterday and the bogey at 11, two more shots he let get away.
Perry just amazed me...dude played 16 holes of great golf and then played 4 holes of completely shit golf. The two iron shots he hit at 18 and 10 during the playoff were terrible, those pins were tailor made for him. His Len Mattiace impersonation at 10 esp. was surprising, what a choke that shot was esp. after Cabrera stepped up and made it look almost too easy right after Perry ducked hooked it to the right of the green.
I love Cabrera, dude has got game and came up BIG TIME in the clutch situations. I'm kinda partial to him, followed him around a practice round at the '05 Masters and got to meet him and shake his hand, he was very nice and courteous...glad to see him win if it wasn't going to be Phil.
And one last thing, is there a more robotic and vanilla player than Chad Campbell? Dude shows ZERO emotion and acted like he was out played a Sunday round at a muni...had me shaking my head. It's the final round of the Masters FFS Mr. Roboto, no wonder you missed that 4 footer.
