Can't understand why the other guy laid up in front of the green.

he hit the same club as before and it carried to the green according to Oost. It just didn't carry as far. There are a couple of reasons why this could happen. He might have been 1 mph slower in swing speed or the more likely scenario was the sun was going down and the simple explanation is the temperature could have lost just a couple of degrees or the sun was not heating the air as it was going down and that could affect how long the ball goes. Hit a ball in the middle of the afternoon and one on the verge of sunset and I bet you lose 5-7 yards.

But I was fascinated by the last few holes and the sudden-death.

Good for Bubba. I was hoping he'd win.

Never took a lesson???
