A little falter on the 17th .....but pulled it alltogether to play the 18th like a true champion .....
He is a deserved winner, he played a pretty solid faultless last round and held his nerve when he needed to ...
Woods however had a lacklustre day by his standards but still could have won it.....finishing 2nd when playing poorly. I bet this will have stung a bit.
Harrington ......got to feel for him, 2 weeks in a row a bad choice of play has denied him two chances to win....he looked dazed when he hit it into the water from behind the green....ronan was trying to calm him down as he looked as if he was just going to lose the plot.

Was it just me or did he should "fk, fk, fk" after missing the Par putt at the Par 3 16th?
(The sound on HD is bloody amazing!!)
I thought that Woods conducted himself very poorly - sulky and petulant that he wasn't getting his own way for once, storming off greens before Yang had putted out - quite pathetic, and a very poor example to set.
So good on Yang for looking like he was having fun, and showing some true emotion, as well as some fantastic shot making!

Spot on. Woods expletives were very clear to hear on TV and would have been to all at green side. As you say he stormed off that green before Yang putted out and did the same at the 8th after he dropped a shot. Very poor form from a man who has shown himself to be a great player and a poor sport.(The sound on HD is bloody amazing!!)

I thought it must have been the F bomb based on the stunned silence in the Sky studio, but couldn't quite believe my ears! I know Tiger does a lot for the game, but it would be an insult to Jack Nicklaus, a true sportsman, to have his record overhauled by Woods if he carries on like that.I don't think that Earl will be smiling down on him this morning.
And let's hope Paddy Harrington stops having massive blow ups in the final round!!

Kudos to all of you who had a few quid on Mr Yang.
Brilliant finish and well done to Yang. The 2nd to the 18th was out of this world considering the pressure.
Up the Yellow Man! Next "Yellow man for the American Presidency"!Brilliant finish and well done to Yang. The 2nd to the 18th was out of this world considering the pressure.
What with China coming up, this could be our century!
