    I think Lawrence was very lucky he hit the lady spectator with his tee shot, or it would have run on into a far worse position. Rory and Billy both hit the fairway.

    Lawrence has botched that 2nd shot, into a bunker. That should be him scuppered.

    Thats more like it. Not a great shot though. Off the back of the green.

    Billy Ho letting him off the hook

    Tristan in a bunker, way back. Rory off the green towards the bak and Billy in a bunker just to the right of the green.

    Lawrence into the water. Game over for him. Each shot on this hole he's played worse than the last.

    The spectators with their stupid shouting are obnoxious #####!

    Cheeky by Billy trying to play that quickly so there's some protection behind the hole



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 21,081 ✭✭✭✭sligeach


    That's a horrible bounce on Rory's chip, threw it way off line. Can't blame him for that. Still makes the birdie though. So pressure on Billy. Damnit, he got it.

    What a shot again - pure power - perfect hit



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 21,081 ✭✭✭✭sligeach


    That's a great 2nd shot from Rory. Safely on the green. Pressure on Billy. He makes the green as well.

    Someone plays stellar again to pip Rory. ..but he gave it a great go.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 34,522 ✭✭✭✭gmisk


    McIlroy looks gutted understandable, so close.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 22,005 ✭✭✭✭Mushy


    What more can you do really?



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,459 ✭✭✭big_drive


    Not much wrong from Rory there, brilliant from Horschel super putt



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 21,081 ✭✭✭✭sligeach


    Ah #### it! Billy wins with eagle on the 2nd play-off hole. These knocks of not getting over the line aren't going to do Rory's confidence any good.

    Some putt from Billy.

    Always seems to happen Rory, Tiger woods often shot 70 on Sunday to win by 3, Mcilroy never gets it easy, losing to birdie eagle in a playoff, what more can you do.

    Don’t go for the pin from 253yd with a 4 Iron on the 72nd hole



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 602 ✭✭✭iffandonlyif


    Horschel’s behaviour towards the referee is just characteristically American. I can imagine a dozen other of them talking like that.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,525 ✭✭✭DellyBelly


    This 100%...Laura Davies and wayne reilly both said that was the wrong decision...but overall you have to say this is a tournament he didn't throw away for once



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,650 ✭✭✭Benicetomonty


    The season that couldve been..

    Dubai Invitational

    Dubai Desert Classic (w)

    Zurich Classic Orleans (w)

    Wells Fargo (w)

    US Open

    Irish Open

    BMW PGA

    If ifs and buts were candy and nuts…. etc



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,567 ✭✭✭boardise


    Just a minor observation but I think it could have made a crucial difference if Billy had to putt first on the final hole ..and there can't have been much in it. Not disputing the merit of his win at all -there's no arguing with a clinching eagle.

    IIt was a superb tournament with a gripping finish ...sport at its best.
