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
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.
Great putt there after thr horrible bounce
Billy cranky old bollix on ref - just doing his job. Clown.
THese kids asking for stuff gone very aggressive.

Perfectly struck
Majestic
What a shot again - pure power - perfect hit
That's a great 2nd shot from Rory. Safely on the green. Pressure on Billy. He makes the green as well.
Some golf from both
Some up and down from Billy
Someone plays stellar again to pip Rory. ..but he gave it a great go.
McIlroy looks gutted understandable, so close.
What more can you do really?
Not much wrong from Rory there, brilliant from Horschel super putt
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
Horschel’s behaviour towards the referee is just characteristically American. I can imagine a dozen other of them talking like that.
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
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
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.

you observe lowry's behaviour in British open. Missed that ,did you?
I did miss it, and I deplore it.
Fair enough. At least you're not one of the footballification golf fans of which we have many.
