Will he cruise to victory? Will he bottle it again?

77-72 = 149

Ouch, another collapse could well shaft his Major career.

I don't have Sky so I haven't seen any coverage. Have they mentioned Gil Morgan's 1992 collapse? 12 under seven holes into his third round, finished at 4 under that day and followed it up with an 81

I would go with something similar. Just watched the highlights of his previous rounds though, and some of the shots he played to the greens only have to be a cheeky bit off and he will be in trouble. I think if he plays a little more conservatively, he will be fine.

It's either 71-71, or 68-78, and he wins by 2.

Mark of a true champion that. Coming back from such a humiliating capitulation so suddenly and so emphatically. I worried for him but good on him.

Great victory from the young lad. With Tiger out of the way, he has the chance to make himself into the next big thing now.

He was superb. He must have been under huge pressure after his collapse at Augusta but he played top golf throughout.

I was under similar pressure at The Annual last year at The Warwickshire, but it is amazing what the human body can endure under such circumstances. I think the call I put into young Rory on Saturday evening, explaining how I got through the last few holes, helped no end.

He was only playing the US Open. I think the FISO Annual is a bit bigger and more select than the open. That's what those taking part say anyway

Yes. I was trying to get hold of Jason Day to ask how he played 45 consecutive holes without dropping a shot.

:lol: Well if you do get to speak to him, tell him to cut out his annoying pre-shot routines - he is getting as bad as Sergio! :roll:
