Then missed about a 4 foot par putt on 18, shorter than Monty's bogey putt and certainly shorter than Ogilvy's par putt. People are gagging raving about the Monty and Phil chokes, but in my mind Furyk was worse than both of them.
Furyk was the real choker of the day, not those other two. Furyk is going scot free in this mess. His display was the worst of all. Putting is where choking occurs, not full swing shots. Furyk's putting was abysmal the last three or four holes. Monty had to try to make his par putt on 18, he couldn't assume Phil was going to bogey.
Worst choke of the day, was quite obviously Furyk, not the other two.

I completeley forgot about that. The putt he left short was a riot, I thought I was looking at me putting. Use your purse next time Alice! Then the short putt he read.......and read.......and read again on 18 and still missed, you could almost see his knees knocking.
