After a quarter in :22 flat .. and a half in :43.3 ... Tiger's lead narrows to one length ... as he hits the 6f marker in 1:08.2 ... his pace has slowed ... and the field closes in ...
... but wait ... Tiger rouses himself and finds another gear ... Sergio does his Lost In The Fog imitation and breaks in pieces like a piņata ... DiMarco gives it his best and hangs in gamely ...
... and as they go under the wire ... it's Tiger ridden out by two ... in 1:34.1 ... not a track raecord ... but more than good enough for another G1 win.
Sergio claims foul ... based on the wind, the sun, the moon ... and the guy with the cell phone ... but the stewards are having high tea ... and pay no attention.
The result is OFFICIAL.
