Had he made half of the 4 or 5 I saw him miss, the end result of the tournament may have been very different. And had he had the Eagle like he usually gets in the final round of majors he wins or at least gets very close to winning, I think he would have won. But he "made nothing" today. Call it what you will, but one might argue that Tiger choked as much as Phil did today.
I agree totally. Tiger had a great shot to put himself in the clubhouse at 2 or 3 under which would have totally changed the way those guys played down the stretch. And had he put himself in at 4 under he probably wins.
