Cmmon, the best 2 golfers in the world both blew it today. End of story.
Ones got 14 and the other has 3, but one can easily argue both guys should have won this today.

That crap about A game, B game, C game is so overdone. Why only for Tiger? Does Phil not have an A, B and C game?

Maybe he choked but he putted bad all week... its not like he was lighting it up like Phil all week and missed some easy ones at the end.

Basically it comes down to Phils a proven choker where Tiger is a proven winner. One day of bad putting when he had a whole week of bad putting isnt "choking" to me. Its not like he folded under pressure (thats choking to me) he just didnt bring his putter with him at all this week. Big difference in my mind. Hey I'm sure Tiger things he choked beginning on Thursday. He choked all four rounds and still finished 6th.

But hey you can believe whatever you want!
