Look at the U.S Open last year. That's absolutely a case of Rocco not having the power to take care of business on the 18th hole. It totally determined the winner of that tournament. He couldn't overcome that.

but you forget , woods powers didn't force the playoff there either , it was probably his greatest putt ever from 12 feet after having to layup and hit a 9 iron in for his third

The reason he had a chance to tie(with that putt) is because Rocco lacked the power to get to the 18th green as easily as Tiger could. If Rocco had the power of Phil, Tiger, Singh etc., then he wins that tournament, because he would of birdied the 18th.
