Alan Shipnuck

It was starting to turn purple on some of those greens.

I mean, this was, this was probably the hardest conditions of the week.

And

And then he knows how to play this course in any conditions now.

And he has the talent and he has the ball flight coming into those greens with those towering iron shots.

And so he was lucky in certain ways.

And that's part of winning major championships.

The stars have to align.

And

know cam smith going crazy on the back nine at the old course like that was unlucky wyndham clark with one career victory playing the best run of his life on sunday at the u.s open that was unlucky um you know the bryce the shot that bryson hit on the last hole at pioneers he could never do that again you know rory got struck by lightning a few times during that drought and of course there was some self-induced um mistakes and everything else but

Some of those turns were stolen from him.

Nobody stole this one.

Everyone just kind of let him hang around, which is a huge mistake because he had the belief, he had the know-how, and that was very evident the last three hours of this tournament.

Yeah, that was a killer.

I mean, he had a chance to take control of the golf tournament and he just shrank from the moment.

You know, it's tough.

Like, we all love Justin Rose.

He's a classy competitor.

He's this lion in the game.

And we remember sort of the flashy putts he made on Sunday last year.
