Hope the media stuff dont' make that a story. They should just concentrate on what a brilliant win this is

It was a fantastic win, a gutsy win to hold his nerve. It would do a lot for the sport of golf in this country.

Tiger Woods you shouldn't even have been in contention son

Agree on both points

Woods should have disqualified himself like other players have done (Norman did it twice while leading tournaments). Rather than saying the officials penalised me and I accept that. There are unwritten rules regarding the etiquette of certain sports, golf is one of those sports, what Woods did by playing on broke those rules, will rightly lose a lot of fans over it

Pretty sure Els did also

I just loved it how an Aussie showed nerves of steal.

That putt on the 18th and the fist pump that followed was what sports all about
