It was a backwards race to see who could stay under par. Last man standing. It sure looked like Bjorn was home-free, didn't it, when he got to 4 under? The course ate everyone up. Bjorn will always remember the 3 shots it took him to get out of the trap on 16 (not to mention the shot that put him there to begin with), but he should also think about the two he cost himself when he angrily grounded his club in the sand with his ball still in it on Friday, and the short putt he missed on 17.

The winner collapsed down the stretch too. He was 5 under before the bogey barrage started. But a great par on 18, he deserved it.
