Rickie Fowler (64) finished third at 21-under, with world No. 1 and defending champion Jordan Spieth (67) left to settle for fourth place, five shots back. I learn by watching and listening, so I just watched. For me, I don’t ask questions, I just watch.

“I fully expect Tiger to return to come back to play well and be a good competitive force in the game, but it does make me sad to see Tiger or any of our athletes struggle with health”, said Nicklaus.

Current Hero World Challenge victor Bubba Watson has admitted that he would retire if he ever reaches number one in the official world golf rankings.
But there again according to Rex, “Watson explained that Albany’s greens were too small for his liking, comparing them to those at RBC Heritage at Harbour Town on Hilton Head, where he hasn’t played since 2007”.
Given that Bubba has won on different golf course designs; Augusta National, Torrey Pines, Trump National Doral it does suggest that his unique style and imaginative shot making makes him different to the alleged clones. That’s why I’m moving back to Pensacola. “I have to thank the USA government and passport office for getting Dakota a passport so we could be here”, Watson said. “And that’s what we should be doing, having fun and hitting shots”.
Even if it didn’t feel easy to him it sure looked that way.
Tiger needs a few more than two major titles to surpass Jack Nicklaus’ all-time record of 18 and seemed earlier in the week to throw in the towel on his quest to win 19.
He played it safe and made bogey, and all that cost him was the tournament record. So people are always talking about Bubba Watson and how consistent he is and how good he is.
Rose, the 2013 US Open champion, birdied the third and fourth holes, fired three in a row starting at the par-5 sixth, began the back nine with his sixth birdie and then fired four more in a row capped by a 2 at the par-3 17th.

Spieth tried to stay in range and was three shots behind until he missed a 4-foot birdie putt on the ninth hole and never converted many chances after that.
