POTW 32: Magic at 16.
June 4, 2012
Forget that he won. Forget that he won for the 73rd time. Forget that he tied Jack AT JACK’S PLACE. Forget that he came from 4 back to win by two. Forget that you couldn’t tell if it was 2000 or 2012 when watching the final round at the Memorial. The play of the week goes to the shot that will likely define Tiger’s comeback. A shot that Jack called the greatest shot he’s ever seen in the circumstances.
Go ahead. Watch it again. We are.
Play of the Week 16
June 8, 2011
This weeks POTW goes to Steve Stricker, champion of the Memorial Tournament.
Although a little belated, Stricker’s play this weekend needs to be commended. Stricker played incredibly, including two hole-outs in a four-hole span from Friday to Saturday. Although it’s not quite as impressive as Rocco Mediate’s 4-hole-out performance at CordeValle (the subject of POTW 2 and POTW 2.5), in four holes, Stricker hit an ace and holed out from the fairway on a par 4. He is now ranked 4th in the world, and he stands as the US’s best chance to overtake one of the pesky Euros (Westwood, Donald, and Kaymer) for the #1 ranking.
Although Stricker only managed a one-shot victory, a win is a win, and we’re proud of it.
So here’s to you, Steve. We hope to see you represent us (or, US) well at Congressional.
