Tiger was so aggressive on the front nine, he's trying to catch Westwood within 6 holes. Why? Be patient. Westwood will come back and once he does, then pounce. Phil did exactly that.

At some point you have to make a move though. The difference was Phil made all the key shots. Tiger didn't. Knock the strategy all you like....you can't win if you don't make the shots. Phil made pretty much every key shot on the back 9. It was a great performance, and he deserved the win.
Tiger didn't come close to executing.
