Yeah sometimes you have to lose a crushing loss to get that win.
Remember McIlroy shot 40 on the back 9 at Augusta and then a few months later won the US Open.

Ya, Shaughnessy is a beauty. If set up well, can play as one of the toughest courses in the North America.

gutted for Scott...golf is a brutal game

That's karma for you. He cheated and lost.

If you're talking about the front 9 when the official ruled that no penalty stroke would be incurred when the ball moved on its own, you're going to have to explain the cheating bit. He was honest, asked for a ruling and got it.

Besides that, the one stroke he would have had to incur is hardly equal to the four strokes he lost coming in. Karma's a bitch, but not to that extent!

Well karma doesn't exist.

But I do think he saw the ball move. I got the impression he saw it and that's when he walked away and weirdly looked up on the green.

Very happy that Ernie won today - great when the good guys win.

Plus if he could putt a little better it wouldn't have been close. First in Green in Regulation but 71st in putting for the tourney.

Congrats Ernie Els.
