Is it just me or did anyone else see the look on Phil's face when he saw that there was gonna be a play-off... It was like, Geez.... Will I make it to the kick-off of the Super Bowl?... Let's get this over with.

To me, it looked like Phil's heart was not into it.

How about J.B. today. . . birdied the 18th TWICE in a row to beat the Mick in playoff for Tour win #2!

He's now the youngest player to win twice (referencing current age, not age at time of second win). Not bad to be a repeat winner and a long hitter.

Well done JB Holmes, that was a pretty clutch finish to hole that putt on 18 to take the tournament into a playoff. He absolutely crushed that drive on the playoff hole and it an excellent approach before calmly slotting home that winning putt!

An excellent way to win the tournament, congratulations on your second win JB Holmes!!

yea Phil gave the tickets away to some father and son.

was just reading in a magazine - a preview for the FBR, said that the 18th was "a tough closing hole, with water skirting the left side and a landing area between two fairway bunkers.

"Balls" didn't see any of those obstacles! what a bomber. ryder cup material?

I didn't know that... That is cool of him... I was way off in trying to read him by his face... I must be used to seeing a huge smile on his face even though he has to potential to lose.

Wasn't there a story a while back about Holmes and Funk teeing off on one such hole? Holmes' caddy said something like "The water stops 280 yards out; it isn't even in play for you," while Funk was thinking "it's still in play for me."

    • this topic brought to mind one my favorite golf-spectator memories. Back when, living in Santa Barbara CA, parked in my yellow cab just behind the 10th tee  (c. 380 yard par 4) at SB Muni golf course while eating lunch. A twosome comes by, and first up is this fat little mexican guy who takes a kinda squirelly practice swing, then addresses the ball and bashes a long, high, perfectly straight drive up to w/in about 5 yards of the green. Other guy is dressed to the 9's, pulls out what looks like a $300 driver....and hits a maybe 150-yard pop fly. Slams clubhead to the ground and yells, "it's fat! It's fat! Everything is fat today!!"  And that's how I learned what a "fat" shot is.

    • It may not be surprising that in the previous 7,064 posts, this particular point has been discussed. To which I will counter: If we're talking about results, why only the majors? Unless you know something that I don't, neither of us are in any position to judge whether Woods or Nicklaus lived their overall life better, not that such a thing is even objectively measurable, nor is it relevant to the discussion.
    • As we've had to tell other people, the topic is which is the better GOLFER, not human being.
