[...] I still haven't fully decided whether or not Luke Donald belongs on the choke artist list, but he is getting awfully close. Like Garcia, Donald had a legitimate shot at winning The PGA Championship at Medinah last August. He went into the final round one shot behind Tiger Woods. Even though Tiger is perfect in majors while holding a 54-hole lead, I still thought Luke Donald would put up some kind of a fight. Instead, the young Englishman shot a final-round 74 and crumbled alongside fellow young gun, Sergio Garcia. [...]

I think you're right, as if there were any questions. Going into the week we all knew he'd win. Congratulations Tiger Woods, you are clearly the best player in the history of the game and it's a pleasure to watch you week in week out. NOW CONTINUE THIS AT THE RYDER CUP!!!

CBS....PLEASE FIRE LANNY!!!!

I think Moore should be chosen for the Ryder Cup. He's clearly a good match play golfer. Also, to those commenting, check out the "answer this in the comments" questions I've posted above.

Just shows how good these guys really are that he can play like he has despite the injury. I imagine it may have been a benefit for him this week, taking his mind off any pressure that playing in a major might bring and helping him focus on making a good swing each time.

Yes, rmgators, he is. It's a good practice drill, too. It reminds me of that European player from the Solheim Cup (LPGA Tour) who would swing back part way, pause, then go from there.

Moore is using that strange action b/c of a wrist injury.

Is it just me, or at the end of the Law and Order commercial does the guy say, "I killed Justin Leonard?"

No wonder he hasn't been a factor lately.

Jeff Smith said on August 20, 2006:

Will today see another lame "I'm out of contention" round from Phil Mickelson, off at 1:10?

If Mickelson plays poorly remember he's just practicing for the Masters next year.
