Anyone else see the amazing finish to the Frys.com Open yesterday on the Golf Channel?

Trailing by one stroke to Bettencourt, who was looking at a 25 foot birdie putt, D.A. Points holed his second from 124 yards out on 18. Bettencourt proved his mettle by cooly sinking the putt to force a playoff on the same hole. Points won the tourney by hitting almost exactly the same approach, this time form 122 out on 18, to within six feet.

One of the more exciting finishes I've seen to these late season tournaments.

That wasn't the Frys.com Open. 'Twas the Miccosukee Championship...

http://www.pgatour.com/2008/tourname...608/index.html And no, I missed it. I did watch the end of the Frys.com Open, though. Sutherland had two 10-footers to win and missed both.

I saw the replay of it. That was an amazing shot. And yeah Erik I was watching the Frys.com Open, and I was in awe at how Sutherland missed both of those putts, and then hit a bad shot on the second playoff hole. Dissapointing.

DA Points hit two amazing shots to win that tourney. I was very impressed with how both players handled it, I think that part of the reason that Bettencourt handled it so well was it shored up his PGA card for next year and that is the goal being on the Nationwide circuit, to get your tour card.

      My Swing (Ty_Webb)

      By Ty_Webb · Posted

      Got told off yesterday for doing full swings and full speed swings so went to the range this lunchtime and did some slow speed stuff and freezers. A few videos from my session.    First few are DTL then some FO This one is of me looking at the club on the way back. I think I get my arms lifting all the way back, not that you’d know because YouTube keeps glitching on me.    Second one is two slow backswings. This glitches the first one but the glitch looks like a pretty good position so I’ll live. Second one works. Then another swing back and hit. When I’m not watching or really focusing on it it seems that my upper arm doesn’t lift at first, rather stays roughly where it is and I add the lift at the end so the club comes a bit more inside. I think that’s what I’m going to focus on. This one glitches a bit too but it’s really just pausing. This shows the club coming a bit more inside but not as laid off at the top Then a couple of face on ones And lastly one smoothie and one freezer at normal speed  Quite happy with how this went. I can see my arms are better when I take it slower. Also while I’m still pitching my arms out it doesn’t seem to be as extreme as yesterday. Light at the end of the tunnel 🙂

      Pablo, you can’t get much safer than cash and a public meetup spot. Don’t know what happened to you there.  Always check their profile to make sure they have either sold stuff, have other things for sale and have a profile that shows they don’t join FB the day before.  Be wary if the price is too low, but those are usually the people who joined 2 days ago and have nothing in their profile .  Craigslist is the place full of scumbags usually.
