The following is from Amy Mickelson:

Thanks for the link, I missed that bit of the story somehow. Never met her myself but Amy is well known and much liked by many in the development where I live. She used to work at the club in some capacity I think (I'm not a member, play there rarely).

“When he hit that shot,” Amy said, “we were heading to the car. I actually started crying at the house on 12. That’s when I saw him take control.” Heady stuff. What a gal ....

As a fan, I am glad Phil took that shot whether he drilled it (which he did) or bonked. That one shot provided more excitement for me than the rest of the tournament. As a fan, I appreciated that Phil risked losing to put on a show.

Come on, really?! Tiger holing out for eagle. Phil going eagle, eagle almost eagle. AK sinking putts all day long on Sunday shooting 7under. KJ looking more solid than solid and threatening on Sunday. Fred Couples, Tom Watson at the top of the leaderboard after the opening round. I was pissed that I missed Sunday at Augusta last year, and never thought I'd see another final day like it. But boy was I wrong. All four days this year was exciting and action packed. Way to go 2010 Masters!

It really was shot of the tournament for me. The guts it takes to take that one on are just astounding. I still can't believe it came out how it did. It's a shame he missed the putt, but that doesn't take anything away from how incredible that shot was.

If he hadn't of pulled that shot off, he could've easily dropped a couple of shots, leading to him giving Westwood a chance to catch him.

totally agree certainly the shot of the masters this year, & one of the best approach shots of all time.
tho tiger at the 16th in '05, larry mize chip in against the shark & seve's shot from the car park are also well on any list of best ever shots...imo

    • Ok, I'm trying to find a feel to hit a consistent ball flight (irons).  My current predicament.  1. I try to do the arms down stuff better, with the club feeling like it is way behind me more. It's just a cluster of results. Most of the time, I can't get any speed on the swing. If I get my arms down faster, I just throw them out.  2. I focus all my attention on turning better. Pushing off with my left leg and getting my right side through better. On the DTL view, this doesn't produce anywhere close where the hands and club should be. The result is usually ball first contact, lower ball flight, more centered contact.  At this point, I am going with option 2. Stop thinking about what the hands do. Just make a shorter backswing, keep it wide, turn through. Somehow, the club head finds the ball. My focus is so much on just making sure I turn, it's like, "Oh, that contact was better.... Oh, that bell flight looks playable." If not, I will just be practicing my entire summer.       
    • Nope, they spent too much money. They are in over 28 million on the football roster and related NIL compensation at this point. Boosters associated with any Texas college football team has HUGE sway. The AD is between a rock and a hard place. They put a lot of money into Sorsby, at the chance of winning a NC this year. If you move on, you basically wasted a lot.  This is why Ohio State wants 3 QB's they feel can start. That is why the backups the past 5 years at some point transfer. Texas Tech has no backup near the quality of Sorsby. If they move on, they are screwed for 2026. 
    • Maybe there's something I still don't understand about the situation. Wouldn't Texas Tech do itself a favor to move on from Sorsby at this point?      
    • Day 281 6-10 Full swing, fast, getting low point ahead of "towel".  Working on flow during this seems to help.
