3 peat

Live Report Image

Steve Stricker wins 3 in a row.  What a great accomplishment.  Stricker has become one of the most consistant golfers on the planet in the past couple of years.  The reason for that:  a new found dedication to the game after almost giving up on himself, a VERY simple golf swing, and a silky putting stroke.  I only watched the last 20 minutes of the tournament but that was the best 20 minutes.  Stricker is one down going in to 18 and pulls his drive into a horrible spot in a bunker.  Ball below his feet with water to carry and a back left pin.  Stricker took his time until he was ready to pull the trigger.  When he did it came off perfect and finished just on the back fringe.  He then proceeded to fearlessly roll in about a 25 footer for the outright win.  This guy is a force to be reckoned with.  What a competitor!
