2019 WGC Dell Technologies Match Play

[Cool Runnings]

You could argue the same about Tiger too, and those moments where so far in the past as they where coming down the back nine. The last few holes the win was open to both players. And over those final holes Rory had all the momentum until those two pivotal moments of incredible luck at crucial stages on the last 3 holes.

Tiger on the tee of Hole 15 and feeling the pressure hits his drive OB… but he was saved by the Gallery. This is where everything changes with that crazy moment of sheer luck.

What i believe is that jkhcwkf asd awdkjb 467sd

 

Edit ** sorry wind hit my hands as i was typing.

[Imp]

OH MY GAWD. UPSET! Wow. Just a little leak. Wow.

[BlackM00Nlight]

See that gust of wind?! Poor Rory..

[gatorpedsMD]

SHIATTTTTTTTTTTTTTT

[PZero]

Nice!

[larciel]

nervous pull

[Pent08]

Did that really just happen?

[Texas1]

Tiger just did a rory

[Cool Runnings]

Always thought your were a troll. Now you’ve confirmed it with that post.

Now you have to use the same standard and deduce Tiger “choked” that chip and short putt. Perhaps it was just the “Bjerregaard Effect”!

[Darth Putter]

Tiger's done, the crowd and NBC are OUTTA HERE.

[Showtime9]

There goes the Sunday ratings down the drain

[toddnt]

Choke

[BlackM00Nlight]

Nah.. it’s the wind. Just ask Cool Runnings.

[Pent08]

The silver lining of that outcome is that I’ll get a ton of work done tomorrow.

[Showtime9]

Fatigue

[Grantmur]

Well that frees up my Sunday

[80sFredriksson]

Nooooo

[MtlJeff]

I'm surprised the networks didn't have someone from the rafters shoot an arrow through BeauRegard as he was putting that.

 

Nobody gonna watch tomorrow

[bscinstnct]

 

Oof. I just let out a sustained "nooooo!!" For 30 seconds

 

Ahh, well, get em next week, TW.

Good job takin out Rory.

[buckeye440]

Nice choke. 35 holes in a day is a lot for Woods now? Especially after 3 days of consecutive matches...

[Golfnutgalen]

Wow, bogey after that drive...that hurt. I hope Tiger fixes his short putting before Augusta.

[deadsolid...shank]

Great interview by BG (not going to try to spell it). Really showing Tiger boatloads of respect. Classy young man.

[Pent08]

That kid Koepka’d Tiger today.

the wind theory is more legit on that shot though lol, Tiger looked at the shot thinking it was good
