Close but no cigar

So, a top 10 finish for Tiger but the win goes to Phil. When you look at the stats for the week it all came down to the putting. Tiger beat Phil in driving, greens in regulation and distance to the pin but had twelve more putts. If Tiger had the same number of putts as Phil, he wins, simple as that.

Phil is off to a roaring start to the season but I thinking that his success will just inspire Tiger to greater heights, there's no one he want s to beat more than Phil.

Tiger said that he lipped out a number of putts which suggests that his speed control was to blame. I'm sure that he'll have the putter dialed in before the Masters in which case we might be in for a fantastic tussle for the Green Jacket.
