1. Well done Angel. His speed of play and the way he choosing his shots and executes quickly is a lesson to us all. I have seen him play a few times and to see him hitting the ball with a driver is truly a joy to behold. Great to see one of the good guys in golf win.
2. It was nice to see Tiger looking genuinely happy for Angel.
3. Course was fantastic; set up by USGA was superb. Lots of the greens were borderline but they managed to keep it playable. Just!
4. Most entertaining major in many years.
5. Short Par 4s with lots of trouble seem to be the answer to the ever increasing distance the top players hit the ball.
6. The no trees idea worked. I must say I was dubious when I heard this.
7. The 300yard par 3 worked. I suppose its equivalent to a 250yard hole with hickory clubs which was the original design
8. Tiger blading a pitch and then following it up with a fluffed one was truly astonishing. (Not the mention the shot that put him over the back in the first place)
9. Young guns: Casey, Rose and Baddely fail to step up again. Perhaps Dougherty is one to watch in the future.
10. Tiger seemed to be fighting his swing all day. Strange considering how well he hit the ball on Saturday. On Sunday his signature “squat” move seemed to be getting more and more pronounced as the day went on.
