Final Round
Sunday's round was a thriller...the final three holes very decisive...I was really pulling for the Argentinian player to win unfortunately that 2 iron out of the thick stuff was his undoing...he must have imagined he was having a hot back nine so he was feeling bullet proof.

Even though I have the same surname as Sergio..it is hard for me to pull for him....he is a very skilled & talented player...but he seems to not have the control of his emotions or thoughts during his rounds. While the long putter gave him some confidence during the Open...it was not enough in the end.

His press room conference after Sunday's event was so revealing of his frame of mind. He blamed the wait on I believe 18 for his poor iron shot into the green. He made reference to the ball hitting the flagstick and bouncing 15 feet off as just another omen of bad luck that haunts him...and as he said it isn't the first time that something like this has happened to him...what can one say for poor Sergio....destined never to win a Major because the gods are against him.
