Loved it when Scott yelled "c'mon aussies" after that putt in regulation, then Cabrera follows it with the best approach to the 18th all day to make his first birdie in a finale round at the 18th. Don't think anyone would mind Cabrera in the trenches beside them, ice cool and by his post round interview someone who "gets" the game. I'd love to know how many major winners have suffered the heartbreak like Scott did last year, to bounce back and win one the following year. IMO that is what makes good golfers great.
On a side note, read an interview recently where Scott said he would continue to use the long putter for good, he would just modify the way he uses it by moving the top of it away from his body. Didn't really pay much attention to whether or not he is already doing this. Anyone else notice?
You don't have to look too far back in recent history. Remember a young Irishman melting down at the Masters a year or two ago only to clean up at the US Open a few months later?
But I agree 100%. This win erases that Open Championship choke.
