As I was checking the Northern Trust leaderboard yesterday on my phone at my girls Irish dance competition, I was amazed to see that Phil had relinquished the lead and was +3 for the day and Steve Stricker was leading the tournament. I returned home later in the day and saw the highlights on TV where he managed to get a couple of birdies down the stretch and pulled out a win. Can you image a player to shoot rounds of 62 and 63 and still lose a tournament. It almost happen to Phil and I'm sure has happened before to him and others. It just goes to show you, there's sometimes a fine line between shooting 62 one day to shooting 72 the next. You definitely can't take off a round on the PGA Tour.
