I just watched the delayed telecast and felt sorry for Rory. He basically handed the trophy over but it was exciting nonetheless.

Looks like TW is aging fast at 38. So many health issues at his age. Knees, ankle, lower back, etc... Just wondering if it has got to do with his muscle building exercise regime. Wondering out loud, is building muscle that important for golf? During Arnold Palmer, Jack Nichlaus and Gary Player's time, did they concentrate on muscle building as part of the training?

I think Tiger practices too much kamasutra while on tour that led to his bad back. Has to withdraw after 13 holes in the final round and can see that he was limping a little.

yeah, it was a tough lost, he has some work to do to learn how to close out tournaments.... but his 2nd shot on the 72nd hole was probably the best of the tournament, insane...... wish he had made the eagle putt to win though! http://www.eighteenunderpar.com/russell-henley-honda-classic-champion/

I agree. i was so hoping he can hole that eagle putt. When I watched him set up his putt, I had a feeling that he will miss it on the low side and true enough. The double bogey off the fairway bunker into water hazard was just painful to watch also.

This is life's lesson, even for the Pros, not to mention us mere mortals. From now on I will practice very hard to turn Pro, in my next life.

Re TDO's comment on today's tour players working out in the gym to build beautiful bods ... Lets see how the Nike Tour staff sweat it up in the gym ...
