What a weekend at the WGC-Accenture Match Play Championship. There was quite the showdown on Friday between Nick O’Hern and Tiger. A match that went to 20 holes after Tiger did what Tiger does best and birdied the 18th hole in regulation. Then on Sunday in the 36 hole finale we saw someone who isn’t very well known in the United States win the biggest tournament of his career. To be honest with you I had never heard of Henrik Stenson before this weekend. With the win this weekend Stenson will now take over the 5th spot on the World Rankings. What an impressive game this guy has. Not only was I impressed with him but with his opponent Geoff Ogilvy as well. All in all the final day of this event was a great duel between two players whose names were not Tiger, Phil, or Ernie. Great day for golf.
