That bunker shot on 18 that English made from a plugged lie by the lip was amazing to get the ball as close as he did to save par. Hickok made some great par putts. However, after playing 18 seven times today, I would think that a birdie putt would have come a lot sooner.

Middler Posted June 28, 2021 Share Posted June 28, 2021 Some playoff. Both made so many crucial putts, but they both seem like they were playing defense vs offense - understandable under the circumstances. It was fun for a couple holes, but I have to admit at about the 7th playoff hole I was ready for it to be over. Thank goodness it didn't go past 8 holes. Great exhibition by both, and Hickok's day should come soon, he handled the pressure extremely well.

BigUrsus Posted June 28, 2021 Share Posted June 28, 2021 I get playing holes based on where fans were already. Maybe they can cap holes in the future?
