DESCRIPTION
A three-man playoff provided a Hollywood ending at Riviera. But was the most memorable moment provided by a runner-up? It's today's Morning Drive debate with Erik Kuselias, Gary Willliams and special guest Jerry Foltz.
TRANSCRIPTS
-All right, welcome to the Morning Drive studios for GolfChannel.com.
I'm Gary Williams with Erik Kuselias. It's great to have
Jerry Foltz in. We had in him on Monday breaking
down all the brackets. We'll put the brackets aside for
a moment. The Northern Trust yesterday, a remarkable drama in
Hollywood. When you think about the conclusion of that event,
how was won not so much how was lost so
much. What do you remember most? -I think Bill Haas
and just sort of-- from a perspective of-- this is
a guy and what he did out of the water
in the FedEx Cup and I'm thinking in the playoffs
just looking at two major champions and there's a major
champion either side of them and very different kinds of
major champions. Keegan Bradley who won in his first ever
appearance in a major. And then, you have Phil who's
just sort of Phil looking to repeat in the mystique
and 40 career wins. And, he just stared them both
down and once again found a way to battle through
this thing and clutch it out. Bill Haas. -Well, he
did clutch it out. He clutched it out but with
a very improbable putt on the second playoff. Well, my
lasting memories are going to be the putt and the
sound when Phil Mickelson made it on the 72nd hole
today. That was incredible after not being able to shake
one in all day long. He makes that-- what was
a 30-feet-- I think 29-feet or something. That was incredible.
Keegan tops it on top of that. Then, on the
second hole of the playoff when Haas makes a putt,
it's like-- it was like that somebody just let all
of here out of blue. Did that really just happened
because there was such a build up and I know,
of course, the fan favorite being filled. They all wanted
him to win and it was-- it was incredible. It
really was. The drama this year on the PGA Tour
is-- is crazy. It's stupid good. -It is a remarkable
West Coast swing. But to me, you think about where
they played. You think about 18th at Riviera. It's so
demanding. It's so long. Yet, you have Keegan Bradley hitting
wedge in there. But, the difference between the 18th hole
that they played, that-- that the par want it. And
then, they go to 10th which is the most seductive
par of 4, I think in the world. And, for
it to conclude there with Bill Haas basically saying, "You
know what, I'm just going to put it on the
green from 40-feet-- -A pitch out. -A pitch out. -Yeah.
-And, I have the advantage on one of the shortest
holes they'll play all year long on the PGA Tour."
That to me shows you that things built 100 years
ago almost still can stand up today. -I was still
looking at the three of those guys and I was
also thinking, "You know what, it's now official. Seven straight
events to come out of the gate won by the
good old USA first time for more than a decade
that's happened." -Yeah. -So, it seems like USA is off
to a good start on trying to get eight straight
this week at match play. -That's true. Seven is a
key number for us. That's when we start Monday through
Friday 7 a.m. to 9 a.m. right here on Morning
Drive.
