who says you have to be able to putt?

Despite a putter that couldn't do squat, even on the one and only playoff hole, Sergio Garcia managed to stand firm in a wind that had everyone else backing off, until the guy that wouldn't leave the top of the leaderboard despit all the prognostications to the contrary, Paul Goydos bogeyed his way into a playoff with Sergio. From there Goydos managed to put his golf ball in the same place where several of mine rest...the waters around the 17th green at Sawgrass. Garcia put on one hell of a performance from tee to green, just about everywhere. If he could have gotten a little help from his putter, he would have blown the field away. As it was, he relied on the wind to do most of that, and put himself in a position where even his putter couldn't wrestle the win away from him. He could miss a four footer and still win. Congrats on a great performance, el Nińo, the 2008 Players Champion.
