Other than a Twins loss today, it couldn't have been a better day! It was very exciting watching Trevor Immelman start the day in the lead and finish the tournament in first place. He played strong despite losing three strokes. But when only three finish the day under par, +3 in the final round of the tournament is probably going to be just fine.
Lucky for Immelman, Tiger Woods didn't make his typical Sunday charge. Finishing at even par, Woods looked extremely frustrated the entire day. But then again, he typically isn't making three boogies in a round of golf - let alone the Masters. Had he been able to make par on those three holes, this post would have been quite different. Even without Tiger's non-existent charge, Immelman nearly gave Tiger the green jacket with a double boogie on 16 however he was able to stay strong and parred with 17 and 18.
It is great to see another young (non-Tiger Woods) golfer win the Masters after Zach Johnson won it in 2007. Is Tiger losing his stride? Definitely not. He'll win two of the three remaining Majors this year. My prediction is that he wins the British Open (aka The Open Championship) along with the PGA Championship.
Here is ESPN's video about the Masters.
