Triple (6) for Phil. He should have gone back to the tee.

Better to be lucky than good - he chunked it short [barely to the front of the green], but had just enough momentum to get into that little rille valley ...

Then gravity took over - Thanks Isaac Newton !!!

Scoring 3 under the hole’s stated par.

ex: scoring a 2 on a Par-5 hole.

Beautiful pink driver for Buba.

Both players down the middle on 18 for the playoffs.

Fake background bird sound is rising.
