That, too.  I wonder about that.

Questionable decision making down the stretch. Flying 2 greens you can't go over, driver on 18 when 3 wood has left 130 in all week. Rory needs a new bag man that step in and not be best friend.

He will recover and win again, but it may need to be with a larger lead. Those missed 3 footers leave permanent scars.

The Johnson Wagner and Bryson content after the tourney was gold. Wagner stuffer it!

On the 2-1/2 footer he missed, it seemed to me he took an unnecessarily long backswing.  Any hacker knows that on a short putt like that, a shorter backswing leaves a lot less chance for error.  It's all about face alignment, and with a long backswing, you can get deceleration and that can cause you to close the blade and pull the putt.  I know these guys are pros, and they don't need to think about stuff like that with the skill level they have, but in that situation, shorten the backswing and just make sure the putter face stays aligned with the hole.  I'm a [BLEEP] golfer, but even I know that.
