Lucas "Brian Wilson" Glover sealed victory in an exciting play off against Jonathan Byrd on the first hole of a sudden death play-off. Glover also predicted exactly that Byrd would birdie the final hole in regulation to make the pair tee off again. This was some prediction seeing as the 18th was one of the hardest holes on a tough course. Quail Hollow, in my opinion is easily worthy of a place in the US Open roster. It seems to tick all the boxes required to make for an exciting event, so lets hope the organisers take heed of all the feedback.
Annoying South African Rory Sabbatini was also in the race, but fortunately fell short at -14. He did however shoot a flawless 65 on the final day, this doesn't help the fact he has a face that I defy anyone would not like to slap. I could easily see him playing with a chalk knob drawn on his back by a fellow pro, or a "I blow donkeys" sign, hastily masking taped on by a spectator. Rory doesn't seem to be liked that much amongst fellow pro's, pundits and fans alike. He is also a hot topic at the moment regarding slow play & etiquette issues, as he squared up nose to nose, to Sean O' Hair in the middle of the fairway for a dust up. I wish he had done that to other player in the group, Pat Perez, the feisty Perez would have knocked him square on his ample arse.
