Fantastic to see Graeme McDowell overcome the slump with a bang in Mexico.
First he nailed a tricky par putt on the 72nd hole to force a playoff. Then on the 1st playoff hole, he hit his second shot (205yard - 5 iron) to 2.5 feet for birdie to clinch his 3rd and much needed PGA victory.
With this victory, GMac earns an Invitation to the 2016 Masters and a very nice two-year exemption on the PGA Tour. Oh and there's the winner's cheque of US$1,116,000.00 too.
Caught GMac at the Maybank Malaysian Open earlier this year and you couldn't support a nicer guy. You could tell he was having a tough time in the heat, but in between he was fantastic with the fan and very appreciative of the support.
Congratulations once again GMac!
In other news, it's been rather busy at work (yes, I do have a day job) but it's off to Miri in a couple of days where I will take on the highly rated Eastwood Valley Couse. Pics and updates when I come back!
