Winner: Keegan Bradley
Around the wider world of golf: Matthew Fitzpatrick became the first man in 40 years to successfully defend at the Omega European Masters on the ET; Nick Voke won the Qinhuangdao Championship and became the first New Zealander to win a PGA TOUR China event; Thanyakon Khrongpha won the ISPS HANDA Match Play on the Japan Golf Tour; Caroline Hedwall won the Lacoste Ladies Open de France on the LET; and at the 2018 World Long Drive Championship, Maurice Allen won the men's division and Phillis Meti won the women's division.
The BMW Championship managed to get 4 rounds in, in the end. I became amazed.
Justin Rose made it to the number 1 spot on the arena ratings and Tony Finau made it to the United States Ryder Cup team. I wasn't surprised.
And then Keegan Bradley tracked down the leaders and took the BMW in a playoff against the new #1...
I became pleased!
I selected the image above -- rather than a general "winner holds trophy" p.C -- certainly due to the natural pleasure. After the anchor ban trashed Keegan's sport for pretty some time, he -- like Webb Simpson -- figured it out and were given his first win in six years.
In per week in which the exceptional inside the international observed themselves on a smooth course with report low scores each day, Keegan got it carried out with style. And he did it after a textbook meltdown simply a couple of weeks returned, which he stated helped him experience snug down the stretch Monday.
This occasion intended a lot to Keegan. It receives him again to the Tour Championship, which gets him returned inside the majors subsequent year, it locks up his card for a couple of years and -- sure, let's simply say it -- it lets him agree with he nonetheless definitely can get it completed whilst it counts. But it also gives him a gift he did not anticipate.
While he's no longer inside the Top5 headed to East Lake, so he doesn't really "manage his destiny," he is now #6 within the FedExCup ratings, and meaning he WILL have a first rate chance to pick up that big $10mil prize. This 12 months has abruptly come to be a totally, excellent one for Keegan Bradley, and there's no telling in which he would possibly go from here. And it is no longer even counting the nice a part of his win.
Yes, Keegan, you DO get your very own Limerick Summary. I recognize you've got overlooked getting them.
The top spot?S no longer to be had
But one fact is now unassailable:
Although thirty will coins,
Keegan?S final spherical dash
Means that eight-figure peak is still scalable. The photo came from this page at pgatour.com.
