Around the wider world of golf: Andrew Loupe won the Nationwide Children's Hospital Championship on the Web.com Tour; Esteban Toledo won the Nature Valley First Tee Open at Pebble Beach on the Champions Tour; Alex Rocha won the Aberto do Brasil on the PGA TOUR Latinoamérica; Bryden Macpherson won the Cadillac Championship on the PGA TOUR China; Céline Herbin won the Lacoste Ladies Open de France on the LET; Jackie Stoelting won the Murphy USA El Dorado Shootout on the Symetra Tour; K.T. Kim won the Asia-Pacific Open Mitsubishi Diamond Cup on the Asian Tour; Thongchai Jaidee won the Porsche European Open on the ET; and Junko Omote won the Miyagi TV Cup Dunlop Women’s Open (bangkokbobby has details).
What can I say? Jordan did it again, and in his acquainted unbelievable fashion.
He handiest shot a -1 spherical on Sunday, but it changed into enough. The guys near sufficient to venture, like Henrik Stenson, could not get it performed; and the men who put together a run were in the long run too a ways again to absolutely make a challenge.
Perhaps I can try to placed Jordan's season in angle in a later submit, but I can sum up the season pretty certainly:
- 7 worldwide wins (don't forget the Australian Open and Hero World Challenge -- they were wins, whether they were official or not)
- 2 majors -- the Masters and the US Open
- Top4s in all four majors
- Youngest to win THE TOUR Championship and the FedExCup
- Broke the single-season money record -- something over $12mil
- Finishes the season as #1 in the OWGR
It?S professional?He got here out on top.
The debates about Jordan can forestall.
Beat?Em all, received the Cup,
Snapped the POY up?
And to World Number One he’ll soon hop. The photo came from this page at progolfnow.com.
