Winner: Sang-Moon Bae
Around the wider world of golf: The weather was so bad in Europe that the Portugal Masters got shortened to just 36 holes... which was just enough for Alexander Levy to get the win; Kirk Triplett won the SAS Championship on the Champions Tour; Tyler McCumber won the Transamerican Power Products CRV Mazatlan Open on the PGA TOUR Latinoamérica; Shanshan Feng won the Sime Darby LPGA Malaysia on the LPGA (the Constructivist has details); and Sun-Ju Ahn won the Stanley Ladies on the JLPGA (the Constructivist has details on this one too).
Okay, perhaps it's not this kind of massive deal to be the FedExCup points chief after best one match... But don't strive to inform that to Sang-Moon Bae.
To be honest, Bae did not play all that well on Sunday, carding a 1 spherical of seventy three to finish at -15. And I suppose that became to be anticipated considering that he hadn't been main while he received his other identify. But it became that blistering round of 65 on Saturday that gave him an insurmountable 4-shot lead going into Sunday.
Steven Bowditch managed to reach -thirteen and a bunch of different players like Hunter Mahan and Martin Laird got it to -12, but it just wasn't sufficient to overcome Bae's third round. The Frys.Com Open have become his 2d PGA Tour title.
There are quite a few perks that come to the winner of a Tour occasion, like retaining his card and entry into the Masters and THE PLAYERS, among other things. But for Bae, the most important perk from the win may be all of the Presidents Cup factors he garnered. The next one (in 2015) could be held in Korea, and Bae truely wants to make the group.
In the intervening time, the Napa wine u . S . Where the tournament changed into played had me in thoughts of a gaggle of helpless little grapes being overwhelmed by way of one specially decided pair of feet, and it's in that spirit that I offer this little Limerick Summary to the new Frys.Com Open champion.
The Korean contingent was thrilled;
Sang-Moon Bae?S lead did no longer want to construct.
