Winner: Dustin Johnson
Around the wider world of golf: Nothing yet. It's just the first week of the new season!
You're no longer in Kansas anymore, Dorothy... Even though I realize the winds may have reminded you of it...
It wasn't the paradise the players have come to expect. High winds, sideways rain, and 3 cancelled rounds of golfing -- of which were started out but never finished. There changed into a few doubt that the Tour should even get inside the considered necessary 3 rounds that could make this an legit occasion.
But they did. And as he has finished the ultimate two times we had 3-spherical rain-shortened occasions, Dustin Johnson evenly sprinted out to a lead and by no means relinquished it.
Only defending champion Steve Stricker surely gave him a run, pulling within a stroke at times in the course of the final round. But even if DJ made a rare mistake, just like the double-bogey he took on thirteen, he bounced proper lower back with a birdie -- or, inside the previous case, an eagle on 14. When you control to shoot 3-beneath for your returned 9, inspite of a double-bogey, you're playing nicely.
An important issue to word from this week's event is that DJ's brief recreation is truly stepped forward. He changed into a chunk ticked late final year that he wasn't getting any credit score for a way a whole lot higher it become, however this week it was not possible to disregard. Given how nicely it held up, even in those tough route conditions, it's difficult to doubt that he might be at the verge of a breakout year.
So this week's Limerick Summary -- the primary of 2013 -- is a quick salute to the man who received a brief tournament and has an similarly quick turnaround for his next tournament (he is scheduled to tee off on the Sony at 7:50am Hawaii time on Thursday):
After three days? Postpone from winds gustin?,
Every man in the field found out that Dustin
Has a brand new dossier:
He just blew them away
With a short game it seems he can trust in. The photo came from the Hyundai tournament page at PGATOUR.com.
