A gruelling end to the British Open saw Garcia throw away his wire-to-wire victory to Harrington. However Harrington could have wrapped it up had he not found himself in the water twice and double bogeying the 18th! That being said Garcia could also have tied the deal on the 18th himself, having posted pars on his previous 3 rounds he could only manage a bogey 5 under the pressure.

However this left us with a fantastic end to the British Open, Harrington eventually won on a four-hole payoff, which again was taken to the 18th and to the final putt! I can’t help to feel for Garcia though as he was so unlucky on some of his putts and he had played some fantastic golf throughout the tournament.

The rain threatened to spoil the final day but after lunch it held off and left the leaders with a great chance to post some more good scores. Carnoustie seemed to be playing a lot easier this time around but I’m sure the players wont be complaining, especially Tiger who hacked himself around some holes and still posted pars.
