Video: Rory Miraculously Side Steps Dog Turd Then Fails To Notice Steam Roller

It  was supposed to be the Rory McIlroy show. No Phil or Adam within earshot, Tiger Woods was already back at his house having a massage.

rory miracle shotWhat happened was another stuttering final round of the Honda Classic (without Caroline inside the ropes to blame) from a troubled McIlroy but boy did it make make for great drama.  A most unRorylike semi duffed fairway bunker shot on 16 was the pick of the poor shots and lead to double and he followed it with another bogey from the sand on the tricky 17th.

Then came the kind of moment only Champions can produce, a 245 yard 3-wood miracle shot on the last that left a putt to win.  Everything about that shot was epic, only McIlroy could have produced it.  It was kind of hard to believe that eagle putt was then to win the Honda Classic given the terrible day McIlroy had and maybe it was justice for the others that it slipped by to set up the playoff eventually won by Russell Henley.

“You know, even if I had won, it would have felt a little bit undeserved,” Rors told reporters after.

Cue the talk of “being close” but not yet the finished article.  The countdown to Augusta just took another little twist!

  Here’s the video of Rory’s miracle shot and the drama of the playoff.
