Johnson Comes Through In Masters

Hello. Admit it, you knew it all along. Zach Johnson was going to mount his usual great finish, shoot 69 on a very tough course and fly by the leaders into Masters history.
I'll admit I 'knew' that Tiger Woods was going to finish lower than Stuart Appleby, and that no one behind Tiger would play better than him, so he'd win. I think Tiger 'knew' that too, and probably figured 72 would be good enough. And in most cases it would've been. However it wasn't on Sunday because at least 2 players (Johnson and Retief Goosen) believed rounds in the 60s could be shot at Augusta. And they went ahead and did it.
Johnson's strategy, particularly on the par 5s, was excellent. He hit wedge into every one, and birdied 11 of 16. on any hole where he was hitting more than wedge, he was hitting it low, and letting it run up to the hole. While other players were trying to stop the ball close to the hole, and having it bounce elsewhere, Johnson was landing it far from the hole and letting it roll to its destination.
What was also great is how Johnson kept his cool. This guy obviously learned a lot at the Ryder Cup last fall. He believed he could win, and played that way.
Congrats Zach for a well-deserved victory!

Regards,
Steve
