Woods hoists the Wanamaker
Trophy after winning the PGA
Championship at Valhalla.
eventually found himself
having to make a 30-foot
birdie putt to extend to
another playoff hole. This
time, there was no more
May magic, and Woods
saved his par from a
greenside bunker with a
sand shot that came to rest
18 inches from the cup.
When it was over, a
clearly drained Woods
said, “It’s hard to rank
all these (major champi-
onships) wins together.
This one was the most
exciting from a player’s
standpoint. The fact you
are playing at a level that
is so high and knowing on
the back nine on Sunday
… that par is not going to
win a hole. That is differ-
ent. That wasn’t going to
be the case today.”
Said May, “I proved I
could play under
the heat. This
fulfills some
expectations I’ve
had for myself and
other people have
had for me. I shot
72 and three rounds
of 66 in a major on a
pretty good course.
I went head to head
with the best player
in the world and lost out
in a playoff. If you shoot
three 66s in a major, you
should win. But you’re
playing against the best
player in the world and he
proved that’s still not good
enough.” l
