Ogilvy In The HUNT!!!

[McMw]

1 round to go, and he's up against Kevin Na...

hope Oggie can pull it off, but I have a strange feeling Na might be able to conjur something up, from his experience couple of weeks ago...

[McMw]

He just drained an 18footer birdie putt, with Na an 8 footer on the 2nd playoff hole to extend the suddendeath...

[McMw]

Second hole -- Fourth shot:
Kevin Na: Misses birdie putt
Geoff Ogilvy: Drains birdie putt

Geoff Ogilvy wins the Chrysler Classic of Tucson :D :D :D :D :D

[3oneday]

He's one off the pace, after Padraig Harrington shot -9 :shock: , and Vijay is -8 with 1 to play :shock: . They must be playing a different course :shock: :shock: , Ogilivy is -1 after 12. I guess Ogilivy had his turn yesterday with his 9 birdie 64, still, hanging in.....

Should be an interesting finish 8) 8) .

[Trung]

A par on the par 5 17th.... :? (with his length, should be an easy birdie)
A double on the 18th :? (too much pressure?)

Might have cost him the chance to reach the top 50s by end of march for a ticket to the Masters :cry:

[Jarro]

man he was sooooo unlucky today.

He hit a good drive down the lefthand side of the Par 5 17th fairway, iron tugged left into the greenside bunker ... straightforward uphill bunker shot to 9 feet ... hits the perfect putt only to see it lip out :evil: He needed birdie on this hole to get to a tie of the lead at 14 under :roll:

now he has to birdie the last. Hits a great drive ... loooong and down the righthand side ... perfectly placed for an approach to a back left pin..... gets to his ball to see it sitting in a huge sand filled divot :x he then proceeded to hit his approach shot fat, then chipped into the greenside bunker and it was all over red rover #-o
