Congrats to Ryo. He handled himself well on Sunday. This is his first top-20 in a stroke play event in the U.S. Let's hope it indicates that his game is improving in the areas it needs to to beat the world's best. In fact, they said on the U.S. broadcast that he has bought property outside of Augusta, Georgia, and intends to build a home there. Maybe he's gonna follow Rory's lead and play more next year in the states.

Maybe the shorter hair suits Ryo's game in America?

It's too bad he couldn't get the win, but a great tournament for Ryo regardless! Let's hope he can keep it up at the PGA.

Excellent stuff by Adam Scott - true class prevailed! He really is finding form at the right time - the question is, can he maintain it to win the PGA? I wouldn't bet against the kid - especially with Williams on board now.

Congrats to Adam Scott!! He was at the top and stayed at the top. Sorry to hear Ryo couldn't take it, but he's done his best so far, in my opinion. One of these days he'll do his best on the last day and come through to take the top spot.

As for Woods... ouch!

Congratulations to Adam for keeping the lead and winning it in the end. He shot four good rounds of golf. Also, well done to Ryo. He shot very well and finished a respectable 4th winning 132,000 dollars in prize money. Nothing to sneeze at. And what an interview by caddie Steve Williams dissing the golfer who summarily fired him (Tiger Woods). By saying that this was the "best week of golf in my career" and "the best win I've ever had", Williams showed that he still carries a grudge against his former boss. Wow!

Congrats to both Adam and Ryo. Adam for playing amazing under pressure and Ryo for hanging in there and showing everyone that when he matures he will be up top of the leaderboard as much as the other young guns including Jason Day : who just may be a future number 1 golfer.

"Congrats to both Adam and Ryo."

And congratulations to the second and third place players, as well, whom of course were not mentioned.

"Scott won by four shots over Rickie Fowler and Luke Donald."

Doh! Yes they were. My bad.
