UGA product Brendan Todd made some great shots on Sunday to hold off Mike Wier, who deserves some kudos for a strong 67 Sun.

A surprisingly (as of Fri) rainy Sun. kept me indoors and I watched some of the action...the shot of the tournament, maybe of the year...leading by 2 I think, Todd faced a very difficult shot...par 4, 13th, his approach pulled left up a bank and stopped up against a tree leaving a RH player no swing.

Lot of green to work with...he plays a 5i turned backwards LHed...struck perfectly, the ball finishes 6' or so below the cup...makes the par putt...then rolled in a another lengthy par putt to have a comfortable walk up 18.

1st PGAT win.

That was quite a shot. What made it better was that he followed up with the putt.

Just glad to have it out of town. Traffic was a bitch all last week. Glad to see the Nelson course looking nice again and getting some decent players out there, but it sure makes driving on 114 a PITA.

Man I can't even hit a shot like that RH let alone do it with the opposite hand!

It was...the wheels could've started to come off he missed that putt...the 20'ter for par was bigger...that preserved the two shot lead.
