    This guy’s win was a class act, held it together nicely on a tough course made tougher by a lot of idiots in the gallery. Sounded like an English Premier League soccer game in the background. Whatever happened to etiquette on the golf course? Must be a lot of jerks in Florida. I’m not a big Tiger fan but I gotta hand it to the guy, even when it looks like he isn’t going to break 80 he manages to birdie or eagle the last hole. Wish I could do that.
