The
fist pump for the birdie at the 18th hole was demonstrative, but didn’t
have the same ferocity as the celebration a decade ago at Torrey Pines.
Tiger Woods didn’t win the PGA Championship on Sunday, but it sure felt that way for much of a loud and raucous day at Bellerive Country Club.
When Woods closed out his best score in the final round of a major — a six-under 64 — with a birdie on the 72nd hole, he left the green like a hero on parade. As he crossed the bridge to the scoring room, thousands cheered him from below. Woods answered with a simple thumbs up.
