I had very little interest in this and now that I find that a $9 million purse was decided by a made up 93 yard playoff hole I have even less interest.
Events of great importance or for large amounts of money should be decided by a lengthy playoff. Not one hole and especially not by some ridiculous little made up hole.
Phil's short game is his biggest asset. IMHO, this playoff hole gave him a distinct advantage. Why not go to a 240 yard par three?
On the other hand, i think the producers missed a great opportunity. They could have called it a draw and had a rematch.
