As Jim Nantz put it so eloquently on CBS, a tournament known for the color green was overtaken by pink Sunday. Where Woods goes from here, as a golfer and a man, only he knows. But Mickelson goes straight to a place where few athletes settle anymore, a pedestal that can be admired without fear he'll let anyone down."


A great tournament and a well deserved win for Lefty.

I hate to be cynical, but these days it's best to just appreciate the moment and not put any athlete on a pedistal. Remember Tiger's early tournaments with his dad, then with his wife? Unfortunately people (human beings) often do not live up our expectations of them.
