GOLF ROUNDUP Watson's dramatic shot leads to victory Comment By The Associated Press MailTribune.com By The Associated Press Posted Nov. 9, 2014 at 6:49 PM By The Associated Press Posted Nov. 9, 2014 at 6:49 PM » Social News SHANGHAI — Even in the midst of a meltdown, Bubba Watson never lost hope Sunday in the HSBC Champions. He stood on the 16th tee with a two-shot lead. He trudged off the 17th green facing a one-shot deficit behind five players suddenly tied for the lead. And right when it looked as though Watson had blown it, he delivered a finish that not even the creator of “Bubba golf” could have imagined. From some 60 yards away in a bunker left of the green on the par-5 18th hole, Watson blasted out of the sand and watched his ball roll 25 feet before it dropped for eagle. Watson was so stunned that his eyes widened and he screamed. He didn’t know what else to do. Moments later, he rolled in a 20-foot birdie putt on the 18th in a playoff to beat Tim Clark and capture his first World Golf Championship. “You never know what he’s going to do,” said Rickie Fowler, who watched it all unfold at Sheshan International. Watson closed with a 2-under 70, a score that doesn’t even begin to describe his wild ride — an eagle, birdie, par, bogey and double bogey filled his scorecard over the last five holes. The two-time Masters champion looked like a lost cause when he stood in the bunker on the 18th in regulation play, waiting his turn. That’s when he turned to his caddie and told him, “It’s been a miserable couple holes here, but this will change everything if it goes in.” Talk about a Shanghai surprise. “You always joke about holing it,” Watson said. “And then it actually went in. I didn’t know how to react and so I just kind of screamed, and I lost my voice a little bit. It was one of those shots, a one-in-a-lifetime kind of shot. And so it was pretty neat.” The 10th edition of the HSBC Champions was the most memorable one yet. Clark made a 5-foot birdie on the final hole for a 69 to join Watson at 11-under 277. Fowler’s hopes of joining them ended when he tried to hit a 5-wood from 228 yards over the water to a back pin position. The ball didn’t make it over the front bank and rolled back into the water. He scrambled for a par and a 70. All three players in the final group had a chance at birdie to join the playoff. SANDERSON FARMS: At Jackson, Miss., Nick Taylor overcame a four-shot deficit to win the Sanderson Farms Championship, shooting a 6-under 66 for a two-stroke victory over Boo Weekley and Jason Bohn. The 26-year-old Taylor, the first Canadian-born winner on the PGA Tour since Mike Weir in 2007, played the front nine in 4 under to pull even with the leaders and took control with birdies on Nos. 13, 14 and 15. Ashland’s Jason Allred shot a 2-over 74 and tied for 69th place. MIZUNO CLASSIC: At Shima, Japan, South Korea’s Mi Hyang Lee won the Mizuno Classic for her first LPGA Tour title, birdieing the fifth hole of a playoff with compatriot Ilhee Lee and Japan’s Kotono Kozuma. The 21-year-old Mi Hyang Lee closed with a 3-under 69 to match Ilhee Lee (70) and Kozuma (69) at 11-under 205 at Kintetsu Kashikojima. England’s Laura Davies had a 71 to finish a stroke back.
