], who won the ] at Winged Foot, held the lead after each of the first three rounds. He faded in the final round, however, shooting a 79 to finish in 6th place. With Irwin's collapse, the tournament became a duel between Fuzzy Zoeller and Greg Norman. Zoeller led Norman by three shots heading to the back-nine, but Norman managed to draw level by the time he reached 18. His approach shot on the last sailed into the grandstand, but he managed to save par by holing a 45-foot putt. Zoeller, standing on the 18th fairway, waved a white towel as a playful sign of surrender, then proceeded to par the hole himself to force a playoff. The two finished at 276, five shots clear of the rest of the field. The playoff proved to be no contest. Norman double-bogeyed the 2nd to fall three-strokes behind, and Zoeller carried a five-shot lead to the back-nine. He finished with a 67, eight shots better than Norman. This time on 18, it was Norman who waved a white towel in mock surrender. |
