GOYDOS LATEST VICTIM TO PGA PRESSURE

GOYDOS LATEST VICTIM TO PGA PRESSURE






Paul Goydos pulled a Kenny Perry at the Texas Open. After birdieing the 16th hole to take a one stroke lead, he then immediately bogeyed the 17th and 18th to miss a playoff by one shot. I'm not sure what happens to these guys coming down the stretch, but it doesn't look like any fun. The pressure was clearly evident on 18, when he yanked his 5 iron into the left rough, and then hit a horrendous chip that barely got onto the green. Under normal circumstances, he probably gets that ball up and down 8 out of 10 times, but under the pressure he didn't come close.

Zach Johnson took full advantage and won on the first playoff hole over James Driscoll, who fired a final round 62 to make the playoff. Johnson repeats as champion of the Texas Open, continues his stellar play for the year, and now has the Fed Ex cup points lead for the year.
