The Masters (Final Day)
What a fantastic final day to the Masters. Just when it looked all over with Speith five clear & nine holes to play, Willett started to push and Speith went into melt down, dropping six shots in three holes. It was Faldo v Norman all over again albeit this time sprinkled with a touch of Yorkshire and some Henderson's Relish. Dustin Johnson & Lee Westwood briefly threatened but you only had to look at Willett's face over the closing holes to see that here was a man on a mission. He has got better & better over the last two years. He pushed Rory all the way in last season's R2D and now as a Major winner, he might just go on to dominate this season.
Our guys did us proud. They all beat the cut and several were still in it on the final nine. We got a place on the Top Mainland European with RCB and I did have a small bet on Willett like I always do which covered me here.

The ultimate measure of a man is not where he stands in moments of comfort and convenience, but where he stands at times of challenge and controversy.
