It looked as though we might have seen the Retief Goosen of old after yesterdays round at the Transitions Championship. It is very difficult to win golf tournaments while you’re battling on the PGA tour. Goosen has been in terrible pain, just for him to go out and swing a club is amazing. You could see from his start today Goosen was having problems. Retief opened his final round with a double bogey on his first hole. Things didn’t get much better by the time Goosen walked off the second green he added another bogey to his card. Goosen would add three more bogies to his card in the first 15 hole today.
Retief Goosen would fall back to 7 under par after 15 holes and trialed the leaders by 7 at that time. Retief would get birdies and the par 5 11th and he would birdie the par 3 15th to get it to 3 over par on his day with 3 holes left to play. As far as getting himself a win on the PGA tour today, Goosen wasn’t going to be able to do that. Some guys probably wouldn’t have even risked ...
