CaKeY Posted April 11, 2004 Share Posted April 11, 2004 Title says it all! from: espn What a Sunday at Augusta. Phil Mickelson birdied 18 to win The Masters by one stroke over Ernie Els. Mickelson rallied from three strokes down on the back nine with birdies at 12 through 14 and 16 before the final putt curled around the lip and dropped. Congrats Phil!!

stncttr908 Veteran Posted April 11, 2004 Veteran Share Posted April 11, 2004 Just watched the last round in its entirety. I'm glad that he has this rather large monkey (or in this case, maybe even a gorilla) off his back. He also seems like a good family man which heightens my respect for him.

Hexicon Posted April 11, 2004 Share Posted April 11, 2004 That is great news. Some people on Neowin have a tendency to play tricks on those of us that are gullible. I had to go to ESPN.com to double check. First major, couldn't pick a better place to do it.

IlliniPi Posted April 12, 2004 Share Posted April 12, 2004 Anyone catch those 2 aces on 16? I remember Tricket and one other guy had one. Amazing shots too.

Chris Allen Veteran Posted April 12, 2004 Veteran Share Posted April 12, 2004 ^ those were awsome shots. I loved how Tricket just flopped to the ground. Phil's last shot was awsome too. Oh, and I hate golf but was forced to watch it at my Easter get together. Double-rum and coke in hand, trying to stay awake ;) Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/156822-mickelson-wins-masters/#findComment-1959670 Share on other sites More sharing options...

BroChaos Veteran Posted April 12, 2004 Veteran Share Posted April 12, 2004 i think this will go down in history as one of the best masters ever. first, the walk off win. second, the pretty long putt that curls in. third, the round he had to shoot on the back to come from behind and win. fourth, it was PHIL getting his first! i've never been happier for phil and for a winner of a tournament.

Matrix XII Posted April 12, 2004 Share Posted April 12, 2004 I looked at the lines of both shots, and they were like inches a part of where the ball started to break down to the hole.
