So many to chose from including Bo Van Pelt's near ace on the 12th and the Quiros Creek shot on 13 but Padraig Harrington's second shot to 15 gets the award for bravery from me. After only parring his nemesis hole, the par 5 13th, Podge was determined to do some damage on the next par 5. After he hit his 5-wood second shot caddie Ronan Flood looked away in horror, sure it was wet. Fortune favours the brave betimes though and Harrington got a big slice of it as he watched his ball land inches from disaster and roll onto the green. "What was all the fuss about" Harrington said to Ronan using only an ear to ear smile, hunched up shoulders, and palms facing skyward! He walked away with birdie. It was all so reminiscent of Olazabal's shot during the third round in 1999 and we all remember how that ended up.
