Sergi...NO! (Do You See What I Did There?)
Holy shit. My boy Paddy Harrington did everything he could to hand Sergio Garcia his first Major Championship. He even hit a ball into the burn on the last hole...twice! When Garcia stepped on to the 18th tee he knew he needed par to take home the (Maurice) Claret Jug. You just had to know he'd find...
You Didn't Have To Be Kreskin To See This Coming
We're past the halfway point in the final round of the Open Championship and Sergio Garcia is slowly working his way back to the field.
