I disagree with this, but I think I know why you say that - he's not the flashiest. But that line is so good, it deserves a "like"...and hey, in internet currency, that's apparently worth something.

Odds that he holes this? I give Zach a 75% chance of draining this thing.

I think he has to, because Oosthuizen is going to make that.

EDIT: Can't believe he didn't get that left enough...Oosthuizen is as good as in here, though.

Zach Johnson wins. 'Murica.

We have a weener! I like Zach Johnson because he isn't a real bomber, has a lot of disadvantages, and still finds a way to maximize his talents to win. Also, he just seems like a really nice guy.

I'm not sure about this, but I think they said he was the first to win both the Masters and The Open, as far as the first legs, in terms of getting a chance at a career grand slam.

In 1953 Hogan won Masters US Open and the British Open. At that time the PGA was held at the same time as the British robbing him of the chance to win all 4 in the same year. He was 40 at the time.

Only 36 players have won at least 2 majors.
