Romero Can’t Close
Eduardo Romero had the Senior PGA Championship is his grasp, but in the end, couldn’t close the deal and Denis Watson was the ultimate beneficiary. Romero, Nick Price, and Denis Watson, all hit less than stellar shots coming in, but Romero couldn’t make the clutch putts when he needed them.
Nick Price needs to get his game face back on if he’s going to compete on the Champions Tour. Price was always known for his precision iron shots on the PGA tour during his heyday, but watching him iron shots today was painful.
I won’t say Watson backed into the win, but he did allow the other two to make all the mistakes, and then walked away with the title. It was also refreshing to see the seniors play a difficult course for a change, instead of these 6000-yard softies they’ve been playing in the majors.
