A big golf result like this usually comes down to nerve more than anything else. When the closing stages get tight, the real battle is mental, not technical. Holding it together when the pressure is at its highest is what separates winners from everyone else, and that is exactly why finishes like this get remembered.

Golf gets brutally tense when it comes down to the last few holes.

That kind of pressure can ruin a round in seconds.

Winning ugly still counts, especially in golf.

Well done McIlroy. True gent!

That kind of pressure can ruin a round in seconds.

That is my read on it too. Worth trying before anything more drastic.

Momentum is real and it is the thing that is hardest to quantify.

Can't argue with that. I had something similar happen.

Cheers.
