Now in my opinion, Paula's putt was not a condedable length. I think this was very classy of Laura Davies to do what she did.
The match was already dormie. Laura Davies would have had to make her long par putt and hope that Creamer three putted just for the match to be extended. While it was classy, it was fairly obvious the match was over.
