This is a remark contributed to Chris Dimarco after his play-off loss at the PGA Championship.

After hitting his 6-iron onto the green at No. 18, "I looked at my caddie and said, 'That's good enough, for sure,"' DiMarco said. "I'm proud of myself that I went out and did it."

I wonder.....Had he focused more on the ensuing birdie putt (instead of prematurely congratulating himself for making the Ryder Cup team) would he have made the putt that would have won him the PGA Championship? I don't recall ever hearing or reading anything that remotely hinted that any other player was ever thinking about anything else, on the 18th hole of a Major championship, other than winning the Major at hand.
That was a mouthful!

The Ryder Cup is a great event but no player in the world would trade making the team over winning a Major Championship....or would they? I'm not so sure in this case. What do you think?
