Sergio's bunker game

Phew, hes had like 4 or 5 straight bunker saves this morning, does anyone realize how strong he is from the bunker? Thing is his putting is down the drain so his ryder cup will be a bit tough, but the guys short game is amazing, now if he only could win a few

He might want to change putters unless he has an exclusive deal. By the way is he lifting weights hard? I mean i know his pants are tight but hes starting to look bigger as well. The boy is becoming a man. Now if he could only win a few as you said.

i think it was more than 4 or 5 at the end of the day as he continued to find them throughout his round. His iron's into the green were a bit terrible today, but the main thing is that he posted an acceptable score, that takes talent in itself.

I am guessing Serg's sand game has to be good because he is always in there. I noticed that alot with him, even with clear shots to the green.

Tee to green Sergio Garcia is the best player in the game.... hands down. Anyone with a lot of knowledge of the game and anyone who watches it and plays it enough can see that. If the guy could putt he would probably have 10-15 wins by now hands down. He's too mechanical... What he needs to do is go back and watch film of his putting at Medina from his dual with Tiger and remember what he did there... His putter used to be his strong suit.

There are probably a few arguments about him being the "best player in the game hands down" tee to green. If he was, even being a mediocre putter, he'd win more tournaments. I've seen flashes of brilliance from him, but consistency isn't always there. Just my opinion.

I saw part of the final round this weekend, and on one sand shot he left the ball about 2" from the cup - great shot. However he was immediately frustrated and began complaining about a spectator taking a photo of him during the shot. I guess the click of the camera cost him those two extra inches.

I guess I'm not much of a Sergio fan.
