  The difference in credits is marginal, but I was curious as to how I lost the tiebreaker (matching 28's) for this tournament:

  Normally, I'd guess the other player finished on a hot streak. Except in this instance, I finished the front 9 like this:

  6 - birdie

  7 - birdie

  8 - hole in one (eagle)

  9 - birdie

  so I'm curious what trumps that in the tiebreaker :) Not a big deal, just curious.

  Great round you got there friend and my guess is someone with a matching score but with an eagle on the last hole would have got the go ahead in a tie breaker situation ! Very unlucky to lose out there i must say.

  Thanks, coolswing - it all evens out. The rules are the tiebreaker is the last 6 holes, then the last 3... so I guess playing 4-9 in -5 wasn't enough. Props to Carlos415 who I think must've played them in -6, maybe eagle on 7 or 9. I was mostly baffled by losing a tiebreaker after making a hole in one :).
