  Must have been a toff, eating chips* from a plate.

   

  *fries is a verb not a noun.

  LOL. Not here. ArthurTreacher (whoever he is) has a chain of fast food seafood joints across the US and features Fish and Chips. Americans think they're getting Lays with their fish.  :-D

  What a finish by Spieth...plays 14 through 17 in -5 after a miracle bogey (which could have been much worse) at 13.

  Congrats to the Champion Golfer of the Year!

  He sure slayed a few dragons there after that drive. No panic in the face, all determination. "I ain't gonna fold" written all over it.

  What a great back 9 duel between him and Kuchar. Kuchar makes a few of those near misses and he's right there. That eagle by Spieth had to crush him.

  Incidentally, is it my imagination or do Kuchar's clubs seem too short for him? Seems he was in a pretty stooped position to hit them, IDK.

  Ballsy performance from Spieth and he's not yet 24.  Lesser players would have folded after he missed the fairway by about three miles on #13.

  Gotta feel for Kuchar but his attitude was super - maybe he's just too nice?

  Great final day viewing for us TV punters.
