“I knew my best golf was yet to come and it was amazing to hit both putts. This goes for Seve, I know he always wanted to win this tournament.. This is too much to put into words, “said Rahmbo with a grin from ear to ear, out of sheer relief after a tense wait between putting the -6 at the clubhouse and Oosthuizen had no margin to catch up with him.
The one in Barrika He also made reference to his love affair with Torrey Pines, the field of San Diego (USA) in which he gained the respect and confidences of Phil Mickelson and where he proposed to his wife Kelley, which has now led him to the top of its trajectory. “This place is like where I grew up in the summers. I feel very confident here. I don’t know why but whenever I come, things happen. Once again it has happened,” he celebrated before lifting the trophy that confirms him as a great champion.
