Page 12 • The Battalion Monday • April 15, i Norman chokes, Faldo takes Masters title for third time 'The White Shark' shot a stunning 78 Sunday, in what is being termed the greatest collapse in Masters history. AUGUSTA, Ga. (AP) — Greg Norman shot a startling 78 Sunday in the greatest col lapse in Masters history, giv ing Nick Faldo his third green jacket and sixth major champi onship. It was the sixth time Nor man had taken a lead into the final round of one of the Grand Slam events only to lose. But none was as shocking nor as complete as the unraveling that began on the ninth hole and ended in the water in front of the 12th green. “It’s the most nerve-wrack ing course in the world,” Faldo said. “It’s as simple as that.” In that four-hole stretch Norman went from three strokes ahead to two behind, enabling Faldo to play the kind of golf he does best — methodi cal, precise, controlled. Faldo’s closing 67 — the low est score of the day — put him at 12-under-par 276, five strokes ahead of Norman, who started the day with a six-stroke lead. Phil Mickelson finished third at 282. But the only two players on the course who really mattered were Faldo and Norman. It was reminiscent of the third-round confrontation be tween Faldo and Norman at the 1990 British Open at St. Andrews. Playing together, they start ed the day tied and Faldo beat him 67 to 76 and went on to win the championship. Norman would have needed only an even-par round in the final round to win. “Obviously, I didn’t play as well as I could,” Norman said. “Things didn’t go my way. Nick played solid and steady and it was all my mistakes.” While Norman, who has fin ished second in a major cham pionship eight times, had to carry that history with him over the hills and across the treacherous greens of Augusta, Faldo had the comfort of his past successes. In 1989, Faldo trailed Scott Hoch by three strokes going to the back nine at Augusta and won in a playoff. The next year he trailed Raymond Floyd by two strokes going to the last nine and again won in a playoff. Now, only Jack Nicklaus with six and Arnold Palmer with four have won more Masters than Faldo and only 10 players in the long history of golf have won more major titles. It was Faldo’s first victory in a major since the 1992 British Open. Norman’s collapse overshad owed a great round of golf by Faldo. No one shot lower than his 67. And no one, except per haps Norman, played under as much pressure. Faldo got into the spirit of the showdown between the two dominant golfers of the last decade on the first hole when he chose to putt out from 2 feet rather than marking, putting added pressure on Norman’s 4- foot par putt. He missed. F'aldo got within three strokes with a 22-foot birdie on No. 8, then Norman fell apart. He spun his approach shot back off the ninth green and missed a 10-foot par putt after a poor chip. He missed another 10-footer for par on No. 10 af ter missing the green left and three putted No. 11, missing the par putt from 30 inches. Then on No. 12, for the sec ond day in a row, Norman left his tee shot short in Raes Creek. While he was able to re cover for a great bogey on Sat urday, this time he made a 5. Faldo was content to make pars during this stretch and pulled two ahead. “I had to put my head down and grind as hard as I could,” Faldo said. Both players birdied the two par 5s, Nos. 13 and 15. Then Norman ended any chance he Sc had when he hit into the wate on the par-3 16th hole. Faldo finished his fabulous day by making a birdie on No, 18 from out of the fairwaj /ol. 102, No bunker.
