Hoʻololi nā mea hoʻokūkū hoʻokūkū ʻo Thomas e lanakila i ka White Tigers ma hope o De Chambord T3

ʻO Justin Thomas

　　Ma Malaki 15th, ka manawa o Beijing, ua hāʻawi ka mea pāʻani ʻAmelika Hui Pū ʻIa ʻo Justin Thomas i kahi pepa pane kokoke loa i ka manawa kūpono, e waiho ana i kahi hoʻomaka paʻakikī o ka makahiki. Ma ka Lāpule, ka manawa o Florida, ua alualu ʻo ia mai nā hahau he 3 ma hope, a me kahi pāʻani wiwo ʻole, ua hāʻawi ʻo ia i nā hahau he 68, nā hahau he 4 ma lalo o ka pā, a ua lanakila i ka hoʻokūkū pāʻani "Fifth Big Game".

　　ʻO ka helu ʻai ʻehā a Justin Thomas he 274 (71-71-64-68), ʻo ia ka 14 under-par, mai ka huina o 15 miliona US kālā i ke kālā makana i ka 2.7 miliona US kālā, a me nā helu ʻehā o ka FedEx Cup a me 80 honua. nā kiko. Ua lilo 'o ia i' âlapa no ka pâʻani pôpeku e lanakila i ka Grand Slam, ka Poʻokela Pôpeku, Pâʻani FedEx a me ka World Golf Championship. He aha ka ʻoi aku ka maikaʻi o ka manawa nāna e hana i kēia.

　　Ua ʻōlelo ʻo ia e hiki ke hoʻohālikelike i kāna hana mai ka tee a i ka ʻōmaʻomaʻo i kēlā me kēia manawa i kāna ʻoihana. ʻIke maopopo e pono ʻo ia i kēia e paʻi i ka "tiger keʻokeʻo" ʻo Lee Westwood. Ua laki ʻole ka hope a ua pau i ka hoʻokūkū no ka pule hope ʻelua. ʻO Lee Westwood, 47 ona makahiki, i kiʻi ʻia e Bryson DeChambeau ma ka Arnold Palmer Invitational i kēlā pule aku nei a ua hala hoʻokahi kī. I ka lua hope loa o TPC Sawgrass, ua hopu ʻo ia i kahi manu manu he 15 kapuaʻi, akā ua eo pū kekahi i hoʻokahi kī ʻana.

Ua kī ʻo Lee Westwood iā 72, ʻehā mau puni o 275 (69-66-68-72), 13 ma lalo o ka pā, a loaʻa iā ia kahi hōʻoia $ 1.635 miliona no ka wahi ʻelua.

　　ʻOiai ʻo Bryson DeChambeau i hoʻouka i kahi hana kūʻē ma nā puka ʻeiwa i hala, me ka ʻaeto 11 kapuaʻi ma ka lua 16, ʻaʻole lawa ia. Ua hāʻawi ʻo ia iā 71, 276 (69-69-67-71), 12 ma lalo o par, ʻaʻohe bogey me nā lua he 12 i hala, a ʻo Brian Harman (Brian Harman) i hāʻawi he 69 i loko o ʻelua mau kaʻina kau. Harman) nakinaki ʻia no ke kūlana ʻekolu. ʻOiai ʻo ia, ua hoʻomau ʻo ia i ka wahi kiʻekiʻe i ke kūlana Cup FedEx.

Ua kī ʻia ka hōkū ʻEnelani ʻo Paul Casey 70, ua kī ʻia ka American Talor Gooch (Talor Gooch) 67, a ua hoʻopaʻa ʻia nā mea ʻelua no ka ʻelima me 277, 11 ma lalo o ka par.

Ua komo pū ʻo Joan Ram o Sepania i ka ʻumi kiʻekiʻe. ʻOiai me kahi 73 i ka puni hope, ua nakinaki ʻia ʻo ia no ka ʻeiwa, akā ma hope o kēia pule, e ʻoi aku ka kiʻekiʻe o kona kūlana honua e Justin Thomas, ka hope. Neʻe ʻia mai ke kolu a i ka lua.

No ke ao holoʻokoʻa ka helu 1 ʻo Dustin Johnson no ka pule holoʻokoʻa, me 287 (73-70-73-71), 1 ma lalo o par, a me Jordan Spieth (75) a me nā mea pāʻani ʻē aʻe, i nakinaki ʻia no nā kūlana he 48.

　　Ua hoʻomaka maikaʻi ʻole ʻo Justin Thomas i kēia makahiki. I ka hoʻokūkū Sentinel, ua hala ʻo ia i kahi putt pokole a hāwanawana i kahi ʻōlelo anti-gay. Minamina, ua huki ʻia kēia ʻōlelo hoʻohiki ʻaneʻane lohe ʻole ʻia e ka microphone a hoʻouna ʻia ma o ka relay TV, a ua alakaʻi ʻia i kāna mea kākoʻo lole wā lōʻihi ʻo Ralph Lauren (Ralph Lauren) e koho ana e ʻoki me ia, a ʻo kekahi mea kākoʻo ʻo Shang i hōʻāhewa iā ia i ka lehulehu. Ua loaʻa iā Justin Thomas kahi manawa e lanakila ai i ka Phoenix Open, akā ua lohe ʻo ia i ka nūhou no ka make ʻana o kona kupuna kāne ma mua o ka hoʻomaka ʻana o ka puni hope.

　　ʻOiai, ʻo ke kolepa ke aʻo ʻohana a Thomas, a ʻo kona kupuna kāne kekahi kaʻi. ʻIke maopopo ʻia ʻo Justin Thomas e kēia nūhou, a ua heʻe ke kūlana kiʻekiʻe o Phoenix i kahi kaula no 13, a laila hoʻopau ʻia i ka Genesis Invitational. ʻAʻole ia a hiki i kēia Lāpule i loaʻa iā ia kahi manawa kūlike i TPC Sawgrass. Hana nui ʻo ia i kēlā me kēia hahau a hāʻawi i kahi hana kupaianaha.

　　Ua lanakila ʻo Justin Thomas i ka birdie-birdie-ʻaeto-birdie i ka hoʻololi, no ka mea he ʻelua mau lōʻihi lōʻihi mai 50 kapuaʻi ka loa i lanakila loa iā Lee Westwood, kahi o ia mau mea i hana ʻia ma ka lua 16. ʻO ka pā ʻelima. Ua hopu ʻo ia i ka manu me nā pahu kuʻi ʻelua, ʻoiai ka lua ʻōmaʻomaʻo mokupuni 17 i kau ai i ʻelua pā.

　　Eia nō naʻe, pono ʻo Justin Thomas i kahi pana maikaʻi e palekana ai. Ke kū nei i ka pale wai ma ka ʻaoʻao hema o ke alaloa ma ka puka 18, ua kī ʻoi ʻo ia i ka pōpō i waho, ka ballistic mai ka ʻākau a ka hema, lele i luna mai ka lei o ka mauʻu mauʻu mua, a pae pono i ke ala nui.

Ua hoʻouka ʻo ia i ka ʻōmaʻomaʻo a hoʻouna i ke kinipōpō i ka lepa o ka ʻōmaʻomaʻo. ʻO kēia ka manawa mua i hala i ka ʻōmaʻomaʻo i ka lā holoʻokoʻa. Eia nō naʻe, i kēlā me kēia hihia, ua kūleʻa ʻo ia me ʻelua mau pahu paʻi a lanakila i ka lanakila 14GA PGA Tour o kāna ʻoihana.

"I kēia lā ua hana nui wau," wahi a Justin Thomas. "Mai ka tee a i ka ʻōmaʻomaʻo, ʻo kēia paha ka pōʻai maikaʻi loa o koʻu ola. Ua ʻike wau i kekahi mau mea pupule ma ke kīwī i ka wā ma mua, a hauʻoli nui wau i loko wau ma ka ʻaoʻao ʻākau. ”

　　Ua hana ʻia paha nā mea pupule i kēia lā, akā ua hana ʻē ʻia i ke kakahiaka nui. Ua lanakila ʻo Bryson De Chambeau i ka hoʻokūkū hoʻokūkū ma Bay Hill. Ua kuʻi ʻo ia i kahi poʻo i kahi ʻia i ka par-4 ma ka hā o ka lua. ʻO ka hopena, ua lele wale ke kinipōpō ma kahi o 140 iwilei a laila hāʻule i loko o ka wai. Ke hoʻomaka nei mai ka tee mua, aia ma kahi o 230 mau iwilei mai ka ʻōmaʻomaʻo i pale ʻia e ka pale wai. Ua kuʻi ʻo ia i ka kinipōpō me kahi hao 5, pā i kahi kaomi, a hoʻouna iā ia i ka ʻākau o ka ʻōmaʻomaʻo ma kahi o 40 iwilei.

“E ke kāne maikaʻi! ʻAʻole maopopo iaʻu ka mea i hana ʻia. ” Ua ʻōlelo ʻo ia i ka caddy, "ʻAʻole au i hana i kekahi mea e like me kēia ma mua."

　　Ua ale ʻo Bryson DeChambeau i kahi bogey pālua, akā ua pāʻani maikaʻi ʻo ia i ke koena o ka manawa a noho i ka hoʻokūkū. I kona kī ʻana i ka ʻaeto ma ka lua 16, loaʻa nō iā ia kahi manawa. Aia ʻo ia i loko o 2 mau pana i kēlā manawa, akā iā Justin Thomas e ʻoki ana i ka lua 17, ua nalowale kona manaʻolana e lanakila.

　　Ua hoʻomaka ʻo Lee Westwood ma ka puka ʻehā a pono e hoʻokomo i kahi putt 8 kapuaʻi e mālama i kahi bogey. Ma waho o ka lua o ka lua, par 5, ua hoʻouka ʻo ia i ka ʻōmaʻomaʻo mai nā nila kui, kuʻi ka pōpō liʻiliʻi i nā lālā ʻelua, a laila hele i loko o ka wai, a bogey ʻo ia.

　　Akā ʻaʻole mamao ia mai ke alakaʻi. I ka ʻoiaʻiʻo, me kahi putie birdie he 8 kapuaʻi ma ka lua 14, ua loaʻa hou iā ia ke kēpau paʻa.

　　Aia kona manawa kūpono ma ka lua 16th, ua hoʻomaka ka nalo o ka lua 5 par. I ka lua o ka pana, ua ku ʻo ia i kahi ʻoka nui a hāʻule i loko o ke one. Ua kuʻi ʻo ia i ka bunker i mua o ka ʻōmaʻomaʻo me kāna kī ʻekolu. Me ka hopu ʻole ʻana i kahi manu i ka pae ʻo Justin Thomas, ka mea i hoʻomaka i ka hui ma mua, hiki iā Lee Westwood ke hoʻopakele wale i ka pā, a mālama ʻia ka hopena ma hope o hoʻokahi kī.

　　Ma ka lua 17, he putt birdie lōʻihi kā ke kanaka ʻEnelani, a ua pahu ʻo ia i loko o ka lua he 7 kapuaʻi. Ua alo ʻo ia i kekahi pā nui put, akā ua haʻo ʻo ia.

　　Aia ʻo Justin Thomas ma waho o ka laina hoʻopau ma hope o ka pau ʻana o nā puka ʻeiwa ma ka Pōʻalima. Eia naʻe, kī ʻo ia i 64 ma ka Pōʻaono a komo i ka hoʻokūkū. I kēia lā ua hoʻomaka ʻo ia me 7 pars a bogeyed ma ka lua o ka lua me ʻekolu mau pahu paʻi. Akā ma ka lua 9th, ua pā ʻo ia i ka ʻōmaʻomaʻo me nā kī ʻelua a manu me nā putts ʻelua mai 25 kapuaʻi. A laila ma ka lua he 10, ua kī ʻo ia mai ka 131 iwilei a i ka 6 kapuaʻi e hopu i kahi manu. Ma ka lua 11th, ua kipaku ʻo ia i kahi aeto ʻaeto 20 kapua ma ka pa ʻelima. Ma ka lua 12, he 75 wale nō ona mau kapuai ka mamao ma hope o ka hoʻomaka ʻana. A laila ua pā ʻo ia i 12 ʻīniha i ka lua a hopu i ka manu make e kūʻē i ka kime ʻoi loa o ka makahiki a lanakila loa.

　　Ua pau kēia i ka makahiki piha o ke kau ʻana o ka PGA Tour. ʻO Justin Thomas kahi lālā o ke Kōmike Aʻoaʻo Hoʻolālā a ua komo i ka hana ma hope o nā hanana o ke kau e hoʻomaka hou. Ma ka hoʻolauleʻa makana, ua kū ʻo ia ma kahi o Jay Monahan, ka pelekikena o ka PGA Tour, ka mea e hauʻoli loa ma hope o hoʻokahi makahiki, ua hoʻi ka huakaʻi ma ke ala. No Justin Thomas, ʻo ka manawa maʻamau no ka hoʻōla he ʻekolu mau mahina. Ua hele i waho ʻo ia mai ka haze o anti-homosexuality a me ka make o kona kupuna kāne.
