:13:53. > :14:18.

:16:43. > :16:48.Stenson, looking to pitch this short of the green, for sure. He needs to
:16:48. > :16:56.be left of centre if you look at the green. The rage will throw the ball
:16:56. > :17:05.towards the flag. It has come over. It might be up against the

:17:12. > :17:19.here, nothing happening so far. Some birdies on the first and fourth. He

:30:29. > :30:43.
:30:43. > :30:46.delicious bounce. Maybe it was meant to be, another couple of feet and he
:30:46. > :30:55.would have plugged into the bunker, and he has got a birdie chance.
:30:55. > :31:02.Fantastic. This simply must drop from Adam Scott. That is ugly, ugly,
:31:02. > :31:06.ugly, three from nowhere. They are making a present for Phil. It is
:31:06. > :31:12.like they have all got together and said, he has been coming here for a

:32:30. > :32:40.for that birdie, that, to get back to level par. It is a 6-iron for

:32:53. > :33:03.two misjudged shots. Phil Mickelson with the two shot lead. Wouldn't it
:33:03. > :33:13.
:33:13. > :33:23.be nice for him, if he could just pop this one in? Oh, bravo! What a
:33:23. > :33:23.
:33:23. > :33:33.player they have been together. -- what a pair. A brilliant finish, 34,
:33:33. > :33:37.

:33:51. > :33:56.
:33:56. > :34:01.a brilliant run, closing with two birdies. Westwood tidies up. The
:34:01. > :34:11.others now members of the supporting cast. Miracles can happen over the

:34:21. > :34:23.
:34:23. > :34:29.drop shots. -- dropped. A few trials and tribulations on the way to
:34:29. > :34:36.victory, but victory it surely is. Westwood is giving it everything he
:34:36. > :34:46.has got to try and reach the 17th green with the driver, a nice little
:34:46. > :35:01.
:35:01. > :35:11.up slope. Oh, no. It looks good. Now, that is a grandstand finish.
:35:11. > :35:21.
:35:21. > :35:31.72. Well, well, well. Can you follow Scott? Could be. Though, it just

:36:57. > :37:03.positive start to the final round. did not lay that badly. It came
:37:04. > :37:08.unstuck around seven, eight and nine. I went for a flyer at eight
:37:08. > :37:14.and a pub into a trap, then I got lucky with a live on my second shot
:37:14. > :37:20.and that plugged into a lie, so that is one of the defences of this golf
:37:20. > :37:25.course. Phil Mickelson played really well. I did not see any of it, but
:37:25. > :37:30.5-under par was as good a round of golf as I can remember. We spoke
:37:30. > :37:40.about the efforts he has made to learn how to cope with links golf.
:37:40. > :37:42.
:37:42. > :37:45.He has done it very well. He is such a marvellous pupil, and he has
:37:45. > :37:52.finally discovered how to putt on a links course consistently well.
:37:52. > :37:57.he drove so well, he has learned that the ball has run for miles and
:37:57. > :38:03.miles, and he just scored lower than anyone else, and that is all that
:38:03. > :38:13.you have to do to be a champion. those critical putts on the closing
:38:13. > :38:13.
:38:13. > :38:23.holes, the last two calls. -- holes. He joins the greats. And now Phil

:38:23. > :38:27.Mickelson, a winner at Muirfield. It looks good on your CV. This is how
:38:27. > :38:33.it all finished at the end of the day. Look at that magnificent score

:38:39. > :38:48.with a score of 281, the winner of the gold medal and champion golfer
:38:49. > :38:49.
:38:49. > :39:35.Apology for the loss of subtitles for 84 seconds
:39:35. > :39:39.of the year is Phil Mickelson. Well, this was a day that I will
:39:39. > :39:45.remember for my entire life stock of the best rounds of golf that I have
:39:45. > :39:53.played. And to be here with Amy and my children, to be able to share it
:39:53. > :39:58.with my main man, Bones, Steve Lloyd, it makes this moment even
:39:59. > :40:03.more special and I could not you more proud to be your champion. This
:40:03. > :40:09.is a victory that I never knew that I would have the shots for, the
:40:09. > :40:14.opportunity to win this tournament, here, and to do it, to play some of
:40:15. > :40:19.the best golf, probably the best round of my career, and breakthrough
:40:19. > :40:23.and capture this claret jug is some of the most fulfilling, probably the
:40:23. > :40:28.most fulfilling moment of my career, because it is something I was not
:40:28. > :40:32.sure that I would be able to do, and I want to thank everyone for the
:40:33. > :40:38.opportunity and for the support, and for supporting this great
:40:38. > :40:44.tournament, and I am very proud to be your touch -- champion. Thank
:40:44. > :40:54.you. One man finished under par, and that was Phil Mickelson. And that
:40:54. > :40:55.
:40:55. > :41:00.was a charge and a half coming from golf. He just surged through the
:41:00. > :41:06.field. And the par at sifting, the birdie at 17, that second shot was
:41:06. > :41:14.beautiful, and then the last, it really was a fantastic round and he
:41:14. > :41:18.deserves to win. 20 years trying to win this, he has got three of the
:41:18. > :41:26.four Majors, but it was a good championship from a British
:41:26. > :41:30.perspective, Lee Westwood Kim home with 4-over par today. Where did it
:41:30. > :41:38.start to unravel for him? At the third, he played a very bad tee
:41:38. > :41:42.shot. He was lucky to get away with five. From there on, it was four the
:41:42. > :41:47.shots and not too much going in and he just did not play a very good
:41:47. > :41:51.round of golf. He will know why, he will try to work out what happened,
:41:51. > :41:55.and there was no doubt he will be very disappointed, but he will want
:41:55. > :42:05.to know why he was hitting bad shots, why he did not feel right,
:42:05. > :42:07.
:42:07. > :42:11.why he did not hole certain parts. -- putts. Certainly, he will be
:42:11. > :42:18.looking at that but it was just not his day. Henrik Stenson in second
:42:18. > :42:23.place, and in the tie for third place, Lee Westwood and Ian Poulter,
:42:23. > :42:29.with another electrifying run where he had an eagle and three
:42:29. > :42:36.consecutive birdies. He was totally in the zone. All you could see was
:42:36. > :42:40.the fairway and the cup. He played some lovely shots, he was unlucky.
:42:40. > :42:45.He played with the driver on the fifth team, and it just caught the
:42:45. > :42:53.left edge, and he would have had an 30 yard shot down wind that would
:42:53. > :42:58.have did him a birdie chance. It was so close. He will have had a great
:42:58. > :43:08.day, a brilliant round. He was just a couple of shots too far back,
:43:08. > :43:09.
:43:09. > :43:15.starting the day. It was one of the great open Championships. And it was
