How to finish off that good round

I thought the PGA Championship this morning was fantastic. I had an inkling that it was time for Tiger to be overtaken in a final round and it proved to be true. Y.E Yang winning will be great for golf and think of the frenzy this will cause in some parts of Asia? The...
