Report Card
How the top 10 players on the World Ranking entering the PGA Championship fared
- 6. Sergio Garcia, T-2, 279 (-1)
- Grade: A-
What worked: For the most part, his youthful exuberance returned, and he was just out of the top 10 in GIR.
What didn't: Just as at Carnoustie his entire game faltered down the stretch with a major on the line.
2008 recap: Though he lost again to Harrington, Oakland Hills salvaged a below-average year in majors.
- 7. Geoff Ogilvy, T-31, 291 (+11)
- Grade: C-
What worked: Hit eight fairways and 11 greens in a final-round 70, his best figures of the week.
What didn't: Missed nine straight greens in the third round en route to a four-over 74.
2008 recap: Hasn't missed a cut at a U.S. major since '03, but had just three rounds at par or better in '08.
- 8. Adam Scott, MC, 150, (+10)
- Grade: F
What worked: There were few positives for Scott. The best you can say is he rebounded to shoot 73 Friday.
What didn't: Hit just three fairways Thursday, at one point missing nine in a row. Also had four three-putts.
2008 recap: It's hard to believe the hand injury hasn't hurt him. Has gone eight majors without a top-10.
- 9. Stewart Cink, MC, 151, (+11)
- Grade: F
What worked: He didn't have a three-putt, something no other player on this list can claim.
What didn't: Hit only 10 fairways and made just three of nine sand saves in two rounds.
2008 recap: Finished T-3 at Augusta while on a hot streak but is slumping as the Ryder Cup nears.
- 10. Steve Stricker, T-39, 292 (+12)
- Grade: C-
What worked: Hit 16 fairways and 26 greens in rounds one and four, resulting in scores of 71 and 69.
What didn't: Hit 10 fairways and 19 greens in the middle two rounds when he shot 75-77.
2008 recap: Similar to '07. Had a MC at Augusta and a top-10 at the British for a second year in a row.
