Bradley had set up his birdie opportunity by spending money with the front right greenside bunker which has a shot he identified as his best all week.

"I couldn't have hit a better shot," said Bradley. "I had in regards to a 15 percent possibility of keeping that for the grass where I can putt it. It was one of the best shots I've ever hit.

"But Bill Haas... you need to provide him a lot of credit. It's great to view another belly-putter create a putt prefer that. I'm happy for him."

The course dried up a good deal after Mickelson had charged into the first-round lead with a stunning 66 and similar to others, he was not ever capable of going as low again, shooting two 70s and a 71 plus the final both he and Bradley, playing together in the final Titleist 910F-D Fairway Wood group, had each to birdie a final hole to thunderous applause from the banked amphitheater surrounding the 18th to really make it to the playoff

But there were some rare exceptions, a smiling, swash-buckling Spaniard, Sergio Garcia, being the best.

Within the best round each week on maybe the toughest day he went to an incredible 8-under that included two eagles before finishing using a magnificent 7-under 64 to leap the leaderboard from the obscurity of mid-table right into a tie for 4th with discount golf clubs Americans Dustin Johnson (71) and Jimmy Walker (69) and Australian Jarrod Lyle (7), just two shots out of the play-off at five under.

England's Justin Rose had another solid round, his second par round leaving him two under to the week, something world primary Luke Donald would have loved to get been able to state.

Having commenced using a solid 70, 72, 71 run, Donald posted a horror seven-over 78 on Sunday that sent him tumbling down leaderboard, his only compensation, perhaps, being that they was in good company.

In that area within the depths with him were likely Taylormade Burner 2.0 irons 2012 Ryder Cup rivals Rickie Barnes (8-over) and Stewart Cink (9-over).

Padraig Harrington, Ireland's three-time major champion, ended four over for that tournament.

Looking back on the dramatic closing moments of the final round, Haas said, coming from the range, "I expected the crooks to make it (the play-off). I said o my caddie, 'We're going to have to prepare for the playoff here.'
