The 2012 Open reminded us how cruel the game of golf can be. Legendary sports writer Jim Murray summed it up best when he wrote, "Sometimes you win the Open and sometimes it wins you." Today, Adam Scott experienced the latter part of that statement.
History will remember the 75th Masters as one of the most dramatic and compelling of all time. There were no iconic moments like Jack winning at 46 in '86 or Tiger's win for the ages in 1997. No, the 2011 Masters validated the old adage that the tournament doesn't begin until the back nine on Sunday.
