Miguel Jimenez has won the Hong Kong Open after another crazy final hole that mirrored the madness of the HSBC Champions tournament a week earlier.
Despite leading since the second round Karlsson only hit 5 fairways for the final round and never really got going. On the final hole he succumbed to the pressure executing a poor chip up the bank that almost finished where it had started. Jimenez only had to make a 2 putt to win the tournament, but inexplicably missed his first two putts keeping Karlsson in the tournament. Karlsson had a 3 foot putt to send the tournament to a playoff, but missed gifting Himenez the tournament.
Despite the madness of the final hole Himenez was a deserved winner and the victory is his second in three years at the Hong Kong Open.
He is another player I love to watch and I was very impressed with his final round (barring the final hole of course).
