About Dimarco's shot, Nantz (sp?) said something like "How did that not go in". On replay, you can see that the shot was going too fast and off center. Those two factors caused it to miss. His accuracy was almost there, and his speed was a little too fast.

Or on the very first hole of the tournament Tiger has a wedge into the 1st green (not much unlike his wedge on the final round) and it hit the flagstick, ricochets off to the side, then rolls into the bunker! Tiger was simply better than DiMarco, but just barely.
