Video Description

In this shot, we drove the ball through the fairway in the light rough, about 130 yards away from the green. We are playing up a hill on an uphill slope. It is important to consider that when the ball is in an uphill lie, the clubface angle is effectively increased and the trajectory of the ball will naturally be higher than normal. Consider choosing one more club to accommodate for the higher, shorter trajectory. Frequently with this uphill stance a players stops rotating after impact and their arms accellerate past the body quickly, causing a hit a draw. Therefore adjust aim point to accommodate for this shot shapre.

Final round: Love for life after winning at Disney

11-9-2008

Davis Love III won the Children's Miracle Network Classic at Disney on Sunday, closing with an 8-under 64 for a one-shot victory over Tommy Gainey in the final PGA TOUR event of the year.

It was the 20th career PGA TOUR victory for Love, giving him a lifetime exemption. Among active players, only Tiger Woods, Vijay Singh and Phil Mickelson have won at least 20 times.

"I always questioned, 'Am I doing the right thing? Why am I still doing this?'" the 44-year-old Love said. "I didn't doubt my desire, or that I could still compete; it was just the little things I had to do."

Gainey, who had $65,405 in earnings heading into the final tournament of the year, shot 30 on the back nine including birdies on the final two holes for a 64. He made $496,800 to go from No. 228 to No. 148 on the money list. That gets him into the final stage of q-school, and his conditional status for being in the top 150 should get him about 15 starts next year.
