Hands to win the bmw championship. Nope. Pretty weak effort considering how well hes putted the last two putts, actually. From 22 feet, comes up well short. Now a huge putt for dechambeau. Whos got it now just to stay alive and send it to a fifth Sudden Death Playoff Hole. A different kind of feeling. Hes had the chances to win the championship outright. What we dont know is if brysons rattled in his head about these putts that havent gone in. This is pretty short Putt Right here, but, you know, if hes rattled in his mind, you have to make this in your head. You have to be standing over this and hear a little voice in your head say, pick its good, and just knock it in. Youve made A Thousand of these. They play on. And theyll go back to 17. We were joking around David Feherty might not be back, but hell be back. What a clutch third shot for bryson right there. Not his strength, those short clubs. And he did what he had to do. And this putt was a nodoubter, dan. Four opportunities to win the championship that he wasnt able to take advantage of. Dechambeau with a Clutch Putt T dechambeau with a Clutch Putt T o were not as far from our goals as it may appear. Because things are coming back. Making now, the time to move forward. At u. S. Bank, our goal is getting you to where you really want to be. Because Side By side, theres no telling how far youll go. U. S. Bank. Well get there together. All right. Due to this extended coverage of the bmw championship, coming up next on the East Coast it will be the paralympics. The man in the vest is back on duty. Solid white versus the horizontal stripes. You want to avoid those horizontal stripes if youre not in the best shape, like some of us. These two just its been Match Play pretty much all day. And were all square. Its going to be very interesting to see what brysons got here. Now im hearing hes got the wedge for the third time. Certainly its a club hes capable of stiffing here. But on both occasions when hes hit the club already here today, it wouldnt have been enough to carry the water on the right. So, he has to keep the ball left if he hits wedge. A little help with the wind at the moment. Its flipped somewhat. Hes taking it at the flag again. This looks really good. Oh, look at that. Flies it in behind the hole with the wedge and backs it up. Right over the top of the flagstick. Beautiful. He flew that wedge best part of 190 yards. Cantlay has been hitting 8 iron the last three or four times hes been here. Yep. Hes got it again. No play left safe. Pretty much got to go at the flagstick. This is just sensational. This is crazy. What other superlatives are we missing . Its off the charts. Just amazing golf. Take a look at this one from above. A pair of darts at the 17th. Weve got One Gimme and a tester coming up. Just incredible stuff. You go back to the last hole alone, Bryson Dechambeau hit a Tee Shot in the water and survived it. With a great wedge, a terrific up and in on 18 for bryson. And then he comes here to 17 and stuffs that wedge, but cantlay says, no, sir. Not yet. Brysons going to need to make his putt to tie. I mean, this is the kind of event that is going to link Dechambeau And Cantlay for a long time to come, you would think. Both young guys. First time in Pga Tour History that two players finish 27 under par or better in the same 72hole tournament, and then they put on this sudden Death Playoff Show as if to say to everyone, no, youre not going to forget us and this duel too soon at caves valley. Only eight players in Tour History have shot lower than what they did. I think the whole dynamic of this day changed On 14 when cantlay out of the was moving a little bit and out of the corner of brysons eye, he caught patrick moving On 14 and he called him out. And i think it just changed the complexion of the day. These guys now, i believe cantlay is taking it personal. Im sure the media will ask him about it later. Its probably nothing. As far as im concerned, that was a big moment for patrick. Should we list the have to have putts again for cantlay before he lines this one up, which could end up being another must have . Absolutely nuts. I think its a must putt for bryson more than cantlay. I dont see how patrick can miss. Bones, there cant be much in it. Its not that long. I agree with you, david. I took a quick glance as i got over there, wanted to get out of the players way. Anything a touch left and it runs out of speed. Hes got that line on the ball exactly where he wants it. And he just sets up along that straight line. Yes. It continues. Yeah, i would say cantlays 24 putt here, another must have. I think the chances are pretty good. Well, its not dead yet. This is for all the marbles. Theres so much on the line. Yeah. This 2 1 2 feet, david. He hasnt missed a putt inside five feet all week. Neither have i, but i wouldnt fancy my chances on this one. I think hell be just fine. 43 of 43. Make it 44 of 44 and were on to a sixth Sudden Death hole. Dont go anywhere, david. Ill be right here. Dont go anywhere. Ill be right here, guys. Here we go again. What appeared to be a pretty scary Tee Shot at the start of the week, this guy has handled pretty well. Another look at how they just played this hole. The wedge again employed by dechambeau. This time he got all of it and it was gorgeous. And cantlay with an 8 iron, just when you think he might melt in the heat. This guys just so solid. Drops it infront. Neither one of these guys wants to give an inch. Its really impressive. This is the future of the game, these two players. Theyre both in their 20s. Theyre going to be around a long, long time. What a show they put on today. The whole week, really. 27yearold Bryson Dechambeau and 29yearold Patrick Cantlay putting on a show we will not soon forget. Theyve eclipsed that Watson Playoff all those years ago here. So, now dechambeau, whos been so good except for the last time they played this hole, he was able to survive it by hitting into the water, bones. Pga Tour Staff think these guys have time to play two more holes in terms of todays daylight. Sunset at 7 42 p. M. Its just after 10 past the hour. Beautiful drive here. Great adjustment. Right up the center. That was get you some of that. He walked after that thing. I think be if we run out of daylight here, bones, they ought to just line up all these bmws, turn the lights on and lets keep going. Good idea. Just keep playing 18, right . Well, needs to answer yet again. Okay. On we go. Perfect. Licking his lips. It just seems to be a repeat. Hits the fairway. Well behind dechambeaus blast. Right now weve matched the second longest playoff this season. They went eight holes at the travelers. man Go On, girl, Go On and get help thats it, girl [heartwarming music] man ah burke smart dog.

Theyve already played the 17th a couple of times. Paul, we keep talking about how great this duel is between Dechambeau And Cantlay. I mean, it is turning into one of the more memorable events in Pga Tour History. Weve had a lot of playoffs and long playoffs. The way they kept the battl neither one of these guys wants to give an inch. Theyre very competitive. Theres a lot on the line here. So much at stake with the Tour Championship next week. I mean, these two are going to be three shots apart at the start of next week. Cantlay is either going to be three shots ahead of bryson or three shots behind him. Theyre both shooting for their third win of the year. Theres a lot on the line here. Again, i mean, i dont want to overplay the Fac Bryson did call him out over there, cantlay, On 14. I think kind of made it personal. Theres been zero banter between the two. Just another reminder for those on the East Coast, coming up next on nbc will be the paralympics from tokyo presented by toyota. As we are now at 7 15 on the East Coast. Again, sunset about 7 40. Getting darker but theyre okay for now. The lights are starting to get pretty flat. Its getting kind of hard to follow the ball. But this time around cantlay has a little longer, 187 up this hill. Looks like it will exit. 6 iron delivers a beauty. A real, good chance there. Thats a great look. Hes already Saw Bryson Hit that putt. Bryson now from 152. Hes had 149, 149, 53 and 52 here. Incredibly consistent off this tee. Wedge, drawing it just left of the flag. Come down the hill. Here it comes. Here it comes. This might be first in wins here, dan. Cantlay with a really good look. Even though hes farther away. Hes putting straight up the hill. He already Saw Bryson Hit the putt. Again, this is the sixth Playoff Hole. Heres a look at how they played them. Exchanging birdies at the second time through 17 to keep it going. More entertaining and complicated than just that scorecard right there. No doubt. With all of the opportunities, the twists and turns in the Resolve Cantlay has showed and the Resolve Dechambeau has shown. Neither guy wants to give an inch, thats for sure. The play has just been extraordinary. Tell you what, during these tough times throughout the world, the Pandemic And Everything else, boy, sports has been a great haven. And golf has certainly represented sports with phil mickelsons big win at the Pga Championship earlier this summer. Boy, have we seen some incredible Golf Events unfold this year. Golf was the first sport back after covid. And, yeah, i think a lot of people have enjoyed what weve seen today, man. This has just been incredible. Im getting all kinds of Text Messages from friends saying this is the most exciting Thing Theyve ever seen. Were on the edge of our seats, too. Were fans just like you all are. Just loving what were seeing. Ill tell you what, guys, its been a while since we played the 72nd Hole But Cantlay made a birdie. He has to love the look of this going back up a hill. A putt he can be aggressive with. A putt he thinks he has a whole lot of knowledge about. Yeah, bones, it was 21 feet. Had to have it. Its a little less than that at 17 1 2 feet right now, but cantlay was a hair more even with the hole earlier. But this is a great look. Hes due again to make another putt. Wont be surprised if he buries this. Well, i think bones set it up pretty well. A putt hes seen, uphill. One he can be aggressive with. Id have to say, i would although longer, i would say this putts a little easier to hole than is dechambeaus. But that doesnt mean anything in the long run, does it . I think what weve seen, rog, i dont think anything means anything. Well, i think the difference is one is a little uphill, which you can play offense on and the other is a hair downhill. Depending on what happens here, you can have a little defense in your head. This for birdie. Oh, its on a great pace. Just had a feeling he was due. There is no Give Up in this guy. Finally a little emotion from cantlay as if to say, maybe that is the winner. Just maybe. When a clutch shot. He hit in here. And then the putt, bingo, baby. One of the most incredible performance with a putter coming down the stretch to perhaps win a Golf Tournament that we have ever seen. It is that good. It really is. I mean, hes hit super Tee Shots at the 17th hole. He has to hit a 6 iron into the same green his opponent is hitting a wedge. And he just did what he had to do there. No Give Up in that dog. Now bryson, i dont think it matters if its downhill now, guys. Yeah. As they say, next ones good. 89 for dechambeau to send it to a seventh Sudden Death Playoff Hole. And Patrick Cantlay has just pulled off one of the most amazing performances down the stretch that weve ever seen. The bmw champion. In incredible, dramatic style. Took down four huge names this year. J. T. And rahm, he took them down. He took down Collin Morikawa and now takes down the big bully bryson. Way to go. Pga Tour Win Number five for cantlay. But, by far, the most incredible. As we send you down to steve sands. Thank you very much. That was quite the show you guys put on from outside the ropes. Inside the ropes, how were you able to persevere out there, patrick . Same as i have been all week. I felt like i just tried to stay in my own little world.

As you go to East Lake and the championships, where does that say about your game . My game feels really good. It has since memorial. Im starting to putt like me again and its really nice. It took a little bit of a Victory Lap on this 18th Green after this long playoff to acknowledge the crowd. What was it like playing in this atmosphere, this cauldron once again . Its so nice to be back with fans. They were just so supportive all day. Theyve been supportive for the last four days. And, you know, just the chance of Patty Or Patty ice, im hearing it all week. Its fun. Its great to have them back. And they were awesome today. Speaking of patty ice, you look so calm on the outside. When youre standing over that putt, knowing you have a chance to get a victory in this Bryso Inside . Im just as focused as i can be. If i look the way i do, its because i am locked in and focused. I felt like that today. Congratulations. Thank you. Fan sports, its the best. Cantlay and dechambeau proved it today.
