it just seems that this little par 3 rears its ugly head at the worst moment...wow...i am still stunned...in the days of 320 yd drives a little par 3 is the killer...
Jordan handled the press extremely well after that nightmare. I thought the veterans always said forget that pin on 12, aim for the middle of the trap.

Speith and his caddy were heard targeting the tv camera, a line 20 feet to the left of the pin so you're right, that's essentially right over the front trap. His shot was 10+ feet right of the pin so he missed his target line by 10+ yards.....plus was 5-7 yards short. Just an awful shot.
When I play, my last thought (if I have one) before I swing is telling myself again not to hit it to THE ONE PLACE I can not afford to hit the ball to.....though for the record being aware of the worst spot doesn't mean I still don't hit it there. Used to be when I was a good golfer I targeted shots to the best spot.....now it's easier targeting trying to avoid the worst spots.
No doubt. You really don't see pros get "stuck" like that very often with short irons - and 12 wasn't the only time. Maybe he was standing to close to it, maybe his hands were just repeatedly late, maybe dropping to deep to the inside.....or something, because he was repeatedly getting in a position where he could not "release" without pushing the ball dead right with no power (the classic "stuck" / "block" position).
I love the British Open - get up early, get the coffee going and watching golf at 0600. The best part is when the BBC crew joins American TV and you get to listen to the great Peter Aliss, what a treat. No one has better stories. The Masters - awesome. The PGA Championship - tremendous - Glory's Last Shot.Not that anything I say matters but I believe the British is the greatest tournament in the world and any such player who wins it is the best.

But nothing compares to the greatest championship of them all. Just the name gives me chills. The hardest courses. The toughest rough. The slickest greens. The narrowest fairways . . .
