Blixt: "I haven't seen anything that good in an extremely long time."
/It was probably fitting that Jonas Blixt and Cameron Smith teamed to win the first Zurich Classic given that the duo never made a bogey. Leading from day one, the Jacksonville tandem--by way of Sweden and Australia--earn all sorts of exemptions and perks along with a $1 million check (each).
I loved Blixt's selfless quote, noted here by GolfChannel.com's Will Gray, which may capture the essence of why they may have been such a strong team:
"Seeing how he played golf, the sky's the limit for him," Blixt said of Smith. "Just watching these last four days, I haven't seen anything that good in an extremely long time."
Teryn's Schaefer's PGA Tour recap includes Smith's interview with Dottie Pepper where...well he couldn't come up with the words. In a good way!
Fittingly Smith made the winning putt. The playoff highlights from PGA Tour Entertainment are here.
