On Sunday, Italian golfer Francesco Molinari absolutely owned TPC Potomac at Avenel Farm, winning the Quicken Loans National in runaway fashion. He was absolutely on fire, shooting a 8-under-par round of 62 to win his first PGA Tour event by eight strokes.
On a day that saw Tiger Woods create some major waves, Molinari’s shining performance was all that mattered in the end. What he did on the back nine was the equivalent of a racer lapping the field during the last quarter of a race.
He was utterly untouchable.
Those watching from home had a great appreciation for what the Italian pro was able to accomplish. These are some of our favorite reactions to Molinari’s masterpiece.
