South African world number eight Retief Goosen won the $2.2 million Commercialbank Qatar Masters in January with a stunning birdie-eagle finish on the final two holes at Doha Golf Club. Going down the 587-yard par five eighteenth in joint second place, one shot behind Aussie left-hander Nick O?Hern, the South African knew a birdie might only be enough to force a play-off. But when O?Hern failed to make birdie, Goosen stepped up to drain a 35-foot eagle putt to finish on fifteen under-par (273), put his name on the trophy and leave O'Hern heartbroken.
