Yes very funny. But then golf is a funny game where a short dumpy and relatively unknown player can beat a giant.

4 and 2 means that Clark was up 4 holes with two hole left and the match was stop there because there was no way that Tiger was going to win... not enough holes left.

After the 15th hole, Clark was ahead by 3 holes with 3 holes remaining (a dormie, a number of holes up equals number of holes remaining). Which meant that Tiger had to win the remaining holes, 16th, 17th and 18th, to stay in the match. But it turns out that Clark won 16th as well, giving him a 4 and 2 victory.
