>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.
