The Masters - Poll result: Perry's chance gone

Eurosport - Tue, 21 Apr 08:16:00 2009

Eurosport-Yahoo! readers have spoken and the majority of you believe Kenny Perry will never win a Major.

Kenny Perry reacts after making bogey at 18 in the final round of the Masters at Augusta National, April 2009 - 0

Of those polled, 76 per cent (480) voted against the veteran overcoming his heart-breaking near-miss at the Masters, with only 24 per cent of the opinion he can still bring home a big one.

The 48-year-old lost out in a play-off to Angel Cabrera at Augusta, having taken a two-shot lead to the 17th and penultimate hole of his final round.

Perry made bogey and followed it with another bogey at the last to enter into a three-way play-off with Cabrera and fellow American Chad Campbell.

Campbell was knocked out at the first hole of the play-off, before Perry failed to make par at the second to hand Cabrera his second Major title.

Perry would have become the oldest Major winner in history had he triumphed.

  1. A lot of us expected great things from Kenny in the US­ Open...miserable finish, but having said that..could he­ still do the business if he is quick about it ?
