I was there with my Father, both of our first ever PGA event, and no kidding found a spot and stood on a hill perfectly even with the 15th green 10 minutes before Rory and Michael came off the 14th green. We couldn't see the tee box perfectly but my Dad said "It's in the air!" and I seriously focused on the cup expecting to see the ball drop in my periphery and watched it fall directly into the cup!

that moment at 1:03 when he looks back at his caddie and actually starts to cry a little. he literally forced himself to not believe what everyone else was telling him including Rory twice what had happened. then the realization that it was no joke and it was the best moment of his life being filmed and lived in real time! then seeing him break down when he heard that his son said it was the best day of his son's life was the icing on the cake. he deserves all of this and cant wait to see him in the future!!
