Video: Thriller At Colonial As Scott Defeats Dufner In Playoff

AP's Stephen Hawkins on an impressive win by Adam Scott, who didn't have his best game, got off to a terrible start Thursday, then hung around long enough to score an impressive playoff victory over Jason Dufner at Colonial.

"Maybe added a little pressure for myself, trying to play like a No. 1. But I think the important thing was I realized that didn't mean playing perfect, and I certainly didn't play perfect all week," Scott said. "But the way you come back and get it done, and I felt like I certainly played like one of the best players in the world out there on the back nine."

Great line from Dufner after:

"It's tough to beat him. He's a great player. It's tough to concentrate, he's so good looking, too," Dufner said. "I thought maybe I could sneak one in there on 17, but he topped me."

Mike McCallister follows up with many notes and Tweets from a wild day at Colonial, where names out of the past like David Toms and Chad Campbell were in the mix with new blood like Spieth and Walker.

As John Strege wisely points out, this was a much needed boost from golf's star power division, which had been on vacation until the Masters and since.
