Henrik Stenson played one of the great rounds in major championship history on Sunday at Royal Troon with a 63 for a three-stroke win over Phil Mickelson and a new major championship record score of 264. It was stunning to watch as a spectator.

But the players who played against Stenson were just as stunned as you and I.

It would be a great tournament without them," said Zach Johnson, who finished 1 under and just 19 back of Stenson.
