Holmes on his delay: 'I was still trying to win'

SAN DIEGO A brutally long day of golf was made even longer for the days final group at the Farmers Insurance Open.The final threesome of Alex Noren, Ryan Palmer and J.B. Holmes were all in contention as they played the par-5 18th at Torrey Pines, with Noren and Palmer needing birdies while Holmes needed an eagle to match clubhouse leader Jason Day at 10 under.With 239 yards remaining for his second shot from the fairway, Holmes deliberated over his attempt for over four minutes before deciding to layup, a shot that found the left rough.It was between the 5-wood - I didnt think it was going to get there - and the 3-wood would have gone back there where [Noren] was (over the green), Holmes said. That pin being in the bowl, I thought I had a better chance of holing out with a wedge than I did trying to chip one in.The criticism on social media came fast.

Anytime today J.B., Luke Donald tweeted. Last group was over a hole behind, we can all blame J.B., and yes the player should take responsibility for their pace of play, but if they dont thats why we have Tour officials. They needed to step in a while ago.Asked about the delay on the 72nd hole, Holmes was unapologetic.I was still trying to win. Thats part of it, he said.Palmer, who birdied the 72nd hole to join the playoff but was eliminated on the first extra hole, said he didnt feel the round, which stretched nearly six hours, took longer than normal.I really couldnt tell because we were always up with the group [in front of his threesome], Palmer said. When you get the winds and these pin placements, pace of play is going to be slow the way this course is set up.Palmer was also asked about how long Holmes took on the final hole.We talked about it when we got to the green," Palmer answered. "He was 235 [yards] with a 5-wood and he said he didnt like his 5-wood.
