Howell-watch

Lost to Justin Rose 3 and 2 in the third round of the WGC Accenture Match Play Championships.

He got behind pretty big pretty early, down five holes with five to play, but closed very strong, birdieing Nos. 14, 15 and 16 in a gallant comeback. Rose sank a tricky birdie as well on No. 16 to end the match, but I'm pretty impressed with how well he battled back.

This strong showing, coupled with the early departure of other top seeds, definitely won't hurt his standing on the PGA Tour Money List or the FedEx Cup standings. Only five weeks until The Masters.
