Rose's Masters Dream Fades on Amen Corner
13 Apr
Summary
- Justin Rose led by two shots but fell back with late bogeys.
- Rose cited a crucial three-putt on the 13th as a turning point.
- Scottie Scheffler secured second place after a strong weekend performance.
Justin Rose expressed deep disappointment, calling his final round at Augusta National a "chance that got away" after relinquishing a lead.
Rose, a three-time runner-up, held a two-shot advantage before encountering trouble at Amen Corner. Back-to-back bogeys on the 11th and 12th, followed by a three-putt for par on the 13th, derailed his bid for a first Masters title.
He finished tied for third on 10 under, two strokes behind winner Rory McIlroy. Scottie Scheffler claimed second place on 11 under, completing a remarkable recovery after being 12 shots off the lead entering the weekend.
Tyrrell Hatton also made a significant charge, finishing in a tie for third after a strong back nine. The PGA Tour now heads to South Carolina for the RBC Heritage, with the next men's major being the PGA Championship in Pennsylvania.
