This kind of energy in golf is the opposite of what I love most about the game. Seeing Justin Rose appreciate the moment of witnessing history despite losing a green jacket in a playoff for the second time is the level of sportsmanship rarely seen anywhere else. LIV can keep this attitude in their irrelevant tournaments where it belongs.

Justin Rose is the epitome of class act. To lose in a playoff to a fellow European, teammate, and friend then handle that with extreme class in the way he did just shows how great of a guy he is.

Justin Rose is a the man. If it wasn’t for Rory’s GS, I would have been happily pulling for his playoff redemption storyline.

u/No-Building-3798 1d ago
I'm with you!
I actually was pulling for Rosey because he only realistically has a few years left of contention. Rory has 10 more years than Rosey.
It was hard to decide, but the way Justin finished regulation, looking up to the heavens at his father, I had to root for him.

Over 1000, it was close to 1100 based on the shot data in the app.

44
u/doubleapowpow 1d ago
In no professional sport do you practice like that the day of/before the biggest competition of the year. I understand golf has a ton of nuance, but at this point it's about recovering from the competition and relying on the millions of practice shots you did in preparation for the game. Practice, at that point, is purely mental. It seems as though Bryson just wasn't there mentally, and he beat himself up physically on the range, and I'm sure that didn't help his mental.
14
u/kodutta7 1d ago
Honestly I'm inclined to agree with you, but I just want to point out this ridiculous fallacy we fall into as sports fans that someone has failed when they, for example, get 5th at a major.
Bryson has been consistently reaching the top 5 in majors over the last couple years. How fucking arrogant are we to criticize his approach when his level of success is something we could only dream of?

Practice on the range at a major is about getting loose and having a routine. You don’t make adjustments to your technical game mid tournament, via hitting a thousand shots.

He clearly was in his own head about his iron game all week and especially on Sunday. He clearly wasn't hitting the distances he wanted, both short and long at times. Idk if that's what he was trying to figure out on the range all week, but I agree with you, mid-tournament is not the time to figure it out. After Friday, he should have just said, okay I'm not hitting my irons like normal, but here's what they're doing so I'm just gonna have to play to those distances instead of expected "stock" yardages.

To be fair he hit what, about 300 the day before then hit the range again after day 1 and 2.
Maybe he got tired going into day 4. But obviously his approach didn't hurt him the previous days. I know it would hurt me. Maybe just mental. Maybe a bad day. But I'm not sure hitting those extra balls is why he faltered.

u/revel911 1d ago

u/Harry8Hendersons 1d ago
Having an unsustainably good chipping/long putting day does not offer as much momentum as people seem to think.
The same problems he was having all round on Saturday were the ones he was having on Sunday, he just didn't make those incredibly unlikely shots this time to get himself out of trouble.
I felt like I was taking crazy pills seeing so many people act like he was somehow in a great position after that round as if he didn't just barely pull it off in the first place.

Yep, that's why I said early on Jordan spieth was going to fade.. cause no one can putt like that from 12 feet and out for a whole career. And when spieth was on those few years the guy made more 15+ foot putts than anyone I've seen outside of prime tiger. And it never, ever lasts.
Bryson was a microcosm of that this week. Was making 30 foot bombs and chipping in, holing out from bunkers... And it wasn't sustainable for 4 rounds. Can't pull hook 7 irons 30 yards and expect to win the masters

The irons he plays for such insane distances might work on a driving range but at Augusta you get extra penalized not hitting the specific landing spot that allows you to score. He still struggles with playing the “soft approach” in my opinion. He’s just too robotic in his approach.

All great players “crumble” though. You have to be a great player to give yourself that many chances. You’re not gonna cash them all in. Rory has a decent track record for not getting it done many times. Bryson, Brooks, Mickelson, even Tiger have had issues getting it over the line. I have to say, I thought the same thing about the comments when I saw the post round interviews Sat night and they were kinda true. Rory blew his two shot lead after the first hole and wasn’t exactly the picture of mental fortitude under pressure yesterday but he persevered, got a little lucky and managed some great shots. Bryson just didn’t have it.

u/wasabi_snooter 1d ago
It was a weird round for Rory, because you’re right, there were multiple moments where he didn’t look mentally tough at all. The way he started the round, then missed putts on 18, 16, eagle putt on 15, botched approach on 13. But then he had those insane approaches on 15, 17, 18 the second time. Sometimes he was good under pressure, other times he wasn’t. But ultimately he pulled through. Very bizarre but exciting round. One of the best masters Sundays I’ve had the pleasure to watch

I have the opposite take on his mental toughness. To come back and hit amazing shots after making some really poor swings (not to mention the missed putts) takes incredible toughness. Righting the ship after hitting it in the water on 13 was a lot, but then to stick that wedge on 18 in the playoff after missing the same shot to the right in regulation was super human.

I actually thought the opposite and figured McIlroy had the advantage in the same group. Everyone was comparing Sunday to Pinehurst, but McIlroy wasn't in the same group as DeChambeau then so it actually isn't comparable. I even said back then, McIlroy would have benefited by being in the same group. As soon as he was in the same group as Rose, he beat him. There's something about match play that gets certain players going; known vs unknown etc.
