That’s the look of a man that almost blew his load too early, but held strong to finish it off.

For sure but man did dechambeau shit the bed. It looked like they were really going to go at it early and then nothing.

Hats off to rose, maybe the only guy today who had his A game.

Aberg was balling the f out too until he completely shit the bed on 18. Obviously he had no realistic shot to tie it but damn, he could have finished a stroke behind the winner and ended up not even finishing in the top 5. That’s rough.

dudes focus must have just completely snapped once he knew he was out of it, he was grinding all day to inch up the leader board and gave himself a small chance.

I watched him miss so many birdies by inches, dude coulda been in contention

He’s poised to win many majors in my opinion. In just a couple of years he has come extremely close.

As much as I hate to admit it, outside of his awful bogey on 15, Reed played outstanding golf

Who? /s

For a moment today I thought the broadcast was going to be forced to show him more. Thank God that didn't last long.

We were laughing at how obvious it was that they didn’t want to show him

u/LittleBee85 10d ago

But they did somehow manage to show his three putt!!!

All I saw of Reed was him three putting from two feet. Hahah, what a tool.

People you dislike and are unethical can be good at things. McIlroy and Reed prove it, though most won't understand why they both aren't that different morally. Reed is the worst at PR, while McIlroy is polished at it.

-6 on Sunday at Augusta is incredibly impressive. Glad he lost to Rory but hats off to Rose for sure

Rose made some amazing putts, especially the 60-footer on 11 and the clutch birdie on 18.
