Justin Rose expressed disappointment over a missed chance at Masters victory, citing a shift in momentum around Amen Corner as the turning point. Despite leading by two shots at one stage, Rose ultimately finished in a four-way tie for third place.
He attributed his failure to capitalize on a superb second shot at the 13th, where he three-putted for par, as a crucial moment that cost him the win. Rose praised the crowd's support throughout the week, but felt it was tinged with sympathy towards the end. Meanwhile, Scottie Scheffler secured second place with a bogey-free performance over the weekend, and Tyrrell Hatton made a remarkable surge up the leaderboard with a string of birdies, finishing in a share of third place. Hatton's motivation was partly driven by the prospect of returning to the Masters with his family next year, with his wife expecting a child in six weeks.
