Englishman lost in playoff at Augusta for second time‘I could really sense what it would be like to win it’
Justin Rose says he feels “tormented” by a feeling of what might have been after losing a second Masters playoff. Eight years after losing out to Sergio Garcia at Augusta National, Rose was beaten on the first extra hole by Rory McIlroy, who holed from short range for birdie after Rose’s attempt had narrowly missed.
Rose had started the final round seven shots behind McIlroy, but made his 10th birdie of the day on the 18th in a closing 66 to set the clubhouse target, with McIlroy then missing from five feet for the title in regulation.
