And I'm not trying to place any blame on Fooch for Justin's bogey on 11, but it goes, it points to the sheer complexity of trying to get everything right together.
Which you kind of need to do when you're coming back from a three-shot deficit in an attempt to win the Masters.
And Justin maybe didn't do that on 11 and 12.
And that is the difference in the way that the momentum just came out of his game.
And the three-putt, of course, on 13, I think that's the hole you could maybe look at and say it was the killer blow.
Because if he two-putts that and makes birdie, I mean, I was saying to Jen, he's now going from Amon's corner into Rose's corner because 14, 15, 16 is so often the place you see Justin go birdie, birdie, birdie and, you know, the theatrics start and it just didn't quite work out for him.
I'm sure he'll be gutted, but again, he's one example.
He's a fantastic golfer, fantastic sportsman, and I've really got nothing bad to say about him.
Can I just say as well, I was watching, there was quite a few shots yesterday where he chipped in on the first and Jason Day was in shot.
He held his putt on nine when Jason Day was in shot and he did something else.
and he kind of got the look from day and i thought these are two guys and very who have had very similar careers both been the world number ones um one major piece and and i was almost like day was watching rose admiring what he was seeing in him because i think jason day is an interesting golfer at the moment he's clearly playing great golf but i don't know that he's quite got the self-belief to match his game and he fell away and he's there watching justin who again and again and again in the big moments in golf and this sport is just delivering
And, you know, I think the admiration across the board for Justin is just, it's right up there and he must, he should be so, so proud.
Yeah, and in many ways, I would be as confident about Justin's chances at winning Ron Amink as Rory's and Shinnecock, because the amount of times you saw the shot tracer this week, Augusto,
when Justin hit a shot, especially with the irons, straight down the pipe, like straight at the target, exactly where he was trying to hit it.
