Yeah, I had Scotty. I got the worst break of my entire career on 12. That’s a massive 11 was playing as hard as I could ever remember and I hit one of the best sixirons of my life and then Scotty made bogey. He was the group behind me. So I was one or two back and I got on 12 and one of the rare shots where the moment I mean it’s such a scary shot when you’re in the thick of it and I aimed it right over the middle of the bunker and it was one of those stay down on it and just drive this nine iron and I hit it. It was one of those rare times where I hit the shot and I said, “Holy, I did it.” Like I pulled it off. I’m going to be in the middle of the green, two putt, and I’m going to have six holes to beat Scotty to win a Masters. And uh you can’t really see cuz it changed shadows and I don’t have good eyes. Then we hear a groan and we get up there and it’s in the ivy between the bunker and the bushes. So the bushes, it rolls back. The bunker it would be hard. I would have made probably bogey, but it’s between it in this little strip of ivy. We barely found the ball. And I thought it flew back there like me and my caddy were kind of sick, Joe. We like couldn’t believe it. Yeah. And when we watched the video back, it landed on the fringe and hit like a rocket ship and bounced up into the ivy. I made double and then had literally no chance. It just sucks that you you like you said, you live for it and you I pulled it. I did exactly literally exactly what I was trying to do and it just got jettisoned.
