Just one putt needed. 11,15,16 just on the back nine were huge missed opportunities.gunan01 said:
Sam makes a few more of these putts inside 10 feet and he's in the top 12 (2024 Masters exemption) for sure.

23. 30 holes at Augusta with the course changing conditions from this morning to afternoon, the mental game just isn't quite there yet. Take the weather issues out, the triple pairings, weird start and stops, maintaining focus is an awful lot to handle.Choowey said:
So many opportunities this round
Yes, I know that. But this is the guarantee.aginlakeway said:Buck Compton said:Yep. So many chances. Now he has no birdie holes remaining and is going to pull off a crazy shot to get invited back next year.FTAG 2000 said:
If he made the putts today he was making the first two days he might be sitting in second all alone.
He was draining them the first two days and has had more chances today than either of those days.
He'll have plenty of chances to get back next year. It's not just limited to top 12 today.
A birdie on one of his next two holes could get him in, assuming everyone else between him and Rahm pars in.gunan01 said:

Birdie at 17 is highly unlikely after that drive.I Am A Critic said:A birdie on one of his next two holes could get him in, assuming everyone else between him and Rahm pars in.gunan01 said:

His pitching has been on. Just fantastic all week. It's been the chipping (and now putting today) that has sunk him. He's hit enough drives and approaches to be contending, even with his distance limitations vs. the big guys.bagger05 said:
Very nice pitch from Sam.
Yes, it could be, but some of itPahdz said:
Could some of Sam's putting woes be part of not having a caddie who has been on these greens a lot more than his coach? No basis in that just a question
Theres not enough golfers out there to get him back to 12.bagger05 said:
If he makes this and a couple people totally crap the bed coming home he could sneak in.
Kinda like Tiger making the cut.
Yeah there are. He's currently T14. It'd take a pretty spectacular meltdown from a couple people but it's possible.Buck Compton said:Theres not enough golfers out there to get him back to 12.bagger05 said:
