His round wouldn’t be enough, however, after Justin Rose posted six under with a birdie on 18.

“I was a little hungover. I won’t lie,” he said.

“I had too much to drink last night.

And I was so frustrated yesterday, that today was really, I wouldn’t say a write-off, but I didn’t feel I was in the golf tournament.

“Whether I shot 69 or 73 today, it wouldn’t have been heartbreaking. But as it happens, I shot 67. So, you know, it’s a funny game.”
