The New Paper

SPAIN'S Sergio Garcia tried his best.

But it just wasn't good enough to upstage Padraig Harrington.

Garcia came out strong in the fourth round, opening with a birdie and eagle and was tied with Harrington after 16 holes.

His undoing proved to be a shaky putter on the final two holes. He made bogey on 18, missing a 10-foot putt for par.

'Unfortunately, sometimes things just don't go the right way,' said the Spaniard.

'That is the way it goes. I feel like I played well enough to win. But it didn't happen. That's pretty much all I can ask of myself.'

Garcia said he is trying to take the positives from this experience.

'Every time you are out there trying to win a Major, there can only be one winner,' Garcia said.

'I feel like I putted well today, just a couple of putts that didn't want to go in.

'It is hard when you give it your best and the end result is not what you wish for.'
