JON RAHM: A couple shots I keep going back, that stretch of 10, 11, 12, I was in position to put a little bit of pressure and I just didn't. But at the same time, I shot my lowest score ever for four days on this golf, which has usually been a challenge for me.
And Patrick played great golf, and he was four shots ahead of me, and even though I might have been the better man over the week, he earned it. He played amazing. That up-and-down after missing from 17, the second shot from 18 to almost make it is even more impressive.
I think you can say he won this. He played amazing golf.
Q. Not only did you play better than anybody else over 72 holes --
JON RAHM: Did I?
Q. Yes. In your heart of hearts, do you feel like you won this tournament?
JON RAHM: No, because I didn't. That's the reason why we have this system we have. In scoring when they show you the sheets and points, it felt really weird to have this feeling of disappointment of not winning on a day you are making $5 million. It just seems to me I'm making -- something doesn't add up, right.
And then I'm thinking, you know, yeah, I gave it my all. It wasn't enough. But it is what it is. I get to go home to my beautiful wife and family and rest up a little bit. The year is not over. We have a couple big events coming up and a couple big ones on The European Tour.
Even though seasonally the FedExCup and 2021 season is over, the year is not over. So go back home, rest up and keep on going.
