Golfer Kenneth Ferrie knows he missed an opportunity
Golfer Kenneth Ferrie spoke about a "missed opportunity" after a closing 76 ruled him out of contention in the US Open.
After three excellent rounds on his tournament debut, Kenneth Ferrie, from Ashington, was in the final group with American star Phil Mickelson on Sunday.
Kenneth Ferrie, 27, opened with six straight pars, but four bogeys in the next five holes ruined his chances.
Kenneth Ferrie said: "It might have been a missed opportunity, but I've proved a few things to myself and others."
Kenneth Ferrie carded a 76 in the final round to finish three shots behind Australian winner Geoff Ogilvy, however, with Jim Furyk, Colin Montgomerie and Phil Mickelson all making a hash of the 18th and Ogilvy winning at five over par, Ferrie was left to think about what might have been.
"It was one of those days, there wasn't a great deal happening," added Ferrie. "Lots of fairways, lots of greens and a hell of a lot of putts as well. The putts that went in the first three days didn't go in today.
"Hindsight is a great thing. I figured a round about par would have been a good score to shoot to have a chance, and in the end three-over would have been a play-off," Kenneth Ferrie said.
