Honestly, I felt a little rushed out there for the last 12 holes. We got put on the clock pretty early, and then the first official went away, and then we put on the clock for the last three holes to try to make time up. And it's hard because you feel a bit rushed. You're playing some tough holes and our group has to deal with a lot more than any other group on the course.

Rory McIlroy, after winning the Masters, purchased all 1,100 remaining pin flags from the gift shop, commemorating his 17-year journey to the championship.

"Look, I feel the support of an entire country out there, which is a wonderful position to be in, but at the same time, you don't want to let them down."

Gotterup handled it all with poise to go with his great strength. He delivered all the right shots -- the short birdie putt on the par-3 12th to build a two-shot lead, the 10-foot birdie on the par-5 16th to restore a two-shot lead.
