At the 18th tee, Bhatia, in the final group with Aaron Rai, was one-under for the day and had a total of 18-under. He needed a birdie to win and a par to get into the play-off. But he three-putted from 32 feet and his par putt failed to drop from six feet for a bogey and he fell to second with 72 in the final round and a total of 17-under.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
Rai had four pars in his last four holes for a 72 and at 17-under he was also in a tie for second with the other two behind Davis Thompson (68) and Min Woo Lee (69).<\/p>\r\n\r\n
Bhatia said, \u201cIt sucks. No other way to put it. I mean, just sucks.\u201d<\/p>\r\n\r\n
Bhatia hadn\u2019t made a bogey through 54 holes but broke that run on the par-4 third earlier Sunday in Motown. He got that one back immediately, draining a 32-foot birdie on the very next hole. Bhatia added a birdie on the seventh to move to 18-under and was steady enough for the next 10 holes until the par-4 finishing hole. It was his first three-putt of the week and his first miss inside 6 feet.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
Bhatia was looking for his second win of the season after capturing the Valero Texas Open in April. He also won last year\u2019s Barracuda Championship while competing on Special Temporary Membership.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
