Xander Schauffele's triple-bogey hands Hideki Matsuyama 2021 Masters

It was the hole that decided the Masters, and one that Xander Schauffele won't forget for a long time coming.

Schauffele's charge to the green jacket was rendered all but over after a disastrous triple-bogey in the final round - his first at a Major across a total of 1041 holes.

The American had pulled off four consecutive birdies to peg Hideki Matsuyama's lead back to just two strokes as the pair approached the par three 16th.

His tee shot rolled into the water, and then following his drop, the third sailed into the seats behind the green. After an approach shot, he two-putted to end on a six.

Matsuyama himself bogeyed the hole to drop to -11, but remained two strokes ahead of new second-placed Will Zalatoris.

Schauffele's blunder saw him drop off Matsuyama and effectively hand the Japanese player his first Masters title.

It's a hole Schauffele won't soon forget, and judging by the reaction from Twitter, neither will fans.
