Oosthuizen settles for history with double-eagle on No. 2
AUGUSTA, Ga. — Even if he doesn’t have a place in the champion’s locker room at the Masters, Louis Oosthuizen can say he made history.
On Sunday, Oosthuizen got to the playoff on the strength of his double-eagle but he didn’t make any more history.
Bubba Watson pulled off The Shot of the tournament — that twister from nowhere on the 10th hole in the playoff — and Oosthuizen walked home not with the green jacket, but with a good-looking `2’ on the scorecard. It was only the fourth double-eagle in the history of the Masters and the first ever on the par-5 second at Augusta National.
