Graeme McDowell has claimed that he "threw away shots" all week as his campaign came to a disappointing end at The Masters.
The Northern Irishman closed the tournament with a 73 to finish six-over-par, and he admits that it was frustrating to fall short of his best at Augusta once again after failing to break 70 in any of his four rounds.
"I can't imagine not coming here," McDowell told Sky Sports News. "It would be sacrilege not to play here no matter how much it frustrates you as you have to enjoy it for what it is.
"It is a celebration of golf on my favourite golf course in the world. It is. I love it. But it's unrequited.
"Once I feel like I have got one up on this course it takes two back. I walk away still disappointed a little that I can't score as well as I feel I should round this course. I threw away shots like confetti all week."
Before this week, McDowell had only made the cut twice in seven appearances.
