Jordan Spieth reacts to his runner up finish at the 2016 Masters tournament.

SOUNDBITE (English): Jordan Spieth

"I went bogey, bogey, quad. I went 5, 5, 7. It was a dream come true front nine. And I knew par was good enough and maybe that was what hurt me, just wasn't quite aggressive at the ball with my 3‑wood; 6‑iron on 10. And then the drive on 11. Just a lapse of concentration on 12 and it cost me."

"As you can imagine, I can't think of anybody else who may have had a tougher ceremony to experience. Obviously happy for Danny. More important than golf, he's had a lot of really cool things happened in his life. Like he said, maybe fate had it this time for him. I certainly wanted to control fate, myself.
But it was very tough given that it's so soon after the finish and it was tough but I thought that he handled it with extreme class. And I felt that I stood up there and smiled like I should, and appreciated everybody who makes this great tournament possible."

"I can't imagine that was fun for anyone to experience, other than maybe Danny's team. And those who are fans of him. At one point I told Mike, I said, buddy, it seems like we're collapsing. And I wanted to be brutally honest with the way I felt towards him, so that he could respond with what was necessary to get us to rebound. And we did. I rebounded. I hit a great drive, I hit a good 7‑iron, got a tough break. I made two birdies coming in and almost made a couple more. But, boy, you wonder about not only just the tee shot on 12, but why can't you just control the second shot, you know, and make 5 at worse, and you're still tied for the lead. Big picture, this one will hurt. It will take a while."
