Anirban Lahiri never got any momentum going on the final day and slipped to a disappointing tied 41st at the Wells Fargo Championships at Charl-otte, USA.

Seemingly set for a charge into the top-10, Lahiri began the day at one-under 215, and shot 75 to finish at two-over 290.

After a series of eight missed cuts going back to February, James Hahn finally came through to win in a play-off against Roberto Castro, as bigger names like Justin Rose (71 and third), while Rory McIlroy (66), Phil Mickelson (66) and Rickie Fowler (71) ended in a tie for the fourth.

Starting off the first tee, Lahiri bogeyed the third and sixth holes to roll backwards. Birdies on the seventh and ninth seemed to get him back into the top 25.

Following the turn, Lahiri bogeyed three in a row from the 11th. A birdie on the 14th was a minor consolation before he bogeyed yet again on the 18th hole.

“It was extremely and utterly frustrating to finish poorly from great positions time and time again,” said Lahiri.

“When you miss a dozen putts inside six feet, you cannot score on a tough golf course.”

He added, “My game was excellent. I hit well, but just could not get the putts to fall. I need to get some positivity going into the weekends and that has just not materialized these past few months.”
