MASTERS TOURNAMENTApril 13, 2014Jordan SpiethAUGUSTA, GEORGIA Q. The final pairing in your very first Masters, I know you're disappointed at the way things turned out, but what was the day like for you? JORDAN SPIETH:  Oh, it was so much fun, it really was. Even if I didn't show it there on the back nine, it was. I took it all in, standing ovations for both of us to each green. It was a dream come true. Although it sits a little hard right now, I'll be back and I can't wait to be back. Q. Talk about where it started to turn at 8 and 9. JORDAN SPIETH: 8, when I hit the shot I actually thought I hit it too far on my third shot. It was the first shot that really checked up all week on these greens. Just tricked out on a couple of the putts. Just mishit one on 9 and then there was a huge change. Two, two stroke swings in a row. That's very difficult on this golf course to come back from. I felt like I fought hard and if I hit a couple putts a little firmer, it could have been a different story. But hats off obviously to Bubba, because when he's driving the ball well out here, he's very tough to beat. Q. Nobody behind you every really made a move. Did it feel like match play with Bubba? JORDAN SPIETH: It did late on the front nine and early in the back nine. Then after 12, Bubba was pretty far ahead and I had dropped back. So I was looking to make a couple birdies and maybe put some pressure on Bubba, but I didn't and so he was able to kind of make pars coming in and it made it a little easier for him. Q. I know you're going to take some time and process all of this, but what's the immediate take away for you going forward from this experience? JORDAN SPIETH: I'm hungry. I mean, to be honest with you, that was fun, but at the same time it hurts right now. Although it was going into the week I wanted to get in contention on the back nine Sunday and that's what happened, and didn't come out on top, but I could take a lot of positives away, felt very comfortable out there, my game felt like it will holed up and I think I'm going to go forward from here. That's a great feeling.
