The 2024 Players Championship had an ending that nobody will ever forget Sunday at TPC Sawgrass, with Scottie Scheffler getting the win after three players missed birdie putts on the final hole that would have forced a playoff. 

Wyndham Clark was the last of those players to miss his putt, and his was the most brutal of the three. His ball looked as if it was going to fall into the hole, but then it rolled around it and stayed out. 

This angle of his miss makes it even more heartbreaking, as you can see that Clark starts to celebrate while thinking he was going to make it: 

Ouch.
