I was trying to get my irons in closely, but just couldnt get close enough, Oosthuizen said. I felt like my putting was good enough to roll in a few 20-footers if I had to, and I just couldnt get the ball there.Oosthuizen appeared poised to make a charge after he rolled in a 34-foot eagle putt on No. 11 to get to 8 under and within two shots of Kim. But he failed to birdie the short par-4 12th and gave back his eagle gains on the next two holes to end any title hopes.All in all good week. Would have liked to have pushed a little bit more at the end there, he said. Being four behind with four holes to go is probably not ideal. Stupid bogeys on 13 and 14. I had a good week, I played nicely, but I wasnt spot-on today, but happy with a second.
