Roberto Castro loses in playoff after shot lands in shoe
Roberto Castro failed to capture his first PGA Tour victory after losing the Wells Fargo Championship in a playoff against James Hahn in unusual fashion.
After Castro found the water off the 18th tee, his third shot landed in yet another inconvenient location - somebody's shoe.

Incredibly, Castro recovered to salvage a bogey, but it wasn't enough as Hahn registered a par to claim his second Tour win. Despite the loss, Castro was still in good spirits after the second-place finish.
How about this perspective: In his first words during post-round interview after loss, Roberto Castro smiled and said, "I'm really excited."
