AUGUSTA, Georgia (Reuters) - Justin Rose was bloodied but unbowed after losing to Sergio Garcia in a dramatic playoff at the U.S. Masters on Sunday. Rose, the 2013 U.S. Open champion, was proud of the way he coped with the pressure-cooker atmosphere, making five birdies and two bogeys in the cauldron of Augusta. "I felt pretty much in control of my game and the tournament for the most part all day," Rose told reporters. "It is going to sting for sure but I really feel that this is a tournament that I can win. Rose regrouped quickly, however, and has established himself as one of the game's leading players, now ranked 14th in the world.
