Kyle Stanley is keen to put the collapse that cost him the Farmers Insurance Open last week behind him. The American seemed to be heading for his first PGA Tour victory after finding himself five shots clear heading into the final round at Torery Pines and still leading by three with only one hole to play Titleist 712 AP2 Irons on Sunday. But instead of triumph, he suffered an agonising defeat as he made a triple-bogey eight at the 18th to send him into a play-off with Brandt Snedeker – which he promptly lost. The crushing blow left him in tears afterwards, but he’s vowed to put the loss behind him and start building again. “I’m just going to continue to work hard with Titleist 712 AP2 Irons and do what I can do each day to get better, and as long as I continue to do that, I’ll be back,” Stanley said in Phoenix on Tuesday, where he is preparing for this week’s Phoenix Open. Stanley added that he never had any intention of pulling out of this week’s tournament. “If anything probably the opposite,” he said. “Nothing has changed and nothing is changing.” At one stage on Sunday, Stanley found himself a full seven shots ahead, but his lead soon started evaporating – and nowhere quicker than at that fateful 18th hole after a mishit Titleist 712 AP2 Irons shot to the green sent his ball spinning into the water.. “It’s a crazy game. It can love you, it can hate you,” said Stanley. He added that he’d been “overwhelmed” by the support he had received, both from the fans and his fellow pros, many of whom took to Twitter to express their empathy. Stanley also doesn’t regret letting his emotions show during the post-tournament press conference. “I tend to wear my emotions on my sleeve a little bit, it just kind of came out,” he said. “It was very tough to swallow. But that’s one of the things I learned is, I think you need to really be prepared for whatever this Titleist 712 AP2 Irons can throw at you.” At one stage on Sunday, Stanley found himself a full seven shots ahead, but his lead soon started evaporating – and nowhere quicker than at that fateful 18th hole after a mishit Titleist 712 AP2 Irons shot to the green sent his ball spinning into the water.. “It’s a crazy game.
