Speaking with his fiancée Presleigh Schultz, who first met Bhatia at the same event in Texas in 2021, Bhatia confirmed the freak injury. “My shoulder came out of the socket, when I went like this,” he said as he repeated the 18th-green celebration that booked his play-off spot.
Bhatia also said that the same left shoulder had bothered him previously with injuries, although after a short spell of treatment he was able to take part in the play-off.
After McCarthy found the creek in front of the 18th green in the play-off, Bhatia had his shoulder taped before hitting his wedge to six feet and holing it to clinch victory.
The American will become the first finalist from the Drive, Chip and Putt event to return to Augusta to play in The Masters.
Rory McIlroy was a distant third, nine shots adrift, as he completed his Masters warm-up with a bogey-free 66.
