Eddie Pepperell was well beaten in his final game at the WGC-Dell Technologies Match Play event in Texas.
The Oxfordshire golfer lost 4&3 to Emiliano Grillo in Austin, Texas.
Pepperell fell behind at the fourth and was never able to recover as he finished bottom of the Group 2 table after the round robin stage.
Grillo picked up further shots at the sixth, ninth and tenth holes to go four clear.
Although the Frilford Heath member reduced the deficit to three at the 12th, he lost the very next hole.
And two further halved holes saw Grillo wrap up victory.
