'i Would Do It Again': Golfer Apologises To Augusta National For Relief In Rae's Creek

Reigning US Amateur champion Jose Luis Ballester has apologised to Augusta National for taking an impromptu bathroom break in Rae's Creek during Thursday's first round of the Masters.

The 21-year-old Spaniard admitted he urinated in the famed water hazard on Augusta National's par-five 13th hole and said Friday he had apologised for doing so.

'I already apologised to the club, and I think we just move on from this moment,' Ballester said.

Ballester said he had supportive comments from some friends after his intended private moment, shielded by the slopes on either side of the creek, became global news.
