[Tex/LaTex] Wrong space with \footnotemark

Question

I am using \footnotemark, but the space after the mark is smaller than the space I obtain when I use regular \footnote. How can I obtain the usual space after \footnote? See example below.

\documentclass{report}
\begin{document}

Phrase. Standard without footnote.

Phrase.\footnote{foot1}
With footnote.

Phrase.\footnotemark\ %
Smaller with footnotemark;
how can I correct it?
\footnotetext{foot2}

Phrase.\footnotemark
Definitively wrong.
\footnotetext{foot3}

\end{document}

Edit: Thanks for all the answers. I will accept the first one, and vote the rest.

Answer 1

An empty group {} after the \footnotemark seems to do the trick.

\documentclass{report}
\begin{document}
Phrase. Standard without footnote.

Phrase.\footnote{foot1}
With footnote.

Phrase.\footnotemark{}
Smaller with footnotemark;
how can I correct it?
\footnotetext{foot2}
\end{document}
