Tiger, Tiger, burning bright
Tiger Woods completed one of sports greatest ever comebacks at the Masters last night.
Eleven years on from his last Major and fourteen years after his last win at Augusta, Woods picked up his fifth green jacket with a one stroke win, finishing on 13 under par.
The 43 year old put a host of back surgeries and personal problems behind him to win his 15th Major.
Woods carded a final round 70 in Georgia to finish on 13 under par, a shot ahead of Dustin Johnson, Xander Schauffele and Brooks Koepka.
Here's the moment Tiger sank his final putt to be crowned champion.
History in the making. 🐅
