Relive all the action from the final day at The Masters where Tiger Woods has won his first major in 11 years to complete one of the greatest comebacks sport has ever seen.

Woods went into the opening day two shots off overnight leader Francesco Molinari, with the Italian sitting clear on -13. But as the reigning Open champion wilted under the pressure of leading at Augusta, Woods surged into the lead to move clear on -14 with two holes to play. Despite the chasing pack of Dustin Johnson, Xander Schauffele and Brroks Koepka all reaching the clubhouse on -12, there was no stopping Woods.

Waling up the 18th to one of the biggest ovations Augusta has ever witnessed, Woods saw playing partners Molinari and Tony Finau whole out to complete their strong performances, and despite failing to make par on the last to drop to -13, he sealed possibly the most incredible victory seen at The Masters. Follow the live reaction below.

Tiger's putt is rapid, he aims for the bunker and let's it fall down the slope to the left. It's a remarkable putt from 80ft.

He leaves it 2-inches short of the hole and makes par.

Molinari (-13) misses his birdie chance and leaves himself a 6/7ft putt for par.

Finau (-11) makes a great up and down to save par.

The putter is on fire for Francesco!

He's even par through the front nine but he's made some quality putts. 

Michael Jones14 April 2019 16:57

Pars on the 10th for Koepka (-11), Poulter  (-10) and Simpson (-8)

Tiger's (-12) out to the right with his tee shot on 10. He's out in the pine straw.

Finau's (-11) over to the right as well but not as far.

Molinari (-13) catches the slope and is in position A.

Xander Schauffele just doesn't go away.

He holes a monster, monster putt on the 11th to move to (-10)

Back-to-back birdies for Justin Thomas (-9) on 12 and 13 move him to 9-under and right in the mix.

John Rahm (-9) also birdies 13 to move up there. 

Michael Jones14 April 2019 17:03

Finau (-11) misses the green to the left, Tiger (-12) chips out of the woods and Molinari (-13) also misses left.

Tiger's (-12) third just drops of the back of the green but he'll have a chance to save his par on the tenth.

Schauffele (-10) finds the green on the par-3 12th. Birdie putt coming up.

Finau (-11) plays a blinding chip to save par on 10.
