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.

Dustin Johnson (-8) makes par on the first to get his round off the a steady start. Rickie Fowler (-8) makes birdie to make an early move up the leader board.

Louis Oosthuizen (-9) closes the gap to just four with a birdie of his own on One.

There seems to be a lot of birdies flying around so another low round could be on the cards.

Who's going to post it though?

John Rahm and Justin Thomas are making moves on the second. They roll an eagle up apiece up to the hole and should both make birdie.

Jordan Speith perhaps? His 3-under thru 4 and moves to (-7).

Way to go Xander!

A birdie on the first moves Schauffele level with Oosthuizen at (-9).
