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.

Kevin Kisner (-6) is posting the best round so for. He's 4-under heading to the second tee after starting on the back nine.

Xander Schauffele (-8) bogeys the fifth hole as his par putt rolls around the edge of the hole and comes back out. 

Tiger (-12) left himself a testing putt for par on the fourth. Finau (-11) knocks his second close for an all but certain par.

Not hard enough for Molinari (-13) with his birdie putt and he leaves it short. He'll make par though and it's back over to Tiger...

1555252073

Oh!

There's a big sigh from the crowd as Tiger's (-11) par putt skirts the right edge of the hole but doesn't go in. He gives a shot back and Molinari regains his two-shot lead.

Michael Jones14 April 2019 15:27

Birdie for McIlroy (-5) on the first! Remember he started his round on the tenth.

Patrick Cantlay (-9) moves the 9-under with a well worked birdie on the seventh. 

Molinari (-13) in trouble off the tee on the fifth as he sends his drive down the right, Tony Finau (-11) joins him over there.

Tiger (-11) finds the fairway, he's made bogey on this hole three times this week. 

Michael Jones14 April 2019 15:31
1555252323

Webb Simpson (-9) misses a birdie putt on the fifth but a par keeps him in contention.

Michael Jones14 April 2019 15:32
1555252424

Good start for Koepka (-11). He's not playing all that well but he's saved par a couple of times to keep him 1-under for the round thru 5.

Michael Jones14 April 2019 15:33
1555252514

Tommy Fleetwood (-6) post a front nine 34 to go to 6-under for the week. Birdies on the seventh and the ninth helping him out.

Michael Jones14 April 2019 15:35
1555252669

Molinari (-13) finds the front edge of the green with his second on the fifth. Up and down for par needed to limit the damage. 

Woods (-11) finds the right side of the green and will have a long putt for birdie. 

Finau (-11) finds the green and has a tough birdie putt coming up.

Finau (-11) makes a mistake with his first putt and finishes nowhere near the hole. Trouble for him at the fifth.
