Augusta, Georgia: Tiger Woods arrived at Augusta National as a favourite to win his fifth green jacket. Instead, he left with his worst score as a pro. A 74 on Sunday put Woods at 5-over 293 for the Masters, which was his worst four-round score since he posted the same number as a first-time amateur way back in 1995. He shot a 291 in 2007, but that was good enough...

Georgia: Bubba Watson conjured a miraculous par from pine straw to become only the third left-hander to win the Masters with an emotional playoff victory over Louis Oosthuizen at Augusta National on Sunday. The American clinched his first major title with a two-putt par on the second extra hole, the par-four 10th, where South African Oosthuizen bogeyed after ending up just short of the green in two and failing to...

Augusta, Georgia: Tiger Woods is subject to discipline by the US PGA Tour for kicking his golf club after a poor shot at the Masters. Whether he is fined is not likely to be known, though, since the Tour doesn't comment on discipline. Woods, after a bad miss with a 4-iron into the par-5 15th hole on Friday, hit a poor tee shot with a 9-iron on the par-3 16th....

Augusta: Not since 2001, when Tiger Woods was seeking an unprecedented fourth successive major title, has a Masters tournament been so eagerly anticipated as this week's 76th edition. Virtually all of the game's top players have arrived in good form at Augusta National where heavy rain during the event's build-up has softened the notoriously tricky greens, giving the more inexperienced participants a greater chance of success. Woods, who ended a...

Augusta: If there is to be a series of head-to-head battles between Rory McIlroy and Tiger Woods in the years ahead it does not sound like there will be much in the way of trash talk to stimulate the hype. In fact, Woods is talking up McIlroy in the build-up to this week's Masters, arguing that his young rival can have an extended reign of glory in the game. McIlroy...

Always eagerly anticipated...

A year that witnessed the passing of one European golfing legend may have heralded the arrival of another. The death of Spanish great Seve Ballesteros in May following a three-year battle with a brain tumor hit the golfing fraternity hard, although the outpouring of grief for the popular winner of five Majors extended far beyond sport. It was fitting, then, that the player who did so much to revive a...

Augusta: It was a roar that defines the Masters, so loud it startled even Tiger Woods. Rory McIlroy, who already dazzled the crowd with a shot through the pines to the back of the 17th green, raised the putter in his left hand as the birdie putt turned toward the hole, then slammed his right fist when the ball disappeared into the cup. The cheer was so clamorous that Woods,...

Augusta, Georgia: Britain's Rory McIlroy, widely tipped as a future world number one, produced golf as dazzling as the spring sunshine at Augusta National to charge into a share of the lead at the Masters on Thursday.
