The Masters 2019: Tiger Woods wins fifth Masters and 15th major with one-shot win at Augusta National

Tiger Woods rolled back the years to come out on top after a pulsating Sunday at The Masters with a powerful late run grabbing him a fifth green jacket after a one-shot victory at Augusta.

Not so long ago Woods doubted whether he would ever be able to pick up a golf club again after numerous back surgeries, let alone add to his tally of 14 majors, but it was like he never left as he signed for a final round of 70 to finish on 13-under par.

Woods finished ahead of a trio of fellow Americans on 12-under in Dustin Johnson, Xander Schauffele and Brooks Koepka, but none of them could get near the man who dominated golf for so long but who for so long looked like he'd never be able to recapture his former glory.
