Tiger Woods charged from two shots back of Francesco Molinari to win his 15th major championship at The Masters on Sunday marking the first time Woods has come from behind to win a major.
“There were so many different scenarios that could have transpired on that back nine,” Woods said after the round. “There were so many guys that had a chance to win. Leader board was absolutely packed and everyone was playing well. You couldn’t have had more drama than we all had out there. Now you know why I’m balding. This stuff is hard.”
