Masters Leaderboard: Final Results from Augusta National Golf Course

The final standings from the Masters tournament, the first major golf event of the year, are in. Held at the prestigious Augusta National Golf Course in Augusta, Georgia, the competition saw Rory McIlroy successfully defend his title. McIlroy made history by becoming the first player since Tiger Woods to achieve a career Grand Slam. World number one Scottie Scheffler was the pre-tournament favorite but ultimately finished a shot behind McIlroy, who carded a one-under 71. Tyrrell Hatton, Justin Rose, Cameron Young, and Russell Henley were tied for third place. The top 10 was rounded out by Collin Morikawa, Sam Burns, Max Homa, and Xander Schauffele. The Masters is the first of four major golf tournaments in as many months, followed by the PGA Championship, US Open, and The Open. The PGA Tour now heads to South Carolina for the RBC Heritage, where Justin Thomas will defend his title.
