The final standings from the Masters golf tournament, the first major of the year, are in. Held at the prestigious Augusta National in Augusta, Georgia, this competition saw Rory McIlroy successfully defend his title. McIlroy became the sixth player in history to achieve the career Grand Slam after winning last year's play-off against Justin Rose. World No 1 Scottie Scheffler was the favorite to win, but McIlroy made history with a one-under 71, finishing a shot ahead of Scheffler.
Tyrrell Hatton, Justin Rose, Cameron Young, and Russell Henley followed closely. The PGA Tour now heads to South Carolina for the RBC Heritage, with Justin Thomas returning as defending champion. The next men's major, the PGA Championship, will take place from May 14-17 at Aronimink Golf Club in Pennsylvania.
