    Where does that Masters final round rank all time?
    Regardless of what you think of Rory, that was a Masters Sunday for the ages and will be tough to top. A complete rollercoaster from start to finish and highlighted everything that makes Augusta the best tournament of the year.

    I would put it right up there with Tiger's return to glory in 2019, the Adam Scott - Angel Cabrera playoff duel in the rain, and Phil's first win.

    Where do you guys rank that Masters Sunday?

    Andy bro! That was a great Masters Tournament! I honestly thought Rory was gonna give it away again with that miss at 18. Dude regained his composure and got it together on that 1st playoff hole. 17 Masters’ tournaments and he finally broke through.

      What a roller coaster of a round. Needed a hole in one for my sixth pick in your
      contest here. When they put the flag on number 16 in a bad spot I was screwed.
      They usually put it in a position where you hit it to the right of the pin and the ball
      funnels right down to the hole.

        I was wondering why they didn't have the normal funnel pin on 16. Apparently was to honor 50 years since Jack's win in 1975 where they had that pin position and he holed a 40-footer.

          Two things stick out.
          Bryson folded up like a lawn chair, and the Japanese import closed like a freight train.
          Matsuyama shot a God awful 79 in the third round to close out with a 66 on Sunday; that's a 13-shot recovery.
          That's a remarkable rebound; most pros and amateurs would have packed it in after that stink bomb.
          Make that 79 a 69 and Matsuyama is wearing that green jacket today.

            I think Bryson was thrown off a bit having the sole lead teeing off on the 3rd hole - he played it safe, not his style, and managed to fuk it up while Rory got aggressive and birdied to stop the bleeding. Bryson really never recovered from that. Crazy first 3 holes set up a truly epic Masters Sunday - couldn't have asked for more.
