Well, it finally happened.
Tiger Woods entered Round 4 of the 2019 Masters on Sunday having not won a PGA major tournament since the 2008 U.S. Open. He also hadn’t won at Augusta National Golf Club since 2005, and was 0-54 in his career when trailing through three rounds at a major.
All of those droughts came to an end Sunday afternoon.
Woods, who entered the day trailing leader Francesco Molinari by two strokes, roared back to win his fifth green jacket.
