The field was stacked and most expected him to be there for a ceremonial weekend, not to actually contend. He was down four strokes as he started the Par 5 15th. This hole rallied the comeback win for the Golden Bear, who shot 30 on the back nine en route to a 65. He won the Masters for his 18th and final major title.
