| 2002 Masters | |
In a tough final round in which only one player broke 70, Tiger Woods' 1-under 71 was more than enough to secure his third Green Jacket as Masters champion.
Woods made his move in the third round, which he started four strokes behind second-round leader Vijay Singh. Singh played even-par golf in the third round, which gave Retief Goosen (69) and Woods - who surged with a 66 - a chance to get out front.
Goosen and Woods were the final pairing on Sunday, starting the day tied at 11-under. But while Goosen didn't blow up - he carded a 2-over 74 in very tough scoring conditions - he didn't pressure Woods either.
Tiger's 71 and 12-under total were good for the 3-stroke victory. It was Woods' second straight Masters victory and his seventh overall major championship win.
