The drought is over. After going winless in his last 10 majors, Tiger Woods has won his fourth green jacket. After taking the lead early on Sunday, Woods made a birdie on the first playoff hole to defeat a resilient Chris DiMarco and win the 2005 Masters.

That shot on the 16th.............surreal. Well done tiger

Yup... that was amazing. The ball just sat there for a few seconds right on the edge, and then some supernatural force pushed it in.

I only hope that this will be the beginning of his return to dominance.

geez i wonder who Hootie was rooting for...

This conversation kind of started already: http://www.neowin.net/forum/index.php?showtopic=305483&st=15

But yeah that was a hell of a final day. I nearly fell out of my chair on his chip shot on the 16th. And on the 18th DiMarco's chip that nearly won it o man. Great finish.

Tiger babyyyyyyyyy! I'm really happy for him.

woah. wanst he down by 3 or 4 yesterday?

Thought he was losing his touch, guess not. Go Tigah!

he had like a 9 shot swing in one round. this morning (3rd round), tiger shot 65 and chris shot 74.


congratulations tiger. one of the most exciting masters i've seen.

Two images which i made!



Tiger woods showed why he is still a phenomenon in world golf arena...
I hail the world's number one!

that chip on the 16th was amazing

Oh god, i missed it. Saw yesterdays.
Is there anywhere i can get videos from it?
Especially that chip on the 16th?

Thanks.

I watched it and there was some awesome golf happening

iirc he got 7 or 9 birdies in a row

Yeah the shot on the 16th was awesome! He deserved to win the Masters, go Tiger!

That shot was phenomenal! Like a miracle or some witch nearby was willing it in by some spell or something. It just stood there at the edge of the hole... For a few seconds too...
At first I saw the chip I was like, nah... Bad shot, then it just rolled... Magic!

I think all the explosions when Bill Murray was trying to kill all the gophers is what knocked it in.

That will be one of the classic shots of all time, without it he would have lost by one and no playoff (assuming all others things stayed equal, of course).

Nice work Tiger

Anyone have a video of this 16th hole? I really want to see it.

I am not really into golf, but I switched over from a basketball game, and WHOA that shot Tiger did was like amazing! After I saw that set there and watched the rest….man that chip =

unfortunately not, but i must say it was really impressive

i am glad tiger won again.

I really like Chris DiMarco. I;ve been a fan of his for a few years now....but I really wanted Tiger to get back into the Majors again.

Could be a turning point for tiger i've always admired him. Lots of competition against him nowadays. Like Vijay Singh, Ernie Els etc

well good for him... but the rich ****** doesnt even tip

ESPN.com has it.

Watched...and holy **** that was awsome What a shot!!

Here for download. I bet Nike will have an ad with that saying "Just Do It"

Really was an awesome piece of golf, he was in a bad lie aswell on the edge of the thicker grass.

thanks for the link. still gives me goosebumps...

Yeah bono's right

yeah, the whole swoosh thing, just too perfect.

and i don't know whats wrong with me, but over 24 hours later, and after watching it at least 50 times, i STILL get goosebumps. just hearing the crowd get loud, and then quiet, and then just explode....man...

Watching SportsCenter this morning they showed the shot from another angle. And the anchor says watch the two guys in the pink and yellow shirts. When that ball fell the two dudes went NUTS. It was pretty funny. They jumped up and caught each other in bear hugs. One guy nearly fell over. It was as if THEY had just sunk the shot. Trying to find the clip with that angle. It's rather amusing.

/edit
Yeah that's the one! Can't find it though. Also, something I didn't know. CBS doesn't won the rights to the video footage, it belongs exclusively to Augusta. And THEY were the ones to blame for the lack of coverage, not necessarily the networks. Yeah I keep watching the clip too. It's jsut surreal lol. Best golf-shot I've ever had the chance to witness LIVE, not just in video highlights.

haha, yeah, i remember seeing that one. funny as hell. i think thats the one where they show tiger fall down, and sorta put his head in his hands, and then jump up when he realizes it fell.

After having seen it up close, the "rough" is a joke! Man I play on greens shaggier than that! It is so perfectly trimmed it looks fake.

It was great Masters, so glad DiMarco kept it tight and made it exciting. I had the privilege of watching it on a 10 foot theater screen - awesome!

i saw this shot on tv.. it was amazing i woke up early to watch the golf and this woke me right up, the crowd was amazing. and the commentator was pretty good too lol

Why the Green Jacket?....Always Wondered
