The Great White Shark had circled around the elusive green jacket too many times without being able to wear it. Pam Scott was on the other side of the world, trying to catch every agonizing moment. Norman's close calls lurked in the memories of so many Australians on Monday. They woke ...

But distance doesn't really matter Down Under. Within seconds of Scott's 12-foot putt finding the cup on the second playoff hole at Augusta, fans who ...

(AP) — Adam Scott strolled into the room, looking quite dapper in green. He let out a deep sigh and struggled to contain his emotions — the thoughts of Greg Norman, the folks Down Under, the dad he hugged so tight alongside the 10th green. It sure felt a lot different than the last time Scott was summoned to the media room at the end of a maj...

(AP) — Adam Scott barely had time to think about an Australian in a green jacket when a sudden roar from the 18th green and a quick look at the TV reminded him it's never been easy. Not for him in the majors. And certainly not for the Aussies at Augusta National. He thought for a second it was over when he made a 20-foot birdie putt, the kind...

(AP) — The last time Brandt Snedeker came this close to winning the Masters, he wept uncontrollably, distraught that the tournament he's dreamed of winning since he was a child slipped through his fingers. On Sunday, the only tears after the final round were from his 2-year-old daughter. "I'm not as crushed as I was in 2008 because I know I'm...

After matching birdies on the 72nd hole, the players returned to No. 18 for the playoff and made pars. That sent them to No. 10, where Cabrera just m...

(AP) — No matter what the leaderboard says, Guan Tianlang leaves the Masters a winner. Making history from the moment he stepped on the first tee Thursday, the 14-year-old made quite an impression on Augusta National. He finished the week without a double bogey, and never had a three-putt. (Not one that counted, anyway, though Guan was quick ...
