No comeback for Tiger
Sunday's final round of the Masters Tournament held a lot of promise for the world's top-ranked player. But in the end, there would be nothing but disappointment for Woods, the pre-tournament favorite.
Back nine unkind to Duval
Desire got the best of David Duval.Staring down the pin on No. 13, he cracked. He pressed. Desperation overpowered logic. Trailing Vijay Singh by one stroke, Duval went for it and disaster ensued.
Aaron not concerned with final score
Tommy Aaron took one more stroll around the Augusta National Golf Club on Sunday. His score didn't matter. He just wanted to remember the Masters and the record he set this week, at age 63 becoming the oldest player to make the cut.
Amateur treasures round with Nicklaus
If nothing else, David Gossett got to experience the thrill of receiving a standing ovation on the 18th hole of the Masters Tournament. All right, so the crowd cheered for six-time champion Jack Nicklaus.
