Sergio Garcia finally snags major Masters victory

Sergio Garcia finally claimed the major championship victory that the golfing world had decided was his for the taking as a teenager, winning the Masters on Sunday night in his 74th major start, writes the Irish Examiner's Simon Lewis.

On the late Seve Ballesteros's 60th birthday, Garcia, 37, became Spain's third Masters champion having prevailed in a play-off with Justin Rose, defeating the Englishman at the first hole of sudden death at Augusta National.
