The Masters...Your highlights

Immelmann_blog_3Trevor Immelman has won his first major title after holding his nerve to triumph at the US Masters.

After taking a share of the lead following the first round, the South African remained in front for the duration of the tournament despite late pressure from Tiger Woods.

Immelman may not be a household name but he is certainly a worthy champion after holding off the world number one.

As for the Brits, despite promising starts from Justin Rose, Ian Poulter and Paul Casey, all three dropped off the pace when it came to the crunch, piling more misery on British sports fans.

What were your highlights of the event? Was it Poulter’s memorable hole-in-one on the 16th? Is Trevor Immelman a worthy champion? Despite finishing runner-up, what happened to Tiger Woods who was the pre-tournament favourite?

Always someone ready to"slam the Brits. Leave it to the gutter press! What about the "BIG names" Els ,Garcia,Olazabal, I mean they did really well didn't they!!!! At leastCasey was in with a shout. Get off the brits backs and show more support!!!

Shock horror. The Brits bottled it again. Casey could have won this but fell under pressure just like Justin Rose did after the first day. British sport flops again.
