Augusta, Georgia, USA (GenevaLunch) – Argentinian Angel Cabrera became the 2009 Masters champion as 48-year-old American Kenny Perry fell at the last two holes to spoil his chance of becoming the oldest ever winner of the famous green jacket. Cabrera won a three way play-off with Perry and Chad Campbell.

The day’s action was dominated by Phil Mickelson who scored a record equalling 30 on the first nine but then slipped back after hitting a nine iron into the water on the 12th. He finished three strokes behind the leaders to take fifth place. Tiger Woods was another stroke behind, sharing sixth place.
