Jordan Spieth has finished 18 under par to win The Masters at Augusta this evening.
The 21-year-old Texan led throughout the tournament and finished four ahead of Phil Mickelson and Justin Rose on 14-under, while Rory McIlroy posted -12.
Spieth failed to set a new record for the event when he missed the chance to par the last hole, but was congratulated by his parents amid roars from the crowd after sinking the championship-winning putt.
Japan's Hideki Matsuyama finished 11-under with Paul Casey and Ian Poulter both ending the tournament on -9.
McIlroy, who had been one of the pre-tournament favourites, admitted that Spieth had been too good for the rest of the pack in Georgia, telling BBC Sport: "I didn't quite have enough and it doesn't look like anyone could have kept up with Jordan this week. It's great to see another young major champion, it's great for the game."
The American's overall score of 270 was equal to Tiger Woods's which was set back in 1997 as the lowest ever at the Masters.
Spieth, who is now up to world number two, is the Masters' second youngest ever champion.
