Congratulations to this years winner. 


Angel Cabrera, who shot 71, looked like the odd man out when his tee shot on the first playoff hole landed behind a Georgia pine, and his 4-iron struck another one. But he managed to scratch out a par with a sand wedge to 8 feet and a pressure-packed putt.

When luck turned against Perry on the second extra hole - a splotch of mud on his ball in the fairway that led to a bogey - Cabrera made a routine par to become the first Argentine in a green jacket.

At No. 69 in the world, Angel Cabrera became the lowest-ranked player to win the Masters since the world ranking began in 1986.
