Golf:
Tiger Woods is back on top of the golf world after winning the Masters for the first time since 2005, completing a redemption story after troubles in his personal life and injuries nearly derailed his career. Woods’ fifth green jacket broke a tie with Arnold Palmer for the second-most behind Jack Nicklaus’ six Masters titles, and it’s his 15th overall major championship – three behind Nicklaus’ all-time record of 18. The 43-year-old Woods also tied a record by going 11 years between major wins, with his last coming at the 2008 U.S. Open. Dustin Johnson, Xander Schauffele and Brooks Koepka all finished one shot back.
