The 2025 Masters begins in six days.
As the countdown to heading down Magnolia Lane continues, Golfweek is taking a look back at some Masters history through the years.
Today, it's time to examine the 2019 Masters and the significant milestones that occurred at Augusta National Golf Club that year.
Tiger Woods wins the Masters for a fifth time, only one of two players to win at least five Masters titles. Tiger didn't take the lead until the final round, when he went on a back-nine birdie barrage while 54-hole leader Francesco Molinari and others in contention fell apart. Woods shoots 70 or better in all four rounds.
1) Tiger Woods; 13-under 275
T2) Dustin Johnson, Brooks Koepka, Xander Schauffele; 12-under 276
T5) Jason Day, Tony Finau, Francesco Molinari, Webb Simpson; 11-under 277
Spieth won $2,070,000, and the total purse was $11,500,000.
Viktor Hovland won low amateur honors, shooting 3-under 285 and finishing T-32.
No. 5: Masters tees moved back 40 yards.
Matt Wallace won his only Par 3 Contest, shooting 5-under 22.
