Through rain, fallen trees and extended Sunday play, Jon Rahm used a strong final round to win the 87th Masters at Augusta National Golf Club. 

This is Rahm’s first career Masters win, adding the second of four majors to his career victories list. He won the U.S. Open in 2021. He is also the second player from Spain to win two different majors, joining legend Seve Ballesteros. 

Rahm shot a final round 69, which included four birdies, to finish at 12-under.
