Jon Rahm wins second major title with Masters 2023 victory at Augusta National

Spanish golfer Jon Rahm secured his second major title, winning the 87th Masters at Augusta National by a four-shot margin over LIV Golf's Brooks Koepka and Phil Mickelson on Sunday.

Starting the day two shots behind Koepka, Rahm played in the final pairing and scored a three-under-par 69, finishing the week at 12 under.

Meanwhile, five-time winner Tiger Woods withdrew from the Masters before the third round's resumption on Sunday because of injury.

After the delayed second round, Woods had made a record-equalling 23rd consecutive halfway cut at Augusta National on Saturday.

But he struggled in the first seven holes of his third round, scoring six over par, resulting in his withdrawal.

On the resumption of play, Rahm quickly closed the gap to Koepka's four-shot lead.

Koepka failed to sink the par putt on the seventh green, while Rahm successfully converted his birdie attempt from three metres.

The pair each birdied the par-five eighth, but Rahm saved par from a greenside bunker on the ninth, maintaining a two-shot deficit.

In what appeared to be a duel between Rahm and Koepka, amateur Sam Bennett and Patrick Cantlay were tied for third place on six under, five shots behind Rahm.

US Open champion Matt Fitzpatrick trailed by one stroke after scoring a bogey on the 12th and a birdie on the par-five 13th.

Koepka and Rahm both missed the green on the par-three 12th due to challenging wind.

Rahm managed a fortunate bounce and two-putted for par, while Koepka three-putted from long range, cutting his lead to a single shot.

Rahm's putting was on point as play resumed, but
