US Masters Final Round: Bubba Watson wins at 2nd play-off hole

Bubba Watson of the USA has defeated South Africa&aposs Louis Oosthuizen on the second play-off hole at the 2012 US Masters, after both players finished regulation at 10-under 278. It is Watson&aposs first major. Watson won by hitting a most-memorable wedge shot on the 10th (second play-off hole), one that may have trumped the historic double-eagle 2 that Oosthuizen dropped in on the second green to take the lead early in the final round. Four players, Lee Westwood (Eng), Peter Hanson (Swe), Matt Kucher (USA) and Phil Mickleson (USA), finished two strokes behind the play-off pair at 8-under 280.
