It looked like Spieth was going to run away with the tournament and win his second Masters title in a row, but a dramatic back nine saw Danny Willett emerge victorious. Here are The Masters pictures from the final round.

Danny Willett claimed his first major title and became the first English Masters winner since Nick Faldo in 1996.

Jordan Spieth looked to have his second green jacket sealed but capitulated at the infamous 12th hole after hitting two balls into the water.

Willett's brother J.P has made a name for himself after a series of hilarious tweets during the final round supporting his brother Danny.
