Nick Faldo won his third Masters and his sixth and final major title, five strokes ahead of runner-up Greg Norman.

[2][3] Faldo overcame a six-stroke deficit going into the final day as Norman, leader after each of the first three rounds, faltered down the stretch once again at Augusta.

[6] Faldo moved into second place with a 67 on Friday and stayed in second, though six shots behind, with a scrambling par on 18 late Saturday afternoon.

Any thoughts of Norman winning were dashed when his tee shot on the par three 16th also found the water.
