Round by round results

First round (Thursday, Friday)

Sixty-eight players were still out on the course when rain suspended the first round of the 69th Masters Tournament, so it had to be completed Friday morning. Chris DiMarco shot a five-under 67 to finish with the first round lead. Vijay Singh and Luke Donald each shot a four-under 68 to finish one stroke behind DiMarco in second. Tiger Woods struggled through much of his round ending at two over par. After the round, Woods was questioned by rules officials for an illegal putting stance on the 14th before getting the all-clear. Billy Casper shot the worst round in Masters history on Thursday with a 34-over par 106.

Third round conclusion (Sunday)

Tiger Woods stormed into the lead by birdieing his first four holes and finished his round shooting a 7-under 65. Dating back to play on Saturday, Woods birdied seven straight holes, tying a record by Steve Pate. Chris DiMarco struggled in his morning round, making two double bogeys to finish his third round in 3-over 74. DiMarco's troubles began when his second shot at the 10th went into a bush. He had to take a drop, chipped onto the green and two-putted for the double bogey. That ended a streak of 44 holes without a bogey.

Quotes

"Oh my goodness! OH WOW!!!! IN YOUR LIFE HAVE YOU SEEN ANYTHING LIKE THAT!?" - CBS's Verne Lundquist's famous call of Tiger Woods chip on hole 16.

"Chris is a tough competitor and a fighter. He's never going to back off and he proved that again." - Tiger Woods on the gutsy final round of runner up Chris Dimarco.

""I was just trying to throw the ball up there on the hill and let it feed down there and hopefully have a makeable putt. All of a sudden, it looked really good, and it looked like how could it not go in, and how did it not go in, and all of a sudden it went in." - Tiger Woods on his remarkable chip on 16.

"I went out and shot 68 around here on Sunday, which is a very good round, and 12-under is usually good enough to win. It was just that I was playing against Tiger Woods." - Chris DiMarco on his runner up finish.

"I would let it hurt if I gave it away but I didn't. I really didn't." - Chris DiMarco

"You know I played him as hard as I could down the stretch, birdieing a bunch of holes coming down the back nine and putting it on him really. And since I put that behind me and went out and put a good number on the back nine, I feel very good." - Chris DiMarco on his final round.

"That was a hard-fought week with the rain delays, I didn't get off to the greatest of starts." - Tiger Woods on the long week of golf.
