Yahoo Sports Masters 2023 live: Jon Rahm flies past Brooks Koepka to win green jacket at Augusta National
Jon Rahm surged ahead at just the right time.
After a late start to the final round of the 2023 Masters due to two days of weather delays, Rahm quickly caught up to and flew past Brooks Koepka on Sunday afternoon to claim his first Masters win and the iconic green jacket at Augusta National. Koepka held a two-shot lead to start the day, and Rahm ran ahead to a four-shot win.

The win marked his second major win, which makes him just the second player from Spain to ever win more than one. He also returned to No. 1 in the Official World Golf Rankings.
Phil Mickelson carded the best round of the day with a 65. He finished tied with Koepka in second as he matched his best round at Augusta National.
The final round did not include Tiger Woods, who withdrew Sunday morning.
