Tiger Woods completed an epic comeback from career-threatening injury and scandal by winning the 83rd Masters on Sunday, capturing his 15th major title with an unprecedented back-nine rally.
Ending an 11-year major drought, the 43-year-old American superstar -- who underwent spinal fusion surgery in 2017 due to chronic back pain -- seized his first major title since the 2008 US Open.
"It's overwhelming just because of what has transpired," Woods said.
"I could barely walk. Couldn't sleep. Couldn't walk. Couldn't do anything.
"To have the opportunity to come back, it's one of the biggest wins I've ever had for sure."

"I don't know if he's worried or not. I'm sure he's home in West Palm (Beach, Florida) just chilling and watching."
"I felt in control of my long game and it really paid off."
"All these different scenarios keep flying around. It was an amazing buzz to follow what was going on and yet still focus on what I was trying to do out there. I liked it."
"Now I know why I'm balding. This stuff is hard."
