Cabrera made par on the second playoff hole to defeat Kenny Perry and win the 2009 Masters championship in dramatic finish at Augusta National Golf Club.

When the day started Cabrera and Perry were listed at +200 to win, even with Tiger Woods (+1400) and Phil Mickelson (+1600) lurking in the distance.

Chad Campbell, who was listed at +750, was eliminated on the first playoff hole after he made bogey, while the other players saved par.

Woods, who at one point pulled to within one shot of the lead, stumbled to a bogey-bogey finish to card a 4-under 68. Woods finished at 8-under par for the tournament.

Cabrera is the first player from Argentina to win the Green Jacket. It's his second career major title, following his triumph at the 2007 U.S. Open at Oakmont, Pennsylvania.
