We continue our countdown of memorable moments from last year's final round at Augusta

We kick off Masters week by continuing our countdown of memorable moments from last year's final round, with today's effort a stunner from Justin Rose.

Rose responded by sticking his tee shot to a similar distance on the par-three, before rolling in the birdie putt to give him the lead over his Ryder Cup team-mate with two holes to go.
