The final round of the 2019 Masters provided plenty of drama Sunday afternoon as the field raced to finish the tournament before severe weather arrived in the area, and a tornado warning was issued for the region while players were making their way down the back nine. As the final group came to the 15th tee, three players – Francesco Molinari, Tiger Woods and Xander Schauffele – were tied for the lead at 12-under par, and a total of seven players were within a stroke of the lead.

Barring heroics over the final holes, there’s a very good chance The Masters may be decided by a playoff. Wondering how that works? We’re here to help.

The Masters uses a sudden-death playoff format.

If a playoff occurs, play will begin at the par-4 18th hole. If the playoff continues, players will move to the par-4 10th hole. If more holes are required, play will alternate between until a champion is crowned.
