US Masters / Joe Dyer / 13 April 2009 / Leave a comment

...while Perry and Campbell both trade odds-on before blowing their chances of victory.

Angel Cabrera landed the second major of his career when overhauling Kenny Perry and Chad Campbell in a three-man play-off at Augusta yesterday.

The Argentinean had shown few traces of form this year and was matched at a high of [360.0] in early trading on Betfair to win the tournament.

And on a dramatic final day in Georgia plenty of Cabrera's opponents traded low as it seemed the green jacket would go the way of someone else.

Holding a two-shot lead on the 17th Perry was trading at [1.13] but bogeys on the final two holes took him into the sudden death play-off.

And Campbell was matched at [1.63] after looking the likeliest winner at the first hole only to be the first man out when his second shot found a bunker and he was unable to get up and down.

Cabrera then edged Perry out at the second hole (the 10th) following an errant iron shot from the Kentucky-based Ryder Cup hero.

Earlier in the day Tiger Woods and Phil Mickelson - playing together - attracted an enormous crowd and produced some stunning golf as it seemed the pair would overhaul the leaders.

As the pair birdied their way through the field they were matched at lows of [2.2] and [3.65] respectively but bogeys at key moments on the back nine brought their challenges to a close.

Cabrera's win has made him a real challenger in the Race To Dubai, the replacement competition for the Order of Merit, where he now trades at [12.0] to win having been matched at [250.0].
