Sergio Garcia and Justin Rose are tied at -9 after 72 holes at The Masters, leading many to ask what exactly happens now.
Glad you all asked.
It's simple but unique: The Masters plays a sudden-death style playoff format where players tied atop the leaderboard will alternate between the 18th and the 10th hole, beginning with the 18th hole, until a winner is found.
The playoff will begin shortly.
