Day 4 of the Masters at a glance

AUGUSTA, Ga. (AP) — A brief look at the final day of the Masters on Sunday:

VICTOR: Rory McIlroy beat Justin Rose by making birdie on the first hole of a sudden-death playoff at Augusta National to finish off the career grand slam. Both of them finished the tournament at 11 under.

SPOILS: McIlroy won $4.2 million from a total purse of $21 million, along with something that many would consider much more valuable: the Masters green jacket and a lifetime exemption to the tournament.

RUNNER-UP: Rose shot a final-round 66, making a 20-footer for birdie on the 18th hole. He made par in the playoff.

REST OF THE CHASERS: Patrick Reed shot 69 to finish at 8 under, and defending champion and world No. 1 Scottie Scheffler also shot 69 to finish another shot back. Sungjae Im (69) and Bryson DeChambeau (75) were at 7 under.

SHOT OF THE DAY: McIlroy's approach from 125 yards on the 18th in the playoff, which he played perfectly off a ridge behind the hole. It trickled back to about 3 feet, and McIlroy made the putt to win the green jacket.

ROUND OF THE DAY: Rose did not have the only 66 on Sunday. Hideki Matsuyama also shot 66 and finished at 2 under.

COME ON BACK: Others who earned an invitation back to the Masters by finishing in the top 12 included Max Homa, who had been in a slump and running out of chances to play in majors. He shot a final-round 71 to finish in a tie for 12th at 4 under.

KEY STATISTIC: Rose and Ben Hogan are the only players to twice lose a playoff in the Masters.

NOTEWORTHY: McIlroy had two double bogeys on Sunday and four for the tournament, making him the first player to win the Masters with that many double bogeys. Craig Stadler made three when he won in 1982.

QUOTEWORTHY: "This is my 17th time here, and I started to wonder if it would ever be my time. I think the last 10 years coming here with the burden of the grand slam on my shoulders and trying to achieve that, yeah, I am sort of wondering what we’re all going to talk about going into next year’s Masters." — McIlroy.

CARACAS, Venezuela (AP) — Venezuela’s government accused the United States of attacking civilian and military installations in multiple states after at least seven explosions and low-flying aircraft were heard around 2 a.m. local time Saturday in the capital, Caracas.

The Pentagon and White House did not immediately respond to requests for comment.

Smoke could be seen rising from the hangar of a military base in Caracas. Another military installation in the capital was without power.

People in various neighborhoods rushed to the streets. Some could be seen in the distance from various areas of Caracas.

“The whole ground shook. This is horrible. We heard explosions and planes,” said Carmen Hidalgo, a 21-year-old office worker, her voice trembling. She was walking briskly with two relatives, returning from a birthday party. “We felt like the air was hitting us.”

Venezuela’s government, in the statement, called on its supporters to take to the streets.

“People to the streets!” the statement said. “The Bolivarian Government calls on all social and political forces in the country to activate mobilization plans and repudiate this imperialist attack.”

The statement added that President Nicolás Maduro had “ordered all national defense plans to be implemented” and declared “a state of external disturbance.”

This comes as the U.S. military has been targeting, in recent days, alleged drug-smuggling boats. On Friday, Venezuela said it was open to negotiating an agreement with the U.S. to combat drug trafficking.

Maduro also said in a pretaped interview aired Thursday that the U.S. wants to force a government change in Venezuela and gain access to its vast oil reserves through the monthslong pressure campaign that began with a massive military deployment to the Caribbean Sea in August.

Maduro has been charged with narco-terrorism in the U.S. The CIA was behind a drone strike last week at a docking area believed to have been used by Venezuelan drug cartels in what was the first known direct operation on Venezuelan soil since the U.S. began strikes on boats in September.

U.S. President Donald Trump for months had threatened that he could soon order strikes on targets on Venezuelan land. The U.S. has also seized sanctioned oil tankers off the coast of Venezuela, and Trump ordered a blockade of others in a move that seemed designed to put a tighter chokehold on the South American country’s economy.

The U.S. military has been attacking boats in the Caribbean Sea and the eastern Pacific Ocean since early September. As of Friday, the number of known boat strikes is 35 and the number of people killed is at least 115, according to numbers announced by the Trump administration.

They followed a major buildup of American forces in the waters off South America, including the arrival in November of the nation’s most advanced aircraft carrier, which added thousands more troops to what was already the largest military presence in the region in generations.

Trump has justified the boat strikes as a necessary escalation to stem the flow of drugs into the U.S. and asserted that the U.S. is engaged in an “armed conflict” with drug cartels.

Meanwhile, Iranian state television reported on the explosions in Caracas on Saturday, showing images of the Venezuelan capital. Iran has been close to Venezuela for years, in part due to their shared enmity of the U.S.
