A little magic, a lot of maturity lead Garcia to a major

AUGUSTA, Ga. – There they went – the demons and the ghosts and the goblins, all exorcised during a victory celebration he never anticipated at a course he never could have imagined.

Sergio Garcia crouched, shook his fists and unleashed a primal scream – “YESSSSS!!!” – that’s been building for 19 years.

The only line missing from his otherwise stellar résumé was a major title, and now it’s his, all his, after a wild Sunday at the 81st Masters that perfectly embodied his schizophrenic career.

Three ahead.

Tied.

Two down.
