Charl Schwartzel (pronounced Karl) put together one of the great final-day rallies in Masters history en route to a 14-under green jacket-winning performances at Augusta.

Schwartzel, who entered the Masters ranked 29th in the world, will get a major boost from his first championship in a Major. Schwartzel leaps to a career-best No. 11 ranking in the world after the Masters.

Other major movers in the world rankings:

England’s Like Donald jumped up to No. 3 after chipping in on the final hole for a share of fourth place. Lee Westwood, also of England, is ranked No. 2 in the world, followed by Phil Mickelson at No. 3 and Tiger Woods at No. 4. Tiger still holds the record for most weeks at No. 1 during the 24-year history of the World Rankings with an incredible 623 weeks at the top.

Rounding out the Top 10 are Graeme McDowell (No. 6), England's Paul Casey (No. 7), Steve Stricker (No. 8), Sunday's Masters goat Rory McIlroy (No. 9) and Matt Kuchar (No. 10).

You know you've had a bad day when you're in a position to win your first ever major and instead, you fall apart down the stretch—correction, absolutely collapse—and have to walk off the course at Augusta as a 21-year-old who could've donned the green jacket at the Masters.

That pretty much summed up Rory McIlroy's Sunday, as he had 24 hours he'd like to forget, but won't soon do so. So after you've stunk up the joint and just want to slink off to the clubhouse to avoid the media and have a few pops—McIlroy is 21 so he can legally drink these days—but instead, you find a warm presence to console you in the face of...WWE honcho Shane McMahon. What the ?!?

Talk about a bad day getting worse.

My guess is that the only club Shane McMahon knows anything about starts with the word strip.

But hey, instead of going down in golf lore as a historic champion to wear the green jacket, Rory's always got a future headlining a future Wrestlemania show with Snooki.

By now everyone knows the deal, magical final day win for Charl Schwartzel to capture the 2011 Masters. But really, what are the takeaways from the Masters?

Tiger Woods is back...kinda. Tiger showed glimpses of his brilliance and the competitive fire that made him a worldwide icon. The big question is: Can he string together a full tournament of greatness or will we just see flashes and incredible rounds? I'm guessing this is the first step and Tiger Woods will be back to winning a major this year.

The Aussies were fun to watch...but not as much fun as Jason Day's wife. Yea, I said it.

Rory McIlroy will be fine. He's 21. Oh sure this was an epic collapse, but it won't have Greg Norman-like lingering effects. He's too talented and has too much career left to let one bad day keep him down.

I'm curious to see what the ratings are like for this year's Masters. My guess is with Tiger back in the mix on a Sunday and a late charge to keep him in the equation until the final few holes of the tournament, we'll see some monster ratings for the weekend.

Charl Schwartzel emerged as one of the most unlikely Masters winners ever as he captured the 2011 Masters with a 14-under at Augusta. Schwartzel's victory left viewers asking: Who the heck is he?

The 26-year-old South African had never finished in the Top 10 in a major tournament and has spent the majority of his career on the European Tour.

In what was one of the most riveting final days of the Masters ever, fans were glued to Tiger Woods charge on the front nine to get to 10-under and finish fourth and Rory McIlroy's historic collapse on the final day to go from 12-under to 4-under.
