Jimenez: one of the rounds of the week

Miguel Angel Jimenez secured himself a return to Augusta National next year after a superb final round 68.
While the majority of the field struggled to break par in difficult conditions, the Spaniard shot up the leaderboard and rounded off a day to remember by chipping in at the last.
The top 16 finishers and ties in the Masters earn an automatic return the following year and Jimenez's four-under par effort vaulted him up to tied 10th - some effort given that he'd opened up this week with a five-over 77.
"It was very satisfying," said the European Tour veteran. "That was the goal for the weekend, you know, just to make the cut on Friday and then hope to jump up as much as possible.
"I hit it very solid from the tee to green all week and I really think that I just need to hole some more putts."
At least he only needed to use his putter on 16 of the 18 holes on Sunday.
As well as chipping in at the last, Jimenez also holed a seven-iron approach for a spectacular eagle two at the seventh.
