Ian Poulter played his way into the Masters on Sunday by winning the Houston Open, and he did it in typical Poulter fashion, by holing a clutch putt down the stretch and celebrating like a wild man.
The Englishman holed a 20-foot birdie putt on the 72nd hole to force a playoff with Beau Hossler, and let loose with a chest-pounding celebration before finishing off Hossler on the first extra playoff hole.

The win comes one week after Poulter was mistakenly told he was in the Masters before losing in the quarterfinals of the WGC-Dell Technologies Match Play. It’s his first worldwide win since 2012 and his first-ever stroke-play victory in the United States.
