All the action from Retief Goosen's play-off victory over Mark Brooks at the 101st US Open at Southern Hills.
First hole
After the drama of the 18th hole on Sunday both players start the play-off in equally dramatic fashion after failing to find the green with their second shots.
Goosen's chip-and-run from the front bunker lips the hole as does a putt from the fringe by Brooks.

Third hole
Brooks is the first player to reach a green in regulation.
Goosen holes another good putt on the par-four third to save par before the American sinks one from six-feet for a birdie and an early lead.

Brooks makes hard work of reaching the green on the longest hole in championship golf.
He pushes his drive to the right and then pulls an iron from the rough on the right to the left.
The American finally reaches the green in four but Goosen is unable to take advantage and also hits the green with his fourth shot after a weak third fell short.
But the pair sink testing putts for a pair of pars.

Brooks, with the honour, hits the heart of the green.

Brooks, having held the lead two holes earlier slips back after his par putt just misses the hole.

Ninth hole
Brooks hits another untidy shot off the tee and finds the trees.
He fluffs his recovery and makes the edge of the green in three, but Goosen is still inside him in two.
As Brooks labours to a bogey-five the South African makes a birdie with a sharp breaking left-to-right putt for an outward 33 compared to the American's 36.
Goosen - two-under; Brooks - one-overTenth hole
Brooks finds the rough to the right of the sharp left-to-right dog-leg and is left with no option but to chip out onto the fairway.
Goosen also finds the rough off the tee but can see the green and lands his second on it to 15 feet.
He sinks another swinging putt and opens up a five shot lead after Brooks cards a second successive bogey.
Goosen - three-under; Brooks - two-over
Eleventh hole
Brooks needs to make up shots quickly but on the 165-yard par-three he pulls the wrong club from his bag to leave himself on the fringe of the green with a longer putt than his opponent.
Both players two-putt for pars.
Goosen - three-under; Brooks - two-over
Twelfth hole
Both players push their tee shots off the fairway to the right but whereas Goosen's finishes deep in the trees Brooks is lucky to see his ball bounce back clear of danger but still in the rough.
But the American's luck does not last and a fluffed chip to the green scuppers his chances of eating into Goosen's lead and the pair head to the second par-five on the course with a pair of fives and a brace of dropped shots.

Thirteenth hole
Goosen pushes another tee shot into the rough and Brooks gives himself a chance on the easiest hole at Southern Hills by finding the middle of the fairway.
But yet again Brooks is proving his own worst enemy.
The American finds a green side bunker which he fails to escape at the first attempt.
He saves par and matches Goosen to remain five shots adrift with five holes remaining.

Fifteenth hole
Brooks hits his approach to the green to within 10 feet but his putt lips out and after a pair of pars Goosen maintains his advantage with the holes running out.
Goosen - two-under; Brooks - three-over
Sixteenth hole
The American refuses to give Goosen the title and fires in another splendid approach which hops over the front bunker and rolls onto the green.
But he just misses on the high side with a birdie putt.
Goosen makes no mistake and assuredly rolls in his par putt in the centre of the hole.
Goosen - two-under; Brooks - three-over
Seventeenth hole
To the delight of the home crowd Brooks finds the heart of the green with his second shot after Goosen over-hits his approach.

Eighteenth hole
Brooks has the honour for the first time since the fifth but finds the rough.
Goosen lands what he hopes will be his final tee shot of the tournament on the fairway.
Brooks fires in a low second but it barely gets off the ground and rolls into a bunker at the front of the green.
Goosen plays a poor approach which creeps onto the front of the green before rolling back onto the fairway.
Goosen opts to putt from off the green and after leaving two efforts woefully short wins the championship with his third effort.
Goosen - level; Brooks - two-over
