The Masters Information
"It is staggering to think that one of the world's most famous and beautiful golf courses was nothing more than 365 acres of farming land not so long ago. But two men, Bob Jones and Clifford Roberts, purchased the land for $70,000 in 1931, and it is now the home to Augusta National Golf Course. The inaugural tournament was hosted on 22 March 1934 - won by Horton Smith with a one-stroke lead over Craig Wood. Then in 1965 and 1966, Jack Nicklaus etched his name forever in Masters folklore. The ""Golden Bear"" became the first golfer to successfully defend his Green Jacket. He also holds the record for the most titles won at Augusta with six, his last coming in 1986 at the age of 46. At the age of 21 Woods became the youngest player to ever win the title in 1997 with a phenomenal display. He finished 12 shots clear in a record score 18-under 270, beating Ben Hogan's 44-year scoring record in the process. Augusta has since undergone its first major overhaul. Holes have been extended and teeing positions have been altered. Experts predict that Augusta may play as many as three shots more following the changes. " |
