masi 51 Posted April 13 Posted April 13 He pulled out of the last three tournaments so that he could use a little known benefit of being the reigning Masters champion. It allowed him to play the course if and when he wants. He basically played it every day for a month leading up to the Masters. Some would call it a cheat code while others would say it innovative Quote

Lt. Aldo Raine Posted April 13 Posted April 13 I don't think he can play it as often as he wants because as far as I understand it, he needs to have a full member with him to play a round That's available to all former champions as well, but obviously not those who haven't won it I suspect the club itself won't have been too pleased he said it publicly Quote

L/H White Posted April 14 Posted April 14 He's played Augusta for the last 18 years, he knows the place like the back of his hand already. People clutching at straws again Quote
Lt. Aldo Raine Posted April 14 Posted April 14 Apparently, all golfers who qualify have the option to practice on the course before the tournament anyway To be fair, I don't think I've read any players complaining Quote

Alf Hartigan Posted May 18 Posted May 18 Didn't watch it but saw it on the news. I like golf but I'd never heard of him until now. Can hopefully carry it on 👏 Quote
