There are now a lot of golf ball tracing apps on the market  – but not everyone uses them in the same way. Some people try to improve their game in some way, others just like to show off their impressive shots. Meanwhile, in the third category are those who bring joy to the world. You have done ball-tracing correctly, sir, and we commend you. Give this man a green jacket.

Tony Finau took a slightly different approach to his bag setup for the Masters, choosing to play with two dedicated drivers in his bag. This has a lot to do with Finau’s game and how that interacts with the layout at Augusta. He put a second driver into his bag to give himself additional shaping options at the first Major of the year. Finau tends towards hitting a fade off the tee, sacrificing a little bit of the distance he could get in order to be more accurate. However, at Augusta it can be of great benefit to a player to be able to consistently hit a draw off the tee at certain spots on th ..read more

Gamblers will tell you that a punt on the game, race or round just makes watching sport that much more interesting and engaging. It’s hard to argue that when you check out this gentleman who put down a sum on the final hole of the Masters being a par. He goes through every emotion in the book across four shots from Scottie Scheffler. He’s a nervous wreck after Scheffler finds the bunker – and only slightly improves after the save, but the chip on eases his nerves.

Justin Thomas has made a few notable tweaks to his bag after a start to the season that has seen him test out several new options. The result of that testing is a new look setup that Thomas will hope gives him more from his longer irons. Thomas and Titleist Tour rep J.J. Van Wezenbeeck have evaluated the irons that Thomas has used since the 2023 U.S. Open and come up with a new configuration. Having used a set of ultra-custom 621.JT blade irons since the US Open at the Los Angeles Country Club, Thomas has decided to make a change to his 4-iron. Thomas upgraded his 4-iron blade to a somewhat mo ..read more

Akshay Bhatia stands out on tour for so much more than simply being left-handed. Bhatia draws a lot of attention with his putting style and choice of club. His Texas Open win saw him secure a place at the Masters and earned him high praise from another famous leftie in Phil Mickelson. “No, he doesn’t need to do anything different,” Mickelson told Sportskeeda. “Just keep fine-tuning what he’s doing. He’s on a great path, and he’s gotten so good that all he has to do is just fine-tune, fine-tune. He doesn’t have to do anything different, and he’s already incredible. He’ll just keep getting bette ..read more

Being the wife of a golfer or golf fan isn’t easy. You’ll have to put up with moments where it seems he is dialled into a totally different frequency.

Collin Morikawa pulled a Masters surprise when he brought out a new flatstick for the second round at Augusta National. And the change appeared to work a treat as Morikawa put himself in contention for the Green Jacket. After beginning the Masters with a new mallet putter, he switched to a familiar blade for the second and third rounds, shooting 70 and 69, respectively, to secure a berth in Sunday’s final pairing. Morikawa’s three-round total of 6-under 210 put him one behind 54-hole leader Scottie Scheffler, and though he eventually finished in fourth after a final 74, he spoke posi ..read more

Tiger Woods has made so much history at Augusta that his name is forever linked with The Masters. He was unable to make more happy memories at the 2024 edition of the famous tournament, however, carding the worst round of his major career on Saturday. But that was after he had posted scores of 73 and 72 to make the cut for a record 24th consecutive time cut at Augusta National,  He finished the weekend 16 over par and clearly struggled to get through the four rounds, but he still managed to delight the crowds at Augusta.   Some of his approach play might have been considered a l ..read more

The Masters Par 3 contest is known for producing spectacular aces, with over 100 sunk since the event started in 1960. Augusta National’s nine-hole par-3 layout is just a stone’s throw from the tournament course, but the contest itself is worlds away from the intense atmosphere of the Masters. Far more relaxed, players often pull off some truly remarkable shots to sink stunning holes-in-one and thrill the crowds that pack into Augusta for a Masters starter. Players sign up to compete in groups of three players, with their significant others and children also traditionally being allowed to enjo ..read more

The Masters sports one of the most elite fields in golf, but only a handful of players will truly be in contention for the title. We haven’t seen a true rank outsider take ownership of a green jacket since South Africa’s Charl Schwartzel swooped in to take advantage of Rory McIlroy’s 2011 implosion. Here we look at how the Masters’ favorites shape up. Hideki Matsuyama Hideki Matsuyama has made a fine start to 2023 capped with a Genesis Invitational win and studded by several top 20 finishes. Matsuyama undoubtedly has a low round in him after he shot an incredible 62 at the Sentry. There will b ..read more
