Golf: Are these the best 5 shots every pulled off at the famed Augusta National?
The gates to golf’s utopian fields are open once more with Augusta welcoming the biggest stars of the PGA Tour, and LIV Golf, for the Masters.
Exhausted fans could be forgiven for almost choking on their Pimento sandwiches at Augusta as each player speaks of fixing the divide they’ve created.only see such an event four times a year – nearly two years since LIV Golf’s inaugural tournament – boggles the mind. DeChambeau pocketed a reported A$190m to join LIV Golf — so it’s little wonder that his comments were met with some scoffs.
But PGA Tour players are not without a case of their own to answer. Select members have retaliated to LIV Golf in such a way that made the task of unification harder than ever, even if it ultimately earnt them just financial rewards. “It also throws into sharp that the events that matter are not on the PGA Tour or on LIV Golf. There are these other things . And that’s another structural problem for the game.
But it hasn’t taken long for Rahm, now just five tournaments into his LIV Golf switch, to show a glimmer of remorse. “I’m not going to lie; for everybody who said this would be easy, some things have been, but not being able to defend some titles that mean a lot to me hasn’t,” he said. “He sounds like he was misled. Like his departure was going to be the tipping point. It turns out it wasn’t at all,” Chamblee said on the Golf Channel.He added: “Sounds to me, reading between the lines, he thought his movement there was the domino and it would lead to this coming together of the different factions.
For example, amateur Nick Dunlap became the first amateur since 1991 to win a PGA Tour title this year when he clinched the American Express. Viktor Hovland, Matt Fitzpatrick, Max Homa, Tommy Fleetwood and Collin Morikawa have all had their figures decline by more than 1.40 strokes. Rory has been far from his best this season – but that’s down to some swing tweaks with his new coach.“I think there’s just an epidemic of distraction on the PGA Tour,” Chamblee said.
Meanwhile, fellow Golf Channel analyst Johnson Wagner said it’s not just distractions infecting the big stars, but also complacency. It’s widely believed a second green jacket has his name on it, should he keep it together between the ears.
