Can your pick pass the Masters test?
Experience around Augusta National is vital. Aside from the initial victors when the tournament was in its infancy, there has been only one first-time participant to don a Green Jacket — Fuzzy Zoeller in 1979. Tiger Woods needed three attempts, including a missed cut, before he won in 1997 and did not break par until his seventh competitive round and he was quicker than most. Cross off any first timers on your list.
Average number of attempts for last 10 first-time winners (Zach Johnson and Tiger Woods took three each, Mickelson 12, Mark O’Meara 15) – 7
