How about Greg Norman?

”Our honorary starter never won the Masters because he seemingly choked on the back nine every year.“😜

Yea but they’d be asking him to start the tournament, not finish it. He’d do fine 😜

"Next up on the #1 tee, the best player for the start of the Masters to never win the tournament, Greg Norman!"

If Augusta wasn't as strongly formal/traditional as it always has been that would be pretty funny, but it'll never happen for obvious reasons.

Be fair, some years he started on the front.

They could leave the Masters bubble and focus on total career achievements, but maybe that deviates from the intention. Eventually they may have to choose players who only won once. «First on the tee, Patrick Reed!». Or maybe they’ll be off with the whole thing.

There aren’t that many multiple winners these days. Phil, Bubba and Tiger are the only ones with wins this millennia.

Traditional rating measurements show a decrease in viewership, but imho, the streaming options are pretty good and probably took away viewing via cable. Anecdotal, but the comments section also complimenting the live streaming on the site.

I totally forgot with the schedule change, Dustin Johnson only got to enjoy being Masters Champion for only 5 months. He didn't get to enjoy being announced current Masters champion say at the USO, British Open or PGA Championship.

That's fine. His Masters was an asterisk Masters anyway. 🙂

Yes, but at least Tiger Woods got to be the reigning Masters Champion for an additional seven months.
