Age limit for masters?

[flap]

Well what do you think? Should there be an age limit or if you win they can wheel you up to hit the Ball?

[Madriver]

because of the hallowed Bobby Jones/ Masters tradition and the importance that most golfers put on this major, I don't think age will ever be a factor in whom the club invites to partcipate. Wether or not it is a symbolic first drive or a last walk through the storied venue, the Masters for most of us is a sacred and anticipated tradition and those champions that can still honor it will always be welcomed. I hope anyway. The ghosts of golfing greatest can probably be seen roaming around amen corner long after the cameras and crowds have left. I can't wait to see golfings legends of old and the legends of today walk Agusta and allow us to enjoy it with them.

It's the only tournament that has a lifetime exception and I like that. If Charles Coody want to show up and shoot 90, that's his business. The real legends have called it quits, but I can see Gary Player until he's dead. I believe this year it is 50 for him, and I'm sure he wants the record, which he will break next year.

Having the past winners around has always been a big part of the Masters, perhaps even the biggest part of all. Let them play for as long as they want to.

I wouldn't like there to be a limit. That having been said, it won't affect whether or not I watch.

It's too bad Jim Thorpe didn't win the Masters at some point in the past. Put him on Augusta this week and I'll bet he doesn't do too bad. He'd just have to get used to walking courses during pro rounds again.

I also don't think there should be an age limit. The past champions have always been a big part of the Masters and I like that. Also, it's always cool when one of the "old" guys gets off to a good start, ala Ben Crenshaw last year.
