Nico Echavarria required victory in the Masters Par-3 competition in Augusta National, because Rory McILroy and Scottie Scheffler were presented before the opening major of the year.
Echavarria and JJ Spaun registered five birds in their 22s without Bogey to complete the top of the ranking for the annual Wednesday event, and both players then exchanged PARS for the first playoffs.
For the third time, the players returned to the ninth hole, where Echavarria fired the tee for three feet and made a winning birdie when Spaun – who lost McILroy last month, had to settle for the second after Bogey’s closure.
Echavarria-Deform of his Augusta National debut-is now trying to become the first player to win the Par-3 competition in the same week, while three players shot holes in one during an unforgettable competition.
“It’s amazing,” Echavarria said. “Hopefully we will change tradition! We’ll see about it, but we had an explosion there. It’s incredible.”
2023 Par-3 Champion Tom Hoge registered a hole on the fourth hole because Captain Ryder Cup Keegan Bradley and the five-time main winner Brooks Koepka created ESA on the sixth hole.
England’s Tyrrell Hatton finished third, while the former masters Bubba Watson and Mark O’Meara two strikes back in a bound neighborhood next to Davis Riley, Matt McCarty and Laurie Canter.
Former world No. 1 Justin Rose and Rasmus Hojgaard published two under 25 years to end up inside the top 10 along the American champion Bryson Brazambeau, with Sir Nicko Faldo part of the group on one floor.
Only 20 players expressed the official sum, and many of the field did not register their score after leaving their wives, partners, friends, children and even grandchildren for them.
McIlroy performed along his daughter Poppy, who received one of the loudly health of the day for throwing long putt on the ninth hole, while Tommy Fleetwood’s son left Frankie players after his impressive Sky Sports interview.
Attention is now turning to the tournament itself, where Scheffler seems to have become the first winner of the Masters, because Tiger Woods and McIlroy have another opportunity to complete the Grand Slam career.
