The Masters

DJ's Masterclass

We had to wait a long time for the 2020 Masters, but I'm sure you'll all agree that it was worth the wait with Dustin Johnson storming to a stunning 20-under tournament record. To see Tiger do what he did on the 12th hole must have reassured you all that it really can happen to anyone!

The quiet-mannered American stalked the course with the swagger and calmness of a true champion. His golf was out of this world. DJ avoided the big mistakes (unfortunately, the same couldn't be said for Tiger after a 10 on the par-3 12th) and took birdies as they came. At one stage his lead was cut to just a single stroke on Sunday afternoon, giving the chasing pack and a resurgent Rory a glimmer of hope, only to put his foot down on the accelerator and never look back.

A fully deserved Green Jacket and he'll rightly be the favourite once again come April. DJ's story speaks for itself: four times he has led in a Major going into Sunday but never converted. Well, I guess it was fifth time lucky! And, as Butch Harmon said during the coverage: "he's the closest we've seen to Tiger".

I also think this second major for Dustin will really give him the confidence to go on and win some more major events. We will soon find out as he will be defending his Masters title in only five months time and I'm sure he won't give the title up without a fight!

Course news

Plenty of work being done

While we have been in lockdown the greenstaff with help from captain Ian and chairman of greens Neil, have been very busy the new tee on the 11th is taking shape and the same on the 18th.

They have also done a lot of drainage work around the course on fairways and greens, and the bunker to the right of the 14th green has been slightly altered.

Mike Harby brought his tractor up on Monday and the plants and bushes along the side of the putting green have now gone.
