Player to be an honorary starter at Masters
The original “Big Three” will be together again on the first tee at Augusta National next year for the Masters.
AUGUSTA, Ga. (AP) — The original “Big Three” will be together again on the first tee at Augusta National next year for the Masters.
Gary Player has agreed to join Arnold Palmer and Jack Nicklaus as an honorary starter at the Masters. They have 13 green jackets among them. The last time they were on the opening tee together was in 2001, when they played in the same group over the first two rounds. Next year, they will hit only one shot in a ceremonial start to the tournament.
