The field for this week’s Masters Tournament at Augusta National Golf Club will include 11 former European Challenge Tour players, including three Major champions.
Challenge Tour and MastersKoepka, a four-time Challenge Tour winner, finished second at Augusta National in 2019 – one-shot behind five-time Masters champion Tiger Woods. Rose has been runner up twice – in 2015 and 2017 – while Oosthuizen came agonisingly close to winning in 2012 only to be defeated on the second hole of a sudden-death playoff as Bubba Watson won the first of his two Masters titles.
Robert MacIntyre, the 2019 Sir Henry Cotton Rookie of the Year winner, impressed on his first Masters appearance in 2021, finishing in a tie for 12th and he will now look to become the second Masters champion to hail from Scotland after Sandy Lyle in 1988.
Englishmen Matthew Fitzpatrick, Tyrrell Hatton and Tommy Fleetwood all learned their trade on the Challenge Tour and they will look to follow in the footsteps of Sir Nick Faldo and Danny Willett in becoming the third Englishman to put on the Green Jacket.
South Africans Christiaan Bezuidenhout and Erik van Rooyen have both won on the Challenge Tour. Bezuidenhout triumphed at the 2020 Dimension Data Pro-Am, an event co-sanctioned by the Challenge Tour and Sunshine Tour, while van Rooyen won the Hainan Open in China. The pair will look to become the third South African to win at Augusta National after three-time Masters champion Gary Player and 11-time DP World Tour winner Charl Schwartzel, who triumphed in 2011.
South African Garrick Higgo and Guido Migliozzi of Italy will be looking to perform on one of golf’s biggest stages this week as they both make their Masters debut.
He is among the most successful sportsmen ever, as well as one of the richest in the world. When it comes to firsts Tiger Woods is always present: 15 majors won, 110 professional tournaments, the most successful golfer in the history of this sport. Statistics that explain why he managed to stay at the top of the world ranking for 683 weeks (of which 281 consecutive) and above all because in 2014 he became the first sportsman in the world to have broken the billion dollar barrier. Astronomical figure that also justifies the fact that Tiger Woods can afford a yacht like the Privacy, a real fairytale boat. And obviously we are talking about something that has cost a lot.
If you imagine a luxury yacht and some comfort on board, then Privacy has it. 48 meters long, with a total area of 600 square meters, this yacht was purchased by the golfer in 2004. Equipped with five cabins capable of accommodating a total of ten people, she also boasts four quarters for nine crew members. Tiger Woods usually calls it "my dinghy" even if everything looks like a dinghy: with a cruising speed of 18 knots, he also has a gym on board where the golfer keeps training. Woods, in fact, prefers to stay on this yacht during the tournaments held in New York.
With cherry wood interiors, Privacy also features an elevator for three people, a huge Jacuzzi, large enough to accommodate eight people, and the inevitable cinema room and corner bar. The extra something for this mega yacht is provided by the area that Tiger Woods wanted to be dedicated to scuba diving: this also explains the presence of a decompression chamber (inflatable) and an area dedicated to filling oxygen cylinders. The luxuries are also completed by three jet skis and two scooters for short shore excursions. Obviously, all of this has a price: Privacy cost 17 million euros and its annual maintenance amounts to 1.7 million euros.
