But yes, Woods did win the Masters. And today, Tuesday April 7, would have been the day that Woods would have hosted the Champions Dinner at Augusta National, an annual tradition that celebrates the previous year’s winner.
Then coronavirus happened, and the Masters was postponed.
So Woods did the only sensible thing — he went and had his own Champions Dinner, with his family, at what appears to be his home. He put on the green jacket and everything, put out a replica trophy, and his family got in the spirit as well.

The best from Jack Nicklaus, Tiger Woods, Arnold Palmer and more in this recap of lowest totals at the storied Augusta National.
While one impeccable round of golf at the Masters can catapult someone to the front of the pack, it takes four days of steady play to ultimately earn a place in PGA history.
The setting for the tradition unlike any other, Augusta National is one of the most challenging courses in golf … that, actually, has never been “officially rated.” (However, there are occasional whispers of 78-point-something.)
As the golfing world looks ahead at what will be a quiet second week in April this year—the 2020 Masters joining a long list of postponed events due to the coronavirus pandemic—let’s take a look back at the pros who overcame the nerves, “Amen Corner,” and the pressures of major championship golf to card the best four-day totals in Masters history.
And, as golf can oftentimes provide, pay attention to the touch of Lady Luck because not all of these scores ended with a green jacket.

Arnie came up two strokes short of tying the then-record total of 274 (held by Ben Hogan). But he did outlast his rival Jack Nicklaus while picking up his fourth Masters—which would be his last major win.

Golfweek surveyed 39 golfers, including 14 green jacket winners and 24 major champions in all, to get their views on Augusta National.
Rare is the golfer who doesn’t light up when talking about Augusta National Golf Club and the Masters. The spiritual setting that warms the heart, the singular tournament that stirs the senses. The explosion of colors, the anticipation of a Sunday charge. A 12th hole that basks in beauty while serving as a devilish conquest, a green jacket that triggers dreams and lives on forever.
The gathering every April among the Georgia pines is matchless, from Augusta National Women’s Amateur to the Drive, Chip and Putt competition. While we won’t be seeing any of these events in the coming days due to the coronavirus pandemic, we think you’ll still be interested in reading about Masters traditions, the iconic holes at Augusta National and your favorite golfers who would have been in the field this month.
Golfweek surveyed 39 golfers, including 14 winners of the green jacket and 24 major champions in all, to get their views on certain features of Augusta National and the Masters. From putting to eating to predicting to offering their architectural viewpoints, we’ll roll out their takes on a variety of topics in the next 10 days.
Should the tee at the 13th hole be moved back?
“No. You could solve the problem, if, instead, the golf ball is brought back. If you keep taking the 13th tee back, half the field won’t be able to get to the green in two. Even with the current golf ball, you can get yourself in trouble. But if you take the tee back farther, anybody who can’t get it around the corner is just going to hit it out to the right and make it a three-shot hole, and the hole loses all its character.” – Six-time Masters champion Jack Nicklaus
“Definitely not. Augusta National members, I could have saved you $25 million, or whatever the land cost. Here’s all you do. You plant a tree 20 yards off the tee on the left toward the corner. Now guys can’t go left. They have to go around the corner. I’ll buy them the tree.” – 2012 U.S. Open champion Webb Simpson

“Can they move it left a little bit? That would make it more challenging.” – 2013 Masters champion Adam Scott
“Yes. Because the second shot, the risk-reward shot, there is too little risk when you’re hitting an 8- or 9-iron in.” – Three-time Masters champion Phil Mickelson
“I don’t care.” – 2016 U.S. Open champion Dustin Johnson
“I think so. Now, there are a few guys where it’s become almost like a driving range shot, a short par-4 hole. Distance is an advantage but I think the fairways should be the same width everywhere, and if you move it back, it’s still an advantage to move it back further because you’d hit iron vs. hybrid. You’d still have to hit the drive straight. Right now, the long hitters don’t have to.” – 2015 Masters champion Jordan Spieth
“If they move it back 10 yards, maybe just five yards even, and just put a slightly different angle it would be very hard for anyone to fly it over the trees. For me, I don’t want it to go back. But I can see why they should do it, because the bombers fly it over the trees and have an 8-iron in and that’s not right.” – Two-time Masters champion Bernhard Langer

“No. The tee could be lowered by a few feet and then people couldn’t take it over the trees. I’ve always said you should be able to hit driver on a par-5, but I don’t see them needing to go back. It’s a great risk-reward hole. I get seeing them wanting guys to hit longer clubs into the green, but if they lowered the tee box by 5 feet, then people couldn’t go over the trees.” – Four-time major champion Rory McIlroy
“No. It would take away the 3 and the 7 and bring in a lot more 4s, 5s and 6s.” – 2013 U.S. Open champion Justin Rose
“Yeah, probably. More and more guys are cutting the corner. It’s not easy to do, but still. It pays to be long there.” – 2015 PGA champion Jason Day
“I think you can lengthen it 15, 20 yards, and shift it 5 yards to the left. That would take the chance of the really longer hitters taking it over the trees and having wedge in their hand. If you move it too far back, then you take out the chance of getting home in two because no one’s going for that green in two with a 3-wood.” – 2018 Masters champion Patrick Reed
“No. Because then I don’t know if I could get home in two.” – 2007 Masters champion Zach Johnson
“No, because it’s a fun risk-reward hole. You still have to hit a very good tee shot around the corner to get home in two. Yes, I know what Bubba did that one time, but 99% of the guys still have to make the ball turn and take on that corner to have a mid-iron into that green.” – Luke Donald
“I could go either way. But if they put a tree to the left just off the tee box, that’s all they have to do to make it harder to cut the corner.” – Rickie Fowler
“Yeah. So many players are making that hole look silly. It used to be only Bubba could do it, hitting it over the trees. Now there are at least 10 guys who can blow it over the trees on the left.” – 2010 U.S. Open champion Graeme McDowell
“No. Because it has so much turn to it now that the new golf balls make it very difficult to make it turn that much, so it requires a perfect golf shot.” – Kevin Kisner

“The thing about 13 is it favors left-handers. For the right-handers you have to hook it and that’s not an easy shot. But it would be quite nice to see them push it back a little and have the guys go into the green with long irons and even woods.” – Two-time U.S. Open champion Retief Goosen
“No. When you look back at it from history’s standpoint, you don’t mess with that. You leave it as is. And trees are growing, so it’s going to get tougher. Let us create more history.” – Two-time Masters champion Bubba Watson
“I do not make any recommendations at that place.” – Matt Kuchar
“No. It’s a great risk-reward hole at the distance it is right now.” – Tony Finau
“No. That risk-reward makes that hole great.” – Patton Kizzire
“It doesn’t need to go back. For me, in my 60s, if I hit a really good drive, I could have a 5-iron into the green. But it’s not an easy shot because of all the slope.” – 1988 Masters champion Sandy Lyle
“I don’t think so. It’s one of the best par-5s in golf. I get what they want, but they can just move that tee box a little to the left.” – 2019 U.S. Open champion Gary Woodland
“It shouldn’t be moved back, it should be moved left. Five or 10 yards. That would make all the difference. It would make the guys have to curve the ball more to get around the corner and you couldn’t go over the trees. Without making it longer, you’re still making it more difficult.” – Brandt Snedeker
“Last year it felt OK to me, but obviously, we’re getting into an era in the modern game where these guys are hitting the ball so far, with such great accuracy, that there may be a time when moving the tee back needs to be done. But we haven’t gotten to that point yet.” – 2008 Masters champion Trevor Immelman
“No. It’s my favorite par-5 in all of golf. I love that hole. Yes, as we’ve seen over the years some guys hit unbelievable drives and have wedges into the green, but it’s just a few guys and they have to hit it perfect on a perfect line. It will be a sad time if they move that tee back.” – Billy Horschel
“No. It’s such an iconic hole, so if you can swing it around that corner, you deserve to have a shorter club into the green. That hole is too exciting to change anything.” – 2011 PGA champion Keegan Bradley
“I think it could be moved back a little and moved to the left a little, just to make it a little more challenging. They’re so powerful now. Maybe move it back 10 or 15 yards and a little to the left.” – 1998 Masters champion Mark O’Meara
“No. In a perfect world, the bombers of the bombers would have to clear some taller trees, but the dogleg is in a pretty cool spot. But I’ll say this – those guys who do hit it over the trees, they’ve hit an unbelievable shot. Not just because they’re long, it’s not an easy shot. You go left there you’re dead. I think it’s a great reward for them because they’ve earned the right to be rewarded for their bombs.” – Bill Haas

“No. It’s not like that fairway is wide open and you can blast away. You still have to curve it and you know if you mis-hit it Rae’s Creek is there to make you pay. It’s not as easy to get it around the corner as some think it is.” – Charles Howell III
“No more than 20 yards. But I’d say no, because you have to think on that tee shot. I think 20 yards would be fair, but as long as they make it where you can still take on the corner, which isn’t easy, then OK. But if they take that out of the equation, no way. You need risk-reward there.” – Keith Mitchell
“No. The charm of 13 is you came make 3 and 7 just like that. If you move it back, it will take more 3s and 7s out of play.” – 2003 U.S. Open champion Jim Furyk
“No, it’s a great hole the way it is.” – Nick Watney

“On March 13, we announced the postponement of the Masters Tournament and the Augusta National Women’s Amateur based upon the risks associated with the Coronavirus COVID-19, a pandemic that continues to impact lives everywhere.
“We remain very mindful of the extraordinary and unprecedented challenges presented by the Coronavirus around the world. As such, we continue to keep in close contact with local, state and national health authorities to help inform our decisions.
“In collaboration with the leading organizations in golf, Augusta National Golf Club has identified November 9-15 as the intended dates to host the 2020 Masters. While more details will be shared in the weeks and months to come, we, like all of you, will continue to focus on all mandated precautions and guidelines to fight against the Coronavirus. Along the way, we hope the anticipation of staging the Masters Tournament in the fall brings a moment of joy to the Augusta community and all those who love the sport.
“We want to emphasize that our future plans are incumbent upon favorable counsel and direction from health officials. Provided that occurs and we can conduct the 2020 Masters, we intend to invite those professionals and amateurs who would have qualified for our original April date and welcome all existing ticket holders to enjoy the excitement of Masters week.”
President Trump on the Masters and sports returning
President Donald Trump was asked about the Masters issuing a re-scheduled target date of Nov. 9-15 during Monday’s Coronavirus Task Force press conference.
A target date of having the 2020 Masters Tournament from Nov. 9-15 will coincide with Tennessee’s football game at Georgia on Nov. 14.
“I hope it’s rescheduled,” Trump said during Monday’s Coronavirus Task Force press conference. “I hope football is able to start. I hope baseball can get to play a little bit. I hope basketball can maybe do their playoffs. I mean, hey, I have no interests or anything other than I want what’s good for the country.
“A lot of people are tired of looking at games that are five years old. I looked the other day, I saw somebody, I said, “Wow, he looks great.” I forgot. I said, “Oh, that was nine years ago.” I said, “He’s really in great shape.” Well, not in great shape now, but he was in great shape then. It was nine years ago. You get tired of looking at nine year old baseball games and playoff games that took place 12 years ago. I don’t have much time to do that, frankly, but that’s what people are doing, and they want to see sports. Sports are a great thing for this country and I hope football can start.”
Eight players had at least a share of the lead on the final nine holes, with a five-way tie at the top at one point, at the 2011 Masters.
Tiger Woods was working on a new swing going into the 2011 Masters.
He hadn’t won a PGA Tour title since the fall of 2009, a major since the summer of 2008, a Masters since the spring of 2005. His best finish in five starts before the Masters was a tie for 10th.
And he was still climbing out of the abyss that included public scandal, a divorce, and a shattered reputation that took root the night of Thanksgiving 2009 when he drove his car into a fire hydrant.
Not exactly a perfect prep en route to a fifth green jacket.
Still, Woods felt ready.
“Mm-hmm,” was his answer as he nodded his head in the affirmative when asked if he could win. “I’ve prepared all year to peak four times a year and that has not change, and that’s what I’m trying to do.”
After rounds of 71-66, Woods was three back. A Saturday 74, however, dropped him seven shots behind Rory McIlroy, the former Boy Wonder who seized command from the get-go with a 65 on Thursday. Rounds of 69-70 had him four clear of the field heading into the final round.
Then all sorts of crazy had a Sunday tee time.
Woods began an avalanche of roars and red numbers with birdies on four of his first seven holes. When his eagle putt dropped on the eighth, the earth shook and he was one back. When he made the turn, he had a share of the lead. Nine holes in, seven-shot deficit gone, vintage Woods was back.
But more than the red shirt was rumbling. Charl Schwartzel knocked in a 100-foot chip on the first for birdie and holed out from 108 yards for eagle on the fourth. Angel Cabrera made three birdies on his first eight holes. Jason Day, Adam Scott and Geoff Ogilvy, all trying to become the first Aussie to win the Masters, stayed within touch of the leaders. Luke Donald was right there. McIlroy turned in 1-over 37 but still held a share of the lead.
And then came the zaniest back nine you’ve ever seen among the Georgia pines. Eight players had at least a share of the lead on the final nine holes, with a five-way tie at the top at one point.
Ogilvy made five consecutive birdies to grab a share. Donald birdied four of his last six after dumping a ball into Rae’s Creek on the 12th. Scott took the lead with a birdie from two feet on the 16th and held it with a par from 17 feet on the 17th. Day birdied the last two to get into the clubhouse with a share of the lead with Scott.

McIlroy, on the other hand, tripled-bogeyed the 10th when his drive ended up between two white cabins 50 yards left of the fairway, bogeyed the 11th and four-putted the 12th for double and was done.
“I hung in pretty well on the front nine, then hit the tee shot on the 10th and I became unraveled,” said McIlroy, who shot 80. “And I just couldn’t get it back. I’ll have more chances. Hopefully this will build some character.”
It did – he won the U.S. Open two months later.
While McIlroy couldn’t get it back, Woods couldn’t keep it going. After a 5-under 31, he stalled. He missed two putts inside four feet – on the 12th for par and on the 15th for eagle – and he could only match par on the final nine and signed for a 67 to finish in a tie for fourth.
“I should have shot an easy 3 or 4 under on the back nine and I only posted even,” said Woods, who was winless in 21 tournaments over 17 months. “I hit it good all day. This entire weekend I hit it good. So that was a nice feeling. I just had a tough time on the greens.”
Schwartzel didn’t have any difficulties on the greens as he made Masters history. He became the first Masters champion to finish with birdies on the final four holes – from 10, 15, 12 and 18 feet – a 4-2-3-3 finish on the scorecard that showed a 66, the best final round by a winner in 22 years. His 14-under 274 total was two clear of Day and Scott.
“The birdie on 15 was big. That got me going,” he said. “And this game’s a funny game. Things just happen. Sometimes it sort of just snowballs.
“There are so many roars that go on around Augusta. Especially the back nine. It echoes through those trees. Every single hole you walk down, someone has done something, and I’d be lying if I said I wasn’t looking at the leaderboard. But sometimes I would look at it and not register what I was looking at, and I think that sort of helped.
“So this is a dream come true. It was quite crazy out there, quite loud, but it feels so good to be wearing this jacket.”
This is the 17th story in a series looking at each of Tiger Woods’ appearances at the Masters. Catch up on the series here.

Since the Masters is postponed until November of this year, Golfweek surveyed 39 PGA Tour golfers to get their views on certain features of Augusta National and the Masters. We asked, “What is the scariest uphill putt during the Masters?” Here are some of their responses. “I didn’t know there was such a thing.” – Six-time Masters champion Jack Nicklaus “From the bottom left to the top right on 6… scary because you have to give it so much more and think you have to race it by the hole to get it there.” – Three-time Masters champion Phil Mickelson “It’s at No. 10, because it’s actually quicker than it looks towards Rae’s Creek, so you see so many players go long on uphill putts on 10.” – Luke Donald “From pin-high to the right of the front-left pin on No. 1. You have to go over a hump and then it’s downhill. You can say bye-bye to your ball in a hurry.” – Matt Kuchar “No. 7 is pretty decently difficult. When you have to putt to the front middle pin and you have to putt up and over a ridge and then it can get by the hole and go off the green.” – Jason Day “Gosh, at No. 10… because everything is sloping back toward you but you know it’s heading towards Rae’s Creek, so it throws you a bit.” – Two-time Masters champion Bubba Watson “If you’re front-right on 5 and the flag is on the back, you could just putt it off the green.” – 2011 Masters champion Charl Schwartzel “At No. 16, front-right pin. When you’re on the other tier, either pine-high or a little on got if, yeah, that’s a tough one.” – 2003 U.S. Open champion Jim Furyk “Thirteen, from the bottom to the back-right pin. It’s the slowest putt there but you can’t hit that past because you could go off the green into a swale or be above the hole…” – Tony Finau

The 2020 Masters has been postponed until November, but Puma Golf has released the gear Rickie Fowler was going to wear this week at Augusta
When the Augusta National Golf Club announced that it was postponing the 2020 Masters because of the coronavirus pandemic, it not only disappointed the players and golf fans around the world, it put many golf manufacturers in an awkward position.
Several companies annually create limited-edition merchandise like golf bags, shoes and apparel that is themed around symbols of the season’s first major. Those products had already been created by the time it was announced that the Masters would not be played in April.
With the tournament now pushed back until the week of November 9, should they make the merchandise available to golf lovers anyway, or hold on to it and try selling it later?
Puma Golf has decided that starting Monday, which would have been the first day of Masters week, it is forging ahead. The company is making the Experience Collection available, including four new polos, hats, shoes and a special bag co-designed by Vessel.

The Eleven, Twelve, Thirteen and Tournament polo shirts ($75 each) are made from Puma’s proprietary Fusionyard Flex fabric that allows for freedom of movement and should help to keep golfers dry and comfortable. The number-named shirts each have a floral print that matches the plant name of that hole at Augusta National, with Eleven have white dogwood blooms, Twelve featuring golden bells flowers and Thirteen covered in azaleas. Those holes comprise Amen Corner, and the Tournament polo’s print features a blend of all three plants.
Puma is also including a limited-edition version of the Poweradapt Caged ($170) and Ignite shoes ($220) in the Tournament print.

Rickie Fowler had planned to wear those shirts and shoes around Augusta National this week, and carry his clubs in this limited-edition Vessel stand bag that was co-created with Cobra Golf ($599). Like the apparel and shoes, it has been given the Tournament print that features white dogwoods, golden bells and azaleas.
From Adam Scott and Tiger Woods to Phil Mickelson and Bubba Watson, see the gear used by every Masters winner since 2010.
The Augusta National Golf Club announced on Monday that the 2020 Masters is now scheduled to start on November 9. However, golf fans around the world are sharing their thoughts and appreciation for the Masters this week on social media because the tournament was originally slated to be contested this week.
To help you get in the Masters spirit, check out this list of every golf club used by every Masters winner since 2010.
