Played at the Augusta National Golf Club, Georgia.
The climax of this major classic in which the world's greatest golfers competed for the 36th American Masters title.
As an event it holds a very special place in the affections of the world's golfers because of the man who was so closely associated with it for 35 years - the immortal Bobby Jones. Though his death last year will have saddened many, the prestige and honour of his legacy, 'The Masters,' will be proudly borne by the winner of this world classic tournament.
