Are you opining on the Masters or the Par three event….if the latter I agree, but I thought you your comment was on the Masters………Mr. Paine was Director at the time it “opened up”….damn shame but he was trying to work around no women members at that time.
Yes, he did. Which makes him one of the "new golfers" who are bringing ruin to traditional (real) golf. So, Whiz Boy, don't bother to reply, as I don't give a rip what you think. Your crowd has done enough damage to the game. Just go buy yourself another six-pack, jump in your cart, and go bouncing down the fairway oblivious to the history of the game.
It is a sad bellwether of the direction of the game. "Serious competition" is becoming an endangered species in the world of golf.
I made that same observation at dinner tonight
Then don’t consume it!
...the Par 3 contest cannot be anymore silly and irrelevant as LIV Golf. Heck, it certainly gets higher TV ratings!
Agree Alan. I think Curb Your Enthusiasm has influenced me too much!
One more thing to dislike about the most overhyped, overrated golf tournament in the world.

But not 100 million golfers, which is Alan's point.
