Day 1 of the Masters is finally here! Yesterday was a day of relaxation, fun and family for the golfers as they competed in the beloved par 3 challenge. No golfer that ever won the par 3 challenge went on to win the Masters. This factoid doesn't bode well for the 2024 par 3 champion Rickie Fowler. Rickie shot a -5 through the 9 hole challenge. Five players also earned hardware for recording holes-in-one. Luke List recorded the day's first ace, followed by Gary Woodland, Sepp Straka, Lucas Glover and Viktor Hovland.
