The Masters 2024: Augusta in numbers
Last updated:
After an exciting weekend at Augusta National, we take a look at where the 2024 Masters was won and lost. Here are the standout numbers from across the tournament
With the 88th edition of The Masters drawn to a close, we look at the key numbers from across the tournament to find out where Scottie Scheffler picked up points on the field and maybe where others missed out on their opportunity to be victorious at Augusta National.
With the strong winds and firm course conditions at the start of the week, scoring was tricky for the best players in the world. So we take a look at which holes, in particular, tended to ruin rounds and which holes had opportunities to pick up some good scores.
