One of golf’s most prestigious events opens this (Thursday) morning, the Masters Tournament at Augusta National in Georgia.
Steve Stricker and Jerry Kelly, both of Madison, will be among those vying for the green jacket.
Wednesday, Stricker shot a three-under-par 24 in the Masters’ Par-Three Contest.
Kelly was at one-over-26 and two-time U.S. Open champion Andy North of Madison went two-over at 29.
North is now a golf analyst for ESPN, which will show the first two rounds of the Masters today and Friday.
Rory Sabbatini won the Par-Three Contest and that winner has never won the Masters in the same year.
