Lost Masters - Book
Curt Sampson
Travel back in time with Lost Masters to 1968 to relive the historical event in which a non-American was barred from winning on a technicality.
Curt Sampson is a master of golf history. In this book, he turns his mind to the place one golf tournament held in the wider American scene, and in doing so casts a light upon the continuing controversy of the Augusta Golf Club and the Masters, and on one terrible year in American life. Golf is a self-regulating game, meaning, it is up to the individual player to call 'fouls' that they commit if no one saw it; or if they have too many clubs in their bag, it's the player's responsibility to own up to it and take the penalty. It's the single thing that sets golf apart from any other sport. One of the key things is the scorecard that a player keeps, and it is illegal to sign an incorrect scorecard. In 1968, three players went into the final holes of the Augusta Masters, the premier golf tournament in the world, with a chance to win. At the seventeenth, de Vicenzo's playing partner recorded for him that he'd made the hole in four, when in fact he'd made it in three; de Vicenzo signed the card in error, and on because of this, was not allowed to post the correct score, meaning he lost the tournament. Travel back in time with Lost Masters to 1968 to relive the historical event in which a non-American was barred from winning on a technicality. Hard Cover.
