2020 was a strange time. The world was indoors, face coverings muffled voices, and for sports fans, there was nothing to watch on television. But, as everyone knows, summer went on and some things started to return to “normal.”
The PGA Tour was back in action after a several-month hiatus which started with the cancellation of round 2 of the Players.
Consequently, the Masters was pushed all the way back to November.
Instead of blooming azaleas, we got fall colors rarely seen at Augusta National, but it was good to be back.
In unusually soft conditions, Dustin Johnson went on a tear, finishing the tournament at 20 under and slipping on the green jacket with the help of one Tiger Woods.
DJ’s history at the Masters is a mixed bag, but when there’s a win sprinkled in, the rest doesn’t much matter.
