Taylor Moore made his Masters debut last year after earning his maiden PGA Tour title at the Valspar Championship.
He’s back this week to defend his title at Innisbrook and he’s already booked a trip to Augusta National in a few weeks, courtesy making last year’s Tour Championship.
The Masters is a tournament in which players benefit greatly from experience and Moore will get a chance to apply what he’s learned. He already got in a couple of practice rounds ahead of Bay Hill and he told media on Tuesday at the Valspar that he’s trying to do his best to treat majors and signature events like regular tournaments.
But if there is any institutional knowledge Moore gleaned from his first Masters it’s this: “I’m going to avoid that tournament shop. That thing is madness there. Everybody is trying to get the gnome and hoodies and all kinds of stuff. That thing is crazy.”
Live and learn.
“I think we spent quite a bit,” Moore said. “Which, first time there, you got to take care of your friends and family, for sure, but we spent quite a bit in that shop.”
Fortunately for Moore, he tied for 39th a year ago and earned $79,200.
