By Desi Isaacson| Golf Magazine Verified There are only 17 players in Masters history who have won the tournament more than once, but no one compares to Jack Nicklaus. At least not yet. Nicklaus, The Golden Bear, has won the event six times (1963, 1965, 1966, 1972, 1975, 1986) with a massive 23-year gap between his first and final victory. This comes as no surprise, as Nicklaus also holds the record for most total majors with 18, three more than Tiger Woods.
By Desi Isaacson| Golf Magazine Verified Yes, we know Augusta National Golf Club looks great on TV, but this particular course actually has a pretty interesting backstory, too. How did it start? We thought you’d never ask. Clifford Roberts and Bobby Jones co-founded the club, purchasing the site of Fruitland Nurseries in Augusta, Ga., in 1931. A mutual friend of theirs, Thomas Barrett, Jr., recommended the spot. According to the Masters media guide, Jones was shocked when he first saw the course.
