See the Winners!

Hello,

If this newsletter allowed me to send voice recordings, I would include a sweet clip of me belting out ā€œGeorgia, Georgia. The whole day through!ā€

Thatā€™s right baby, Georgia is on my mind. Well, sort of. My favorite things about Georgia (Diet Coke and Chick-fil-A) have nothing to do with the Masters.

Enough about my breakfast. Youā€™re here because you need something to get you in the Georgia state of mind. Today, weā€™ve got our annual ā€œBest of Golf Awardsā€ to kick things off.

But donā€™t stop there. Weā€™ve also got some sweet putter content, a great new episode of NPG and more.

The Best of Golf 2024

Fast, Far and Forgiving

The annual MyGolfSpy Best of Golf awards is perhaps my favorite piece to write each year. It's one of the few times we get to (somewhat) look past the data and analysis to just show off some really cool stuff.

Some of the best golf gear has been kept a secret for too long. That, above all else, is why we created our Best of Golf awards.

In this piece, we highlight some of our favorites, including:

  • On-course snacks

  • Fancy divot tools

  • Custom wedges

This is the Best of Golf for 2024.

FIRST LOOK

Toulon Small Batch Meadow Club Putter

Fancy Like ā€¦

The new Toulon Small Batch Meadow Club putter is the best limited edition putter that Toulon has produced to date.

Itā€™s going to cost you a pretty penny if you want to get your hands on this bad boy. Did I mention itā€™s made from Rolex steel?

Oh, and the story behind the wooden sole plate is quite extraordinary.

How Do Amateur Golfers Fare at Augustaā€™s Famed 12th Hole?

Golden Bell is the iconic 12th hole at Augusta National. Although it typically plays around 155 yards during the Masters, it has rung many playersā€™ bells with its unassuming knockout power.

As with nearly, if not all, the holes at Augusta National, Golden Bell is breathtakingly beautiful, but as those who have played it will attest, its serene looks can be deceiving. Itā€™s an absolute card killer.

We have seen many players chasing the green jacket crash and burn here: Tony Finau, Brooks Koepka, and Francesco Molinari in 2019 ā€“ the same year Tiger Woods would win his fifth Masters.

But even Tiger has been on the receiving end of Golden Bellā€™s ugly side. Following up his fifth win, he carded a 10 on 12 in 2020.

So if the GOAT can run up a high score, how might an average golfer fare against the 12th?

THE MASTERS

Masters Announces Support of Ball Rollback

Augusta National Chairman Fred Ridley made it clear that the Masters supports the USGA and R&A's golf ball rollback plans, which are slated to take effect in 2028 for professionals.

Ridley, speaking during his annual Wednesday press conference on the eve of the Masters, commented on Augusta National's reluctance to continue lengthening the courseā€”which has consistently occurred over the past two decades.
