Masters Par 3: Family Fun Across Generations

The Masters Par 3 Contest highlighted family moments, from 91‑year‑old Gary Player to nine‑year‑old Frankie Fleetwood, proving golf’s timeless appeal.

The Par 3 Contest at Augusta National was a generational showcase, with 91‑year‑old Gary Player celebrating a birdie putt while lifting a young fan, and nine‑year‑old Frankie Fleetwood focused on clearing water hazards. The event also featured world number one Scottie Scheffler’s newborn son, Remy, carried through the course.  

Defending champion Rory McIlroy and Englishman Aaron Rai noted how the tournament offers a break from the pressure of the main event, allowing players to enjoy the sport with family in a relaxed setting.
