Well, I hear you wanna know ’bout how many pars will be made at the Masters. That big fancy golf thing, you know. It’s like countin’ chickens ‘fore they hatch, ain’t it? But I’ll tell ya what I think, just my two cents.
So, this Masters thing, it’s got all them fancy golfers swingin’ their clubs. They say it’s real important, like the county fair’s prize pig competition, but with golf. And they gotta hit that little white ball just right. Too hard, too soft, gotta be just right, like makin’ a good pie crust.
Now, a “par,” that’s what they call it when a golfer gets the ball in the hole in just the right number of hits. Not too many, not too few. Like pickin’ the right amount of apples for a pie, you don’t want too many, don’t want too few. This Masters place, it is a par 72 place.
They got somethin’ called a “Masters” every year. And each time, they got a whole mess of golfers, maybe 90, maybe 100. Like a whole flock of geese, all tryin’ to get to the same pond. And they all tryin’ to make these “pars.”
- Last year, 2023, they said there was over 3000 pars. That is a lot.
- This year, 2024, they said there was 3202 pars. A little bit more.
- That Scottie, he won the thing this year. Good for him.
This golf course, they call it “Augusta National.” Sounds fancy, don’t it? They say it’s one of the hardest ones around. Like tryin’ to plow a field full of rocks, I imagine. And they keep makin’ it longer! Like addin’ rows to your garden when you already got enough to weed. They made the course longer, like 10 yards or somethin’.
So, you wanna know how many pars they’ll make? Well, it’s like guessin’ how many ears of corn you’ll get from your field. You can look at last year, and the year before, and make a guess. But the weather changes, the golfers change, and sometimes them little white balls just got a mind of their own. It is hard to guess.
But they keep track of it, all them pars. Like keepin’ track of how many eggs your hens lay. It’s a big number. Last year, it was 3,029, I hear. A whole lot of golfin’ goin’ on. And these golfers, they from all over. Comin’ to this one place to hit that little ball around. It is like many people tryin’ to be the best.
They even had a fella named Stewart Cink get a hole-in-one in 2022. Can you imagine? Hittin’ that ball just right, one swing, and it goes right in the hole. Like throwin’ a horseshoe and gettin’ a ringer every time. But it ain’t somethin’ that happens every day. They say it’s only happened 34 times in all the years of this Masters thing. I did not see any hole-in-one in 2023, though.
Now, if you was bettin’ on it, you’d want to look at how many pars they made last year. Masters pars are important, you see. And you’d want to think about if it was a rainy year or a sunny year. And if them golfers was feelin’ good or if they had a bad night’s sleep. All that stuff matters, just like it matters when you’re plantin’ your garden. That is like guessin’ how many greens a man will hit on Saturday.
This here 2024 Masters, they finished it up on April 14th. A Sunday, it was. And this fella named Scottie Scheffler, he won the whole thing. Good for him, I say. He must be a pretty good golfer to beat all them other fellas. It’s like winnin’ the blue ribbon at the fair, ain’t it?
So, there you have it. It’s hard to say for sure how many pars will be made at the Masters. But it’s a big number, that’s for sure. A whole lot of golfin’, a whole lot of swingin’, and a whole lot of hopin’ that little white ball goes where it’s supposed to. It ain’t easy, but they sure do make a big fuss over it, don’t they? Just like we make a big fuss over our prize-winnin’ tomatoes, I reckon. It’s all the same, just different things.
This place, it is very hard. They make many pars. That is a lot. Like many chickens in a yard. Many eggs. Many pars. If you want to know how many pars will be made by all the golfers, it is hard to say. But it will be a lot. Like 3000 a lot. Maybe more.
