Nico Echavarria claimed a play-off win at the Masters Par-3 competition in Augusta National, as Rory Mcilroy and Scottie Scheffler presented before the main opening of the year.
Echavarria and JJ Spaun recorded five birds each in their 22s without Bogey to end up at the top of the manager’s table on the annual event Wednesday, with both players who then exchanged pars in the first additional play-off hole.
The players went back to the ninth hole for the third time, where Echavarria fired his three -legged goal and made a winning bird like Spaun – who lost a play -off to Mcilroy in the players last month – had to choose for the second after a closing trick.
Echavarria-making his national debut in Augusta-now seeking to become the first player to win the Par-3 competition and masters in the same week, while three players fired holes in a memorable competition.
“It feels great,” Echavarria said. “We hope to change the tradition! We’ll see about it, but we’ve had an explosion there. It feels extraordinary.”
