Mickelson is a living golf legend. He won six Grand Slam tournaments in his career. Recently, however, it has aroused a lot of controversy. He became involved in the organization of the LIV golf league, which is supported by investors from Saudi Arabia. Mickelson has been excluded from the American PGA Tour series, so he can basically only perform in the so-called. majors. Masters is one of four such events, the most valued of them.
Before the final, fourth round of the tournament at the famous course in Augusta, Georgia, there was little indication that the veteran could end up so high. He started Sunday with an average score of -1 in the third ten, but he played brilliantly that day. He finished with a score of -8, which means that he needed eight strokes less than the norm to cover 72 holes.
The same result was achieved by his two decades younger compatriot Brooks Koepka, who led after three rounds, but presented himself poorly in the end. Rahm won with a score of -12, which is a very large advantage over the most dangerous opponents. As a reward, he received the famous green jacket. This is his second majors success after winning the US Open in 2021.
A golfer from Poland took part in the Masters for the first time in his career. Meronk started decently in the first round, but then played checkered and the second was decidedly weaker. Ultimately, he did not pass cut before the third round. He ranked +5 after two rounds in 60th place.
In addition to the Masters and the US Open, men’s golf Grand Slam tournaments also include The Open in Great Britain and the PGA Championship in the USA. Meronk has not yet played only in the latter.
