As the season’s first Major tees off, we look back at some of the great shots that will forever by synonymous with the Masters.

1. This is not where you want to be on Augusta’s 10th hole. Especially not if it’s a playoff with the green jacket on the line.

3. A safe bet would be to play sideways and try to get down in two for a par — but this is Bubba’s ball, Bubba’s rules.
4. Just hook it around the tree and onto the green. Simples.
5. Wait, where’s it gone?
6. Woah, that’s close.
7. How did he manage that?
8. That deserves a pat on the back at the very least.
What happened next? Watson missed his birdie putt but with Oosthuizen failing to make par, he was left with a short one back to win the Masters. There were tears.
