Masters week is full of traditions that are truly unlike any other. There’s the Par 3 Contest on Wednesday and the Champions Dinner on Tuesday night. On Monday, the golfers get to have a little fun while playing their practice round, especially on the 16th hole.
Over the years, golfers coming to the par 3 16th on the Monday of Masters week will have a little fun and try and skip their ball across the water and on to the green. Thanks to the Masters twitter account, we got to see some of the world’s best take a crack at it.
