Masters 2021 Preview

The Masters are back and this time the storied major is taking place in April again — just six months after the rescheduled 2020 event in November. The course is expected to play much different than it did last time out, when Dustin Johnson captured the green jacket with a 20-under total, breaking the scoring record previously held by Tiger Woods.

“I played it two weeks ago, and the course is in immaculate condition,” Johnson said last week. “It looks like it’s shaping up to be a normal Masters, and so I’m really looking forward to that.

“It’s definitely not going to be as soft as it was,” he added. “So you know, you just have to be able to land the ball in different spots. November, the greens were soft, so you could be a lot more aggressive with longer clubs because they would stop and then hold the green. I would imagine it’s going to be pretty firm and fast, especially if they have good weather.”

Veterans golfers agreed, including Fred Couples, who is playing in his 36th Masters.

“If it stays dry, it’ll be as difficult as the course has played in a long, long time, and that’s what I think we need to have,’’ Fred Couples, who is playing in his 36th Masters, said.

Phil Mickelson — a three-time Masters champion — had a similar sentiment.

“With firm greens, this golf course needs to be respected, and I think it’s been a long time since it’s had to be respected,” Mickelson said. “I would say for the last decade, the greens here are in the top 25 percent of softest we play on Tour, and the golf course’s only defense is the greens. So, when the greens are firm, the precision, the course management, the angles, the leave where the ball is left, all of this stuff becomes incredibly important in your ability to play this course effectively.”
