Masters Tournament Records: Greatest Achievements at Augusta National

The Masters isn’t just any golf tournament – it’s where legends are made, and these incredible records prove it.

Tiger Woods didn’t just win at Augusta in 1997 – he completely demolished the field. At just 21 years old, he won by an amazing 12 shots, still the biggest victory margin in Masters history.

But here’s what’s even more impressive: Tiger’s made the cut 24 straight times at Augusta National. Through injuries, comebacks, and everything in between, he’s never missed a weekend there.

The great Jack Nicklaus, though, still holds the crown as the Masters king. Six Green Jackets – nobody’s even come close to touching that record. And get this: he made the cut 37 times at Augusta. His last win in 1986? He was 46 years old.

Gary Player loved Augusta so much he just kept coming back. The South African legend teed it up 52 times at the Masters – more than anyone else in history.

Speaking of showing up, Arnold Palmer’s streak is mind-blowing. From 1955 to 2004, Arnie played in 50 straight Masters tournaments. Half a century of competing at golf’s most prestigious event.

The scoring record? That belongs to Dustin Johnson. DJ shot an incredible 268 (20-under par) when he won in 2020. Sure, it was during that unusual November Masters when the course was softer, but 20-under is still 20-under.

Here’s a quick look at the most jaw-dropping Masters records:
– Most wins: Jack Nicklaus (6)
– Most appearances: Gary Player (52)
– Youngest winner: Tiger Woods (21 years, 104 days)
– Biggest win margin: Tiger Woods (12 shots)
– Lowest score: Dustin Johnson (268)

These aren’t just numbers – they’re proof of what makes the Masters special. It’s where golf’s greatest players have written their names into history, one amazing performance at a time.

Which record stands out as the most impressive? That’s up for debate. But one thing’s for sure – breaking any of these marks won’t be easy.
