AUGUSTA, Ga. – Toddlers in miniature white Augusta National jumpsuits. Wives and girlfriends trying to make a putt. Children, grandchildren, nieces and nephews serving as caddies. And plenty of holes-in-one.
After a two-year absence due to COVID-19, the charming Par 3 Contest and all its adorable characters returns this Wednesday beginning at 12 p.m. ET.
The family affair on a course where the holes measure from 70 to 140 yards began in 1960 with three-time Masters champion Sam Snead winning the inaugural contest. Snead also won in 1974 at age 61.
