All "3's" on the Par 3's

All "3's" on the Par 3's

While for most of us, a card of 3’s on the Par 3’s might not mean a Master’s victory, we bet it’ll mean you've had some fun. Trouble is, for many of you, it’s going wrong before it starts. Which is exactly what Spieth confessed about his effort at the 12th at the Masters. While his error was shot selection and strategy, too often yours is in the way the ball is teed up.
