Phil has some of the best stories in golf 🙌 #golf #TheMasters #LIVGolf

I I’ll give you a little Gus of story if I if I may well we got a minute speaking of trees going down I was playing a practice round there one year it was two weeks prior to the tournament probably nobody even knows that this happened but two weeks prior to the tournament I’m playing the 11th hole I’m back uh lining up my t-shot and I see this tree on the left fall over right in the middle of Fairway crash down like right by the group in front of us and um I mean they were probably 100 yards away this massive Georgia Pine comes down rip up the Fairway and so forth so by the time I had walked from my t-shot into the Fairway I could hear on the walkie-talkie get off a two get to 11 get off of four get to 11 and these hundred workers I mean I don’t know how many there there were a number of workers like piling in racing to this tree firing up the the the um uh chainsaws started cutting this thing down so so now the limbs by the time I walk off of 11 Green all the limbs of the tree have been cut off and put on a truck uh on the back of like these uh these carts by the time I got to 15 I looked down they were cutting up the trunk and the tree was being the entire tree was being brought away and uh by the time I got done and get back to AT&T and I look down um made books yeah they’re they’re rotting the Fairway like nobody knew you couldn’t tell two days later this had happened and I just thought like if that was my home course back you know that tree would still be there like three weeks later um and they they had this thing removed like it was one of the most impressive things I had seen like their ability to to handle stuff like that so I’m sure I’m sure the course is going to be great shape
