Well, there had to be one person out there who approved of the Masters setup. I just never would have thought it would be Alice Dye - one of the kindest souls you’ll ever meet. Who knew she had such a deviant side?

Perhaps it’s just coincidence that Dye’s wife, Alice, last week sent a congratulatory note to Billy Payne, the freshman chair of Augusta National GC. In the letter, Alice included a quotation from Gene Sarazen that she had found in an old issue of Golf World. Wrote the Squire: “When the greens are soft, anyone can play. If they’re hard, the cream rises to the top.”

“I don’t know where she finds these things,” Pete said, laughing. “It sure sounds about right, though. I built [Sawgrass] to be firm and fast, which is how it played at the start.”
