Well, howdy there! Let me tell you ’bout them golf fellas and their pars at that big Masters shindig in 2023. You know, the one with all them fancy pants and their little white balls?
Now, I ain’t no golf expert, mind you. I’m just a plain ol’ person who likes to watch them fellas swing their sticks on the TV. But I heard folks talkin’ ’bout how many pars they made, and it got me thinkin’.
So, how many pars were there in the 2023 Masters, you ask?
Well, from what I gather, them fellas made a whole heap of pars. I heard tell there were somethin’ like 3,029 pars in that tournament. That’s a lot of pars, ain’t it? More pars than I got chickens in my coop, that’s for sure!
Them golf courses, they ain’t easy, no sirree. Them fellas gotta hit that little ball just right to make a par. And at the Masters, it’s even harder. That course, Augusta National, they say it’s a real tough one. Lots of tricky spots and them greens, they roll faster than a greased piglet.
- The Par 5s: Easy Pickin’s? Now, I heard tell them par 5s, them long holes, they’re supposed to be the easiest. Them young fellas, they strong and can hit that ball a country mile. So, they get on them par 5s and they thinkin’ birdie, but a par ain’t too shabby either.
- Pars Are Your Friend: See, a par, that means you got the ball in the hole in the number of strokes they say you should. Like if it’s a par 4, you get it in there in four hits. If you do it in less, well that’s a birdie, and them fellas like them birdies a whole lot. But a par, that’s solid. That’s like sayin’, “I done my job, and I didn’t mess it up none.”
- Birdies and Bogeys: Of course, them fellas, they ain’t always hittin’ pars. Sometimes they get them birdies, and that’s when they whoopin’ and hollerin’ and high-fivin’. And then there’s them bogeys. That’s when they mess up and take an extra hit. Nobody likes a bogey, no sir. A bogey’s like a skunk in the henhouse – stinks up the whole place.
I reckon makin’ pars at the Masters is a real accomplishment. It means you’re steady, you’re consistent, and you ain’t makin’ too many mistakes. And in golf, that’s what it’s all about, ain’t it? Keepin’ that ball outta the trouble and gettin’ it in the hole in as few whacks as possible.
I tell you what, watchin’ them fellas play golf, it’s kinda like watchin’ a bunch of squirrels tryin’ to bury nuts. They scurryin’ around, pokin’ at things, and sometimes they get it right, and sometimes they don’t. But them Masters fellas, they get it right more often than not. That’s why they’re the best in the world, I reckon.
Now, I ain’t gonna bore you with all them fancy golfin’ terms. I don’t know a divot from a dogleg, and I couldn’t tell you the difference between a putter and a pitching wedge if my life depended on it. But I do know this: them fellas at the Masters, they hit a whole lot of pars in 2023. Over three thousand of ’em, they say.
3,029 pars. That’s a powerful lot of pars, no matter how you slice it. It just goes to show you that even them fancy golf fellas, they gotta play it smart and steady sometimes. Can’t be chasin’ birdies all the time, you know. Sometimes you gotta just take your par and be happy with it.
So, there you have it. A plain ol’ person’s take on the pars at the 2023 Masters. It ain’t fancy, but it’s the truth, as best as I can figure it. And if you ask me, them fellas who made all them pars, they deserve a pat on the back and a big ol’ glass of sweet tea. They done good.
And let me tell you somethin’ else. I hear this fella Scottie Scheffler, he won the Masters in 2024. And you can bet your bottom dollar he made a fair share of pars too. Pars are the backbone of a good golf game, that’s what I say. You gotta have them pars if you wanna win.
They also say in that Professional Golf Association Championship in 2023, the fellas made over 1100 birdies! Can you imagine? Over a thousand birdies. That’s a whole heap of happy fellas right there. But even with all them birdies, you can be sure they made plenty of pars too. Pars are what keeps you in the game. Pars are your bread and butter. Pars keep the score low.
So next time you’re watchin’ them fellas on the TV, pay attention to them pars. They might not be as flashy as them birdies, but they’re just as important. And remember, there were a whole lot of them, 3029, to be exact at that 2023 Masters. That’s a whole lot of steady golfin’!
