Alright, so you wanna know how many pars them fellas made at the Masters in 2023, huh? Well, let me tell ya, it’s a whole bunch! I ain’t no fancy golf expert or nothin’, but I can sure tell ya what I heard and what makes sense.
First off, them fellas, they played a lot of holes. I heard somethin’ about 93 players hittin’ the ball, and they played, I dunno, maybe four rounds or somethin’ like that. Each round, that’s 18 holes, see? So that’s a lot of chances to make a par.
Now, what’s a par anyway? It’s just hittin’ the ball the right number of times on a hole, ain’t it? Not too many, not too few. Just right. Like makin’ biscuits, you want ’em just right, not burnt and not raw.
So, them fellas, they were aimin’ for par on every hole. But them courses, they ain’t easy, no sir. Hills and water and sand and all sorts of trouble. But still, they managed to make a whole heap of pars.
I heard tell that they made somethin’ like over 3000 pars in 2023! That’s a whole lotta pars! Can you imagine? 3029 of ‘em! That’s what I heard, anyway. Thirty hundred and twenty-nine! That’s more than the chickens I got in the coop, that’s for sure.
- Think of it like this, each fella is tryin’ their best to hit that little ball just so.
- And sometimes they do, and sometimes they don’t.
- But when they do hit it just so, that’s a par.
They said somethin’ about 5004 possible pars if everyone played all the rounds and every hole perfect. But that never happens, does it? Someone’s always messin’ up somewhere, hittin’ it in the water or the sand or somethin’. It ain’t easy, golf ain’t easy, just like life ain’t easy.
And then there’s this talk about the “cut.” Seems like after two days, they get rid of some of the players. Only the best ones get to keep playin’ on the weekend. So, there’s fewer fellas playin’ on Saturday and Sunday, which means fewer chances for pars then.
I also heard tell that last year, the average score was somethin’ like 73 and a half. Now, I don’t know what par is for the whole course, but 73 sounds like a whole lotta hittin’ to me. They must be missin’ some pars here and there, I reckon.
You know, it’s kinda like pickin’ berries. You go out there, and you hope to fill your bucket, right? That’s like makin’ par on every hole. But sometimes you find a good patch, and sometimes you don’t. Sometimes you drop some berries. It’s all the same.
Anyways, they keep track of all these pars and scores and all sorts of things on somethin’ called a leaderboard. It’s like a big ol’ scoreboard, but fancier. Shows you who’s doin’ good and who’s not. It tells you who’s winning and how much money they’re making. That’s important, I guess, for them fellas.
So, back to your question, how many pars? Like I said, over 3000 of ‘em in 2023. 3029, to be exact, accordin’ to what I heard. That’s a powerful lot of pars, if you ask me. They musta been hittin’ that little ball pretty good some of the time. And then they did it again in 2024, even more pars then! 3202 pars they made in 2024! Them fellas are gettin’ better at hittin’ that ball, I reckon.
And that Scottie Scheffler fella, he won it all in 2024. Musta made a whole heap of pars himself, that one. He must be real good at hittin’ that ball. I bet he could hit a squirrel out of a tree if he wanted to, not that he would, of course. They’re nice fellas, them golfers, mostly.
So there you have it. Over 3000 pars in 2023 at that Masters thing. A whole lot of hittin’ that little ball just right. And that’s all I know about that, so don’t ask me no more hard questions now. I gotta go feed them chickens.
