The first day of the 2024 Masters has come and gone, though the first round isn’t quite over yet.
Four amateurs made their Augusta National Golf Club debut Thursday, and the fifth in the field was making his third start at the Masters. Amateurs are a huge part of the Masters tradition, and the five in the field each had different paths they took during the first round.
Each of the amateurs concluded their first round of play, however, no one is making a run like Sam Bennett did last year. The competition for the Silver Cup remains wide open, though there’s also some work to be done for a couple amateurs to try to make the cut Friday.
