The Masters Tournament: Tiger Woods throws ball to patron

Geting a ball from Tiger Woods? A dream for many golf fans. At the Masters Tournament 2024, this dream came true for a patron at Augusta National Golf Club, who seized the moment with a creative idea.

Tiger Woods had just finished his practice round when Matt Agonis, standing on the ninth hole, had a thought: “We were sitting there, it was quiet, I looked at him and thought to myself, ‘Why not?’ So I shouted at him ‘Tiger, I’m open’.”

Woods grinned, turned round and threw the ball straight to Agonis, who managed to catch it despite other patrons trying to get in the way.
