The 1973 Masters Tournament was the 37th Masters Tournament, held April 5–9 at the Augusta National Golf Club. Due to weather delays, the final round was played on Monday for the first time since 1961. Tommy Aaron, age 36, won his only major title, one stroke ahead of runner-up J. C. Snead.〔 Before this win at Augusta, Aaron was best known as the player who kept Roberto DeVicenzo's incorrect scorecard at the Masters five years earlier in 1968. Ironically, Aaron's final round playing partner in 1973, Johnny Miller, recorded a higher score when keeping Aaron's card, and Aaron caught the mistake. This was his third and last victory on the PGA Tour, and after this win, Aaron's best result in a major was a tie for 28th at the Masters in 1979. Gary Player played in 52 Masters from 1957 through 2009;〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://golf.about.com/od/majorchampionships/f/most-masters-played.htm )〕 and missed only this one, to recover from leg and abdominal surgery.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.pgatour.com/news/2007/03/28/masters_player.html )〕 He returned in 1974 to win the second of his three green jackets. Gay Brewer won the fourteenth Par 3 contest on Wednesday with a seven-under 20. At the previous Masters, the 1967 champion was hospitalized in Augusta for ulcers on Wednesday night and missed the tournament. This Masters was the last as competitors for two former champions: Gene Sarazen (1935) and Ralph Guldahl (1939). ==Past champions in the field== 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「1973 Masters Tournament」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
