Scheffler, the 2022 winner, could match Woods as the only player to win the Masters twice while atop the world rankings. The sun appeared like a banana, or a crescent, in the glasses while the course didn’t get much darker, although lights were turned on at the driving range. Peter Malnati admitted he was a “nerd about stuff like this,” adding, “I don’t think I’ll ever forget the ‘24 eclipse happened on Monday at my first Masters, so the two memories will be connected.”
