1991 Masters Tournament
The 1991 Masters Tournament was the 55th Masters Tournament held April 11–14 at Augusta National Golf Club in Augusta, Georgia. Ian Woosnam won his only major title, one stroke ahead of runner-up José María Olazábal.
Woosnam, Olazábal, and two-time champion Tom Watson, age 41, were all tied at −11 going into the 72nd hole. Olazábal, a group ahead of the final pairing of Woosnam and Watson, went from fairway bunker to greenside bunker and failed to hole a 45-foot (14 m) par putt. Watson, who had eagled both 13 and 15, missed the fairway right with his tee shot and then hit his second shot into a greenside bunker. He chipped out and three-putted for a double bogey. Woosnam then holed an 8-foot (2.4 m) par putt for the green jacket.
It was the fourth consecutive year that the Masters champion was from the United Kingdom, which had no winners prior to Sandy Lyle's victory in 1988. Through 2026, Woosnam is the only winner at Augusta from Wales. Olazábal later won two Masters, in 1994 and 1999.
Phil Mickelson, a 20-year-old junior at Arizona State, was the low amateur at 290 (+2) and tied for 46th place.
In the fall of 1990, during Tropical Storm Marco, Amen Corner was damaged, especially hole 11 (White Dogwood), which "floated off the golf course" after Rae's Creek overflowed. Also damaged were the Ben Hogan and Byron Nelson Bridges, a retention dam, the scoreboard on the left side of White Dogwood, and a city sewer line. Augusta National rebuilt the greens based on a 1982 survey and photographs, re-paving an abandoned maintenance road to reach the affected area. The repaired holes re-opened to club members in November 1990; the course was fully restored for the 1991 tournament.
