Okay, so the other day, I was just messing around, killing time, and I got this random thought: How many pars were made in that 2022 Masters golf tournament? You know, the one where all those pro golfers whack the ball around that super fancy course?
I started poking around, looking for some info on this. I figured, someone out there must track this kind of stuff, right? It’s like, a thing that golf fans and those number-crunching analysts probably care about. So I went down the rabbit hole.
First, I just did a general search, typing in “number of pars made in 2022 Masters” into the search bar. I clicked on a few of the results, just skimming through them. Most of them were these super formal articles, full of fancy golf terms. I just wanted the basic info, plain and simple.
Then I found this one page that had a simple breakdown. It wasn’t all cluttered with ads or anything. It just said straight up that during the 2022 Masters, the players made a “total of 1” pars. Can you believe it? Just one! I was surprised. I had expected a much bigger number.
I kept digging a little more. I found out that only nine players finished the whole tournament under par. That means most of them were taking more than the standard number of strokes on each hole. The winner, some guy named Scottie Scheffler, was obviously one of those nine. There were a few other names I sort of recognized, like Rory McIlroy and Cameron Smith.
My Notes
- Searched online for “number of pars made in 2022 Masters”.
- Found a page with a clear answer: 1.
- Discovered only nine players finished under par.
- Scottie Scheffler won and was under par.
- Rory McIlroy and Cameron Smith were also under par.
It was a fun little exercise, just satisfying my random curiosity. I didn’t spend a ton of time on it, but it was cool to learn a bit more about that tournament.
