Before this thread degenerates (if it hasn't already) into another "short hitters can no longer compete at the Masters (or elsewhere)" threads, let us look at the facts.
Tim Clark was the runner-up at this year's Masters. Chris Di Marco was the runner-up as last year's Masters and would have won if his chip shot did not lip out on the 72nd hole.
26 golfers posted the 10 lowest scores at this year's Masters. Among those 26 golfers were Clark, Olazabal, Weir, Jimenez, Mayfair, Oberholser, Verplank, Pampling, O'Hern and Hensby - not exactly members of the "bomb and gouge" crowd.
PGA Tour events were won this year by Toms, Oberholser, Triplett, Donald, Pampling, Maggert, Immelman, Pavin and Durant.
If Justin Leonard (who was in a playoff for the PGA 2 years ago) wants to use his lack of length, strength or physical stature to rationalize his 109th place finish on the PGA Tour money list, he is welcome to do so. He is only kidding himself.
