    • Sam Bennett at The 2023 Masters

    Sam Bennett is a 23-year-old golfer who won the 2022 U.S. Amateur championship. That victory gave him exemptions into the 2023 Masters and 2023 Open Championship, both of which he has never played in before. The Masters will be the second major tournament in which Bennett gets to play. He qualified for the 2022 U.S. Open and made the cut before ult...

    Bennett grew up in Madisonville, Texas and was the youngest of Stacy and Mark Bennett's three sons. He was an active golfer in his youth and eventually turned that skill into a college scholarship at nearby Texas A&M. He had trained at the school's home course, the Traditions Club, from age 13 onward, so it was only natural for him to attend school...

    Bennett has a tattoo on his left forearm that reads, "Don't wait to do something." What is the meaning behind that?

    Round 1

    To say Bennett made an impression at his first Thursday at Augusta would be an understatement.

    Round 2

    Bennett's strong shooting continued into the second day of the Masters. He once again carded a 4-under 68 and rivaled tournament leader Brooks Koepka (5-under) for the best round of the day. Bennett did log his first bogey of the tournament early in his round, but he didn't let that get to him. He was mistake-free the rest of the way and his excellent follow-up put him into sole possession of second place when he came off the course. He is the first amateur to achieve that feat at the Masters...

    Round 3

    Bennett began to drift back to earth in miserable conditions at the start of Round 3 on Saturday. Playing with leaders Brooks Koepka and Jon Rahm, Bennett bogeyed the first two holes, then steadied himself with a series of pars through the sixth before the horn sounded and play ended for the day. He faces a grueling Sunday with 12 holes to complete in the third round, then potentially the entire final round.
