There’s a ton of pushback online and X about all of this. Will be interesting to see if ANGC keeps moving forward with this or if there are still some traditionalists there who want to dial this bullshite back.

Fred Ridley just said he regretted doing the Dude Perfect thing, then allows this crap. Makes no sense.

He’s part of the problem then. They’ve done too much to lift the veil and take away the mystique since he’s been chairman.

I haven’t read the whole thread but has Marty Smith been mentioned. I feel like this is a NASCAR event now. It used to be so exclusive. I don’t think they should even show the Par 3 tournament. That should be left for the players and patrons. Just show highlights.

From what I've seen there's a board that votes on most things. I'd guess the board has been taken over by people loyal to Tiger, ESPN, etc. That's the only way they'd be able to push this stuff through.

Jason Kelce is getting a lot of blow back.

I’d expect some changes next year, I think they may have given espn some rope and that will be reigned in next year.

And it’s probably unfair to him. I don’t really hate the guy but that shite today was a jumping the shark moment for the Par 3 contest.

Even the Waste Management dialed it back when it started to become a parody of itself. Augusta needs to do the same and I agree, it starts with telling ESPN to settle down.

It’s almost like they’ve tried to turn the par 3 contest into the waste management or a LIV tourney. It doesn’t fit the vibe of Augusta at all.

I’m glad to be the Old Man yelling at the cloud but the Par 3 contest has become one of the clownish events. It could be an amazing sports spectacle but they turn it into the absolute worst version of a hit & giggle.


Agreed. Leave the kids that can’t carry the bag at home.

It’s been getting worse each year. Went from hit & giggle to clownshow.

You think Tiger likes this?

Look at the clown with Dude Perfect… He is the only actual pro pushing this crap while saying it’s to “grow the game “



He also brought a fricking comedian with zero relation to him to Augusta to hit on the damn range today and at the actual par 3
