I had the distinct privilege to play Augusta about three weeks before the 92 Masters. Almost 30 years later, I have always kept the name of the member that allowed me to play that day a secret. All I can say is the 12th green looks like a thimble when you're standing from the tee 165 yards away. I tried for ten years to play the course in my effort to play the 100 Greatest in the country and it was well worth all the letters I sent to Hord Hardin who would write me back saying I wasn't entitled to play such a course. How much I wanted to go up to him that day and say I had achieved my quest, but I had too much respect for the member to take such action.
I sent 112 letters to Hord Hardin and in exchange he sent me 112 rejection letters. He used the same terminology on me too. Said I wasn't entitled to play it nor was I even qualified to be able to be permitted to apply for the tickets because of my repeated abuse of the USPS letter carriers. What a schmo.
“They’ve all arrived, and entered the grounds through the clubhouse. Now you’ve arrived for the final round of the Masters”. Nobody does an intro better than Jim Nantz.
This era of golf in the 90s was the perfect blend of golf equipment technology and golf course design. The need to shape shots, avoid hazards, club selection, and getting on a par 5s in 2 was exciting to watch. Nowadays guys just hit driver-wedge into every hole, and the beauty/challenges of the courses is non existing for the current pros.
In my opinion advancements in technology has been for the worse in many sports. Augusta will always be a challange due to the difficult greens however, which can destroy your score no matter how far you hit the ball. The course and the game as a whole suffers though, even though it is no doubt fun to watch them hit +350 yard drives.
This was the first masters I watched as a teenager and feel in love with golf. Always loved Freddy! Funny seeing Joey on Freddys bag and Steve Williams on Floyd’s
What I’ve always loved about the masters is it feels the same every year. The same music, same commentators basically and the same beautiful golf course. It’s the only tournament I get up early(Aussie) to watch per year. Tiger for 2019
Might I say that a gift is something you haven’t worked for. Freddy definitely worked on his swing. For years, he paused at the top during range sessions to add that lazy look and perfect timing.
It was Freddy and this weekend that started my love of golf and this tournament. I was 12 years old and found myself glued to the tv the entire weekend and to this day it’s my favorite weekend of the year
But it's the cutting-and-pasting of many solo passes-per-song to create the solos for the album tracks that gave rise to his live solos, for the most part.
But was it not the cutting-and--pasting of many solo passes-per-song to construct the solos for the album cuts that gave rise to his live solos for the most part?
This is one of my favorite Masters. I'm a big fan of Couples and was really glad to see him win. He's been a great Champion and continues to be competitive even past 50... 🏌️♂️
Of course we all love seeing Freddie win but can we not forget the amazing charge from the great Ray Floyd? I totally remember watching this Sunday with my dad - I was all about Freddie but dad was all about Ray. The funny to watch the pre-Tiger years and realize how much he changed the game. Thank you, Augusta, for uploading this coverage. It's a delight to watch.
Really enjoying these trips down memory lane and remembering when and why I fell in love with the game. Also giving me my golf fix while the courses are still closed. I wish I could be as chilled as Freddie when I get back out there!⛳🏌️😎
I really miss watching Fred Couples playing golf. He was so smooth and seemingly carefree. Were he a gifted putter, he would have won two or three more Masters and he had his chances at the Open as well. The best shot he hit on the back nine was his approach to 14. Just listen to the ball as it leaves the club. Wow!
Gorgeous swing. How do you swing that slow and bomb it 300 plus? The guy was so talented. He had a great career, but I think he should have won even more.
Freddie made me a ton of money with his win.....was 14 😂😂😂 my older brother put a fiver on for me....his face when he picked up my winnings on the money was fantastic. At 14 it bought me my first set of proper irons.....but Freddie was just my favourite player back then, could watch his swing all day and I was so happy that he won the masters.
Totally agree. Better announcers, Better live shots, better all around live coverage back then. The coverage in the last few years has become so centered on the player swings, that they forgot to cover the action in the field.
A great bit of golf history made available to the public by always first class Augusta National; promoting the game, as is their stated mission. Well done!
14:20 I like how they used to have commentators introduce themselves and describe the back nine. Why did they stop doing that? Now it’s like they’re not that important, they just showing their faces and no talking.
Floyd was Venturi's playing partner in the final round of the 64 Open at Congressional. This is almost three full decades past that memorable event. Amazing.
I always thought it was hole number 13 or 15 where Freddy's ball got hung up. How many great players have we seen lose the Tournament on 12. Spieth, Molinari, Koepka. Freddy got Super Lucky on number 12 at the Masters on Sunday.
I think broadcasts then felt more like theater. There was a real TV drama element to it. Broadcasts today, with high definition and close-ups, feel meant to make you feel like you're there. The goal is realism, and making you feel like there isn't a TV screen between you and the players. Just my two cents.
A segment of this upload is missing. I still have this on vhs tape and the live telecast showed Parry's tee shot after Freds, Parry's fairway wood second, & Fred's second with a hooked 7 iron around the trees from 185 yards, with Ben Wright's commentary the icing on the cake.
Has there ever been a swing with the silky smooth rhythm of Freddie Couples? The only ones that come to mind is Ernie Els and more recently, Louis Oosthuizen. The one thing that amazes me is I thought Freddie was going to be penalised for lifting that other ball out of Rae’s Creek at No 12. I never knew that you were allowed to do that, especially as he had not yet completed play on the hole.
Interesting. It struck my mind too. Definitely testing conditions, golf definitely doesn’t need more stupid penalties, but I’d be surprised if that wasn’t one by the book.
That is a mystery, for sure. Greg Norman was oozing with talent. He was the best golfer in the world for a long, long time and was always near the top of the leaderboard in most every tournament he played in. An underachiever, for sure, in the majors, but it’s hard to feel too bad for him. Two Open wins is a serious accomplishment!
worst broadcast of these Masters final rounds. They just show Floyd and Baker Finch waiting and waiting when Couples is playing. Where was Freds second shot on 15th? Where was his third shot? Bad.
What's crazy is how Ray Floyd was Ken Venturi's playing partner during the 1964 US Open at Congressional CC and here he is competing at the highest level decades into the future.
He would have won had he not had to get up at 6am and play the rest of his third round. That took a lot out of him. Watch him at 9 walking up the to the green, he was already out of gas. His back nine cost him the championship and you could see he barely had anything left in his swing.
That 3 from off the green on 14, is one of the greatest all-time at Augusta. In 76 he had a Nicklaus/Woods- esque win, lapping the field. If I'm not mistaken, those 3 having the biggest margins of victory in the tournament's nearly 90 year history.
1992 - Along with Fred at years end Larry Mize, Bob Tway, Tom Kite, Nick Price, Mark Calcavecchia, Wayne Grady, & Ian Baker-Finch had won as many majors as Norman.
Craig Parry’s set up, backswing, transition, and move through the zone remind me of Peter Jacobsen. Not nearly as tall as Jacobsen, and a bit stockier, but it’s almost a carbon copy otherwise. Check out his second shot on #11 at 1:17:16. For a moment or two I though I was seeing a shrunken Jacobsen.
If I recall correctly, Nantz and Couples went to college together (University of Houston) and were very close friends. This was the culmination of a prediction Nantz and several schoolmates had made a decade previous - that one day, Fred Couples would win a green jacket. It was a very emotional time for both of those old friends.
In '92, we all thought this would be the first of many majors for Fred. Alas, his balky back did not allow for him to realize his amazing potential. That and the arrival of Tiger and Phil a few years later probably didn't help either.
A great stat at the end. From 1986 to 1991 the Masters was won by no more than one shot. In recent majors 3 out of the last 4 have been won by 5 or 6 shots.
McCord too...I think this was his last broadcast from Augusta after the bikini wax comment...so much for individuality! I miss McCord and Feherty...Freddy was and is the man...haters bring up his hof induction as a farce, but he deserves it. Just his swing is worthy. Greatest swing. Bar none. EVER. (Imo) If there is a Masters this year, I'm still putting 20 on him.
I was glad they canned McCord from Augusta. The Masters has a rich broadcast history of people like Henry Longhurst and Ben Wright. No room for McCord's smart alec schtick. McCord has his place at regular tour events, not at Augusta.

Fred Couples has one of the smoothest swings. He and Payne Stewart, so smooth, with plenty of power.
Yeah he’s the king of tempo. Swing hasent changed for 20 years. No reason to change it

I believe technology and athleticism have allowed the courses to be overpowered
@@melissamessmer6544 The difference in physique is unreal. Guys today also seem to have much more athletic and technically advanced swings.

It's the golf course setup
If you introduce OB right next to the fairway they'll think twice about piping those long drives
Totally agree with this, power has overtaken skill now

Except of course this year they were minus Bob Murphy and Steve Melynk and added Peter Kostis and Bobby Clampett.
Amen, brother
There's nothing better than re-watching Freddy win the masters back in my senior year of high school. Especially when I'm supposed to be working.
I watched this live on TV and never saw it again until now, wow! Thank you for posting these!
How can you not like Fred Couples he is such a gentleman and he definitely had a gift, his smooth golf 🏌️♂️ swing.
Might I say that a gift is something you haven’t worked for. Freddy definitely worked on his swing. For years, he paused at the top during range sessions to add that lazy look and perfect timing.
I think what makes Freddie swing look so effortless is the efficiency of motion of his body. some shots looks like he barely moves.
It was Freddy and this weekend that started my love of golf and this tournament. I was 12 years old and found myself glued to the tv the entire weekend and to this day it’s my favorite weekend of the year
The effortless swing and cool demeanor of a champion, thank you for the memories Freddie, you are a legend.
He was more fidgety than I remember. He disguised it well.
So grateful to whoever is uploading these videos!! Thank you.
Who disliked this vid? Unbelievable. Beauty and history.
Freddie will always be "da man" to me.

that's the kind of commentary that we need more often,
objective and straight FACTS only.
What an incredible moment for Freddy and Jim. Dreams came true that day...

He shot 60 on Champions Tour just a few months ago, 12 birdies, 6 pars. Freddie came to play.
Dang, his iron shots have such a cool sound at impact!
1:30:53 haha! That’s a classic! He scooped up another ball from Rae’s Creek and tested the rollback.
01:56:12. That sound.
The kid grabbing Craig Parry’s club at 59:05 🤣

Was the best years for golf early to mid 90s
Fred boom boom couples. His swing was a thing of beauty. Compared to my chopping down a tree. When he used persimmon woods, it was tremendous.
Still is
Strange in 1992 they had better coverage with better camera angles and better graphics
Totally agree. Better announcers, Better live shots, better all around live coverage back then. The coverage in the last few years has become so centered on the player swings, that they forgot to cover the action in the field.
I miss when golf was presented like this so special
52:00 mark is what I've always loved about Freddie Couples , his swing is so nonchalant and his game is just a stroll through the park.
all that showed was a missed put
These are in such great shape they look great even on a huge modern tv i wish we could get all the rounds done in this manner of restoration
A great bit of golf history made available to the public by always first class Augusta National; promoting the game, as is their stated mission. Well done!
Well masters....is not exactly promoting the game...
Love these final round up loads!
1:25:30 is when Fred goes into his pre-shot routine to hit "the shot" on 12 if you're looking for it.
Thank you
Totally awesome
Nobody wears golf visors anymore.
@@jameshoran8 Bubba is still a hold-out.
@@Ryglado I think Poulter still wears a visor.
No one ever remembers the injustice that was done to Parry that day. CBS didn't even bother to report it. Everyone was too busy cheering for Freddie.
Australians never forget. Imagine being in contention for the Masters and getting heckled by the pro Freddy crowd. Disgusting.
Typical ultra sour yanks. (& I'm American)
Who else is here after falling asleep to golf videos
Every time.
Those were the days. My brother and I both bought Lynx Parallax irons cause Freddie and Ernie Els played them at the time.
Still to this day the best irons I have ever had the pleasure to hit. Why did I trade in for cobras 🤔
@@par4mrl71 Get out of town! I traded my Parallax irons in 2009 on a set of new Cobra S2 irons. More distance, but zero feel on short game shots.
I got the black cat tour irons, played my best ever golf with them. Those were the days!⛳🏌️💪🏼
'BECAUSE' ... ' _cause_ means something different entirely

Floyd is just one of the best competitors of all time. Such passion and determination. One of my favorites to watch always. Freddie too!
What might have been for Fred Couples. Such a great player and such a bad back.
14:20 I like how they used to have commentators introduce themselves and describe the back nine. Why did they stop doing that? Now it’s like they’re not that important, they just showing their faces and no talking.
because it took time away from the play but I wish they would do it again as well 🤗🎉💯💚
I've never realized how close Floyd was to winning this with a couple of putts, his 5 iron on 15 was amazing
Floyd was Venturi's playing partner in the final round of the 64 Open at Congressional. This is almost three full decades past that memorable event. Amazing.
Raymond Floyd was a stud! A fierce competitor and dangerous near the lead and unbeatable with the lead.
@@quantumpotential7639Unreal how long he played well. I think he won a warmup tournament before this Masters if I remember correctly. Doral maybe?
And if Fred’s shot was wet on 12. He probably would’ve won.
@tylermorro6663 one of the most uneventful major wins but Fred got a major and definitely should have won more.
I love Fred’s reaction he didn’t scream or yell. He just putted and was like ok I won, can I go home now
Still blows my mind that Fred Couples only won one major. By how long and successful of a career he had, I would have thought he'd have 3-5 at least.
Can't wait to see The Masters this Fall. 2020.
I had forgotten that Steveeeeeeee Williams was Floyd's caddie.
Fred Couples wins his first major and gets interviewed by his old college buddy Jim Nantz
Would have loved to see him win more. He's my fave.
A green jacket isn't too bad tho!
In the history of the masters, not one ball stuck on the bank of the 12th, until Freddie pulled it off in 1992 👍
I feel like I come back to watch this just for "the shot". 30 years ago...
Can you believe this was 30 years ago?
A lucky break on 12 but Fred plotted his way around the Golf Course superbly and deserved to win.
I always thought it was hole number 13 or 15 where Freddy's ball got hung up. How many great players have we seen lose the Tournament on 12. Spieth, Molinari, Koepka. Freddy got Super Lucky on number 12 at the Masters on Sunday.

The goal is realism, and making you feel like there isn't a TV screen between you and the players. Just my two cents.
Agreed. Pat and Ken brought a lot to it as well. Its not the same anymore. Wimbledon either. Both were classics and broadcasted so well.
I'm British but I was cheering Freddie back then, just loved the way he played, so graceful and laid back.
how the fck is 1992 30 years ago... its mind blowing
Well 1992 + 10 years would be 2002.
2002 + 10 years would be 2012.
2012 + 10 years... you can see where this is going, right?
Nantz trying to make Fred cry bringing up the University of Houston days was fantastic.
When shot shaping was king
How did CBS miss Fred's second shot on #15?
A segment of this upload is missing. I still have this on vhs tape and the live telecast showed Parry's tee shot after Freds, Parry's fairway wood second, & Fred's second with a hooked 7 iron around the trees from 185 yards, with Ben Wright's commentary the icing on the cake.

Got to see way more of Augusta with this coverage.... more walking cameras and less reliance on towers and fixed cameras I suppose.

worst broadcast of these Masters final rounds. They just show Floyd and Baker Finch waiting and waiting when Couples is playing. Where was Freds second shot on 15th? Where was his third shot? Bad.
First time in my life I had heard of golf! I was a baby!
Shows how hard it truly is to win a Major Championship. A great player like Fred Couples only won 1
Craig Parry also played in the infamous final pairing with Jean Van De Velde at Carnoustie in 99 and didn't fair much better there.
What's crazy is how Ray Floyd was Ken Venturi's playing partner during the 1964 US Open at Congressional CC and here he is competing at the highest level decades into the future.
Floyd and Snead are the only players to win in 4 different decades
How solid was Ray Floyd. At 50 ish this guy. So solid
He would have won had he not had to get up at 6am and play the rest of his third round. That took a lot out of him. Watch him at 9 walking up the to the green, he was already out of gas. His back nine cost him the championship and you could see he barely had anything left in his swing.

Great the way the commentator says Stuart Williams from NZ on Ray Floyds bag. Steve Williams.
was Fred Couples using a wood driver? i was not aware clubs like that were being used within my life time
I notice the pin placement on 18 was different back then. Must’ve changed just a few years later at most.

Boom Boom 92!
Years ago I heard a story that Couples started to cry right there in the Butler Cabin after the TV stopped filming.
If I recall correctly, Nantz and Couples went to college together (University of Houston) and were very close friends. This was the culmination of a prediction Nantz and several schoolmates had made a decade previous - that one day, Fred Couples would win a green jacket. It was a very emotional time for both of those old friends.
robste they were roommates and nantz walked onto the team
Fred's wife Debra looked 10 years older than Fred in this video. I wonder if she conned him just like John Daly's first wife did.
In '92, we all thought this would be the first of many majors for Fred. Alas, his balky back did not allow for him to realize his amazing potential. That and the arrival of Tiger and Phil a few years later probably didn't help either.
Where's the shot tracer and the guy who yells after a teeshot?
Ken Venturi disparages John Daly in comparing him with Couples, but Daly would out-major Couples 2 to 1.
Daly, with discipline, would have won 5+ Majors...an incredible talent.
