This Day in Masters Golf--April 7

This is the day Gene Sarazen made: On April 7, 1935, he made a double eagle on the 15th hole, tied Craig Wood for first, then won in a playoff the next day. On April 7, 1998, the Jack Nicklaus plaque was dedicated; it is attached to the drinking fountain between the 16th and 17th holes.
