Masters 2024 live updates: Weather delays opening round at ...

???? Jon Rahm: “I had heard from other players, a few Masters champions and a few that have won other majors. They said there's something different, something special when you win this one and I can confirm it is absolutely true. The jump from no majors to (winning the) US Open was smaller than what it was from the US Open to the Masters.

“It is the biggest tournament in the world, with no offense to anything else. It's probably the most followed by people that don't even play golf. That's what makes the difference, where your notoriety goes up a bit.

“But it's also the tradition, right? By being the only venue, we keep coming back year after year. All the traditions. All the shots. All the stories. They make it so, so special.

“In my case, last year being Seve Ballesteros' birthday, Easter and all the many coincidences to happen on that Sunday, is what made it so special.

“Obviously all the family moments at the end were great but I still have a picture where I'm holding my son and I'm giving a hug to my dad, my son is between us and just to see that moment of me and my dad having my son, it was quite special. That's why I say it's hard to put it into words; I really can't describe it.”
