AUGUSTA, Ga. — Abraham Ancer played in his first Masters this week, and he will take plenty of memories home with him to San Antonio, where his invitation is framed on his living room wall: the smell of the bermudagrass, the whistle of the wind on No. 12, the feeling of the butterflies in his stomach as he played in the final group of the final round of the tournament.
But the sight he saw most often on Sunday was Dustin Johnson’s back, as the eventual winner strode past Ancer to locate his ball.
Johnson blasted 13 of his 14 tee shots past Ancer’s and outdrove him by an average of 37 yards.
