Gary Player Completes His 51st Masters

[I Heart Gambling Online]

He didn't break his age (72) in either of the first two rounds of the 2008 Masters, but Gary Player acquitted himself just fine. The South African golfing legend, wearing all white on Friday, broke the record that he held with Arnold Palmer for most Masters played and finished +17 in the process.

Player might have ended up last on the leaderboard in his 51st Masters, but that didn't stop the patrons from cheering his every move, especially when the he saved par out of the sand on the 18th.

"Well, it's a thrill," Player said yesterday. "It's a thrill now to know that I hold the record. Of course, all records are made to be broken, aren't they?"

Incidentally, oddsmakers had formulated an over/under of +23.5 as the highest score by a player missing the cut.

Looks like the under will take that wager, one of the many Masters props in the Bodog Sportsbook.
