There were some stunning moments at The Masters, from Bryson DeChambeau’s hole-out birdie to keep his dreams of the title alive to Scottie Scheffler’s dominant performance over the back nine on Sunday to claim the title for the second time in three years.
Among some of the top-quality action on the course, though, some other moments really got social media talking. Here are six of the incidents that went viral at the Augusta National Major.

The main action hadn’t even got underway when one of the game’s most controversial figures of recent years, LIV Golf CEO Greg Norman, appeared on Wednesday during the Par 3 Contest, and was seen mingling with patrons and players including PGA Tour pro Min Woo Lee.
He also attended during the tournament, but how did he get in? Did he receive an invite after saying he was “disappointed” that he hadn’t been asked to attend the year before?
Apparently not, according to the Australian’s son Greg Norman Jr, who explained on X that his father had acquired a ticket on the secondary market.
Regardless, Norman seemed to have a great time and, in an Instagram message, thanked “hundreds if not thousands” of patrons for their “unanimous support.”
Jason Day’s Malbon Outfits
Norman wasn’t the only Australian causing a stir at The Masters. Jason Day also got people talking, this time because of his choice of outfits.
First, it was Day’s Malbon pants that gave social media a field day. Their bagginess led to comments, including one that from social media personality Amanda Rose, who wrote, “Jason Day holds a unique distinction of being the only man in the field at The Masters who could jump out of the plane today and land safely.”
