GAINESVILLE, Fla. – A tradition like no other. Camillo Villegas returned to The Masters for the first time since 2015 and walked away with his second best finish at the tournament.

The Masters

Camillo Villegas finished T-35 at Augusta National this weekend in the 20-year pro’s seventh start at The Masters.

Villegas excels on Maters Sunday and this year was no different as he tied his lowest round score with a 69. Villegas’s last 69 in a round at the Masters came on Sunday in 2009. The former Gator notched seven birdies  and tied his best three hole stretch with birdies on 16, 17 and 18 to end the tournament.
