0:00On April 5th, this year marks some epic anniversaries at the Masters, kicking off with 75 years since Ben Hogan's Gritty win in 1951. He shot 280 total, edging out ski regal by two shots for $3,000 fresh off a near-fatal car crash that made his comeback. 50 years back in 1976, Raymond Floyd cruised wire to wire with a record tying 271 8 shots clear of Ben Crenshaw for $40,000. He birdied or eagled every par 5 through 54 holes, joining an elite club of dominant champs. Jumped to 25 years ago, Tiger Woods sealed his Tiger Slam in 2001 with a 272, two shots ahead of David DuVall and A. Million $8,000 richer. He held all four majors at once after steady play down the stretch. No bogies in the final six holes. 20 years since Phil Mickelson's two-shot victory over Tim Clark in 2006 for $1,260,000 and 10 years from Danny Willett's Shock 3 shot win in 2016 when Jordan's beef imploded on the back 9.

1:115 years ago, Hideki Matsuyama became Japan's first green jacket winner, nipping Will's Allatoris by one shot for $2,000,000. After a bogie free 65 on Saturday, these milestones amp up the hype as Augusta gears up for more history. That's the story for today.
