Tiger Woods, Jack Nicklaus and Arnold Palmer have all managed to conquer Augusta National, each winning The Masters multiple times.
Nicklaus sits top of that specific list with six victories at The Masters, starting in 1963 and ending in 1986.
Woods is just behind him with five titles at Augusta National, while their fellow legend Palmer is third on the list with four.
With Nicklaus and Palmer having both retired, Woods can add another success to his name, but that seems unlikely given his injury struggles.
Tiger Woods ‘wanted to be annoying’ during round with Jack Nicklaus and Arnold Palmer
He did come agonisingly close to victory in 2007, when he was one of three players to lose by two shots to Zach Johnson.
But before the event, the iconic figure shared fantastic insight for US Amateur champion Richie Ramsay, saying: “I think the greatest thing you could possibly do is if you’re lucky enough to play practice rounds with former champions.
“My first year, I played with Seve [Ballesteros] and Ollie [Jose Maria Olazabal]. I had Raymond [Floyd], Freddie [Couples]; and then I played with Arnold [Palmer] and Jack [Nicklaus] on Wednesday.
“Then I played the Par 3 Contest with Arnold and Jack. I made up my mind just to ask a bunch of questions to the point where I wanted to be annoying.
“I just wanted to learn as much as I possibly can from these guys how to play the golf course. Tell you what, they are all right.”

The advice Tiger Woods once offered for the first tee shot at The Masters
The US Amateur champion in question was Richie Ramsay, who went on to miss the cut at Augusta in 2007.
But asked ahead of the week what advice he would have for the Scot stepping onto the first tee on Thursday, Woods said: “Well, don’t do what I did on the first hole. I was playing with Ollie there and I drove it right over the top of the bunker.
“I had a little flip 60-degree sand wedge in there, put it on the green, pin is on the middle left, hit the putt, and next thing you know, people are moving out in the gallery. It’s a great putt. Got my 2-putt; chipped up, made the putt.”
Is Tiger Woods one of the greatest short game players of all-time?
As mentioned, Woods suffered a near miss that year, when he was joined in a tie for second by Retief Goosen and Rory Sabbatini.
He did, however, claim an unforgettable fifth success at Augusta several years later, with Woods winning The Masters in 2019 by a single shot.
