3 Masters-themed things to watch this weekend while stuck at home
On this would-be Masters weekend, golf fans are surely getting the golf itch. The good news is there are a few Masters-related things you can watch this weekend.
Here are three Masters themed things you can watch this weekend.
2004 Final Round
This was a classic Masters as Phil Mickelson closed with one of the great final-round charges in the history of the event. A closing 31 ensured the lefty of his first green jacket and a place in the history books.
But even better than just watching the final round is watching it with comments from the protagonist himself. In an unprecedented move, CBS Sports invited Mickelson (and Tiger Woods, more on that later) to watch the event alongside Jim Nantz and provide commentary on the round. The action starts at 2:30 p.m. ET on Saturday. You won’t want to miss this.
From practice sessions in the rain as a kid to sinking a putt on 18 to win, @PhilMickelson was gearing up for his moment at Augusta National his entire life.

2019 Final Round
Who can forget the historic final round of last year’s Masters? Tiger making the winning putt with his children on hand to witness was a moment that will be etched in fan’s memories for years to come and is sure to go down as one of the iconic moments in the tournament’s history.
And like his rival Phil Mickelson, Tiger is also joining Jim Nantz to provide his perspective on how things unfolded. Get ready for some unrivaled access into the mind of the champion as he relives one of the most meaningful days in his career. It all begins at 12:30 p.m. ET Sunday.

1995 Masters Final Round
Just days removed from burying his longtime coach Harvey Penick, Ben Crenshaw rose to the occasion to claim his second green jacket. There won’t be any commentary from Gentle Ben on this broadcast, but the final round is surely worth a watch.
And if you’re more in the reading mood, check out this feature on Crenshaw’s triumph from GOLF Senior Writer Alan Shipnuck.
And as an added bonus, you get glimpses of a college-aged Tiger Woods as he claimed low amateur honors that year.
