It appears Tiger Woods will remain the last player to win back to back green jackets (2001-02), as reigning Masters champion Sergio Garcia shot a first-round 9-over par 81 and sits 17 shots off the lead of Jordan Spieth (-6).

Garica’s ugly opening-round scorecard was due primarily to an 8-over par 13 on the par-5 15th hole.

Garcia dumped five (yes, five!) balls into the water en route to tying the highest score on any hole in Masters history. The last time Garcia played No. 15 he shot a eagle 3 on his way to his first green jacket.
