The roars returned to the Masters. At least two of them.
There were enough spectators, believed to be roughly 8,000 a day, to at least bring some sound back to the gorgeous scenery of Augusta National in April. And they stood six-deep around the 18th green - masks on - as Hideki Matsuyama walked up the hill to a one-shot victory.
Missing was that head-turning volume, a brief burst of cheers that made spectators look around and try to figure out where it came from and what they were missing elsewhere on the course.
