The Masters did not have a cut until its 21st edition in 1957. George Archer, the 1969 champion, made the cut in his final Masters at age 52 and finished in 51st place. Less than an hour after the leaders teed off on Saturday afternoon, thunderstorms caused a delay of nearly three hours. Six players did not finish the third round due to darkness, but the pairing just ahead, Ian Baker-Finch and Jeff Sluman, ran between their shots on the final two holes and completed the round. The three pairings returned early on Sunday morning to complete the round; Couples and Floyd were in the penultimate pairing and had four holes remaining.https://news.google.com/newspapers?id=m1ZWAAAAIBAJ&sjid=oesDAAAAIBAJ&pg=6121%2C2707449 Eugene Register-Guard Oregon Associated Press Green Bob Aussies seize lead as storms batter course April 12, 1992 1E Early in the final round, Mark Calcavecchia shot a record 29 (−7) on the back nine with birdies at 10 and the final six holes; he finished ten strokes back.https://news.google.com/newspapers?id=ebsyAAAAIBAJ&sjid=KfADAAAAIBAJ&pg=2383%2C2998718 Spokesman-Review Spokane, Washington wire reports Ageless Floyd feisty after finishing second April 13, 1992 C2 Davis Love III won the 33rd Par 3 contest on Wednesday with a score of 22.https://news.google.com/newspapers?id=BXw1AAAAIBAJ&sjid=_DIDAAAAIBAJ&pg=6198%2C2402299 Rome News-Tribune Georgia Love claims Par-3 victory Associated Press April 9, 1992 6-B Course Augusta National Golf Club HoleNameYardsPar HoleNameYardsPar1Tea Olive4004 10Camellia48542Pink Dogwood555511White Dogwood45543Flowering Peach360412Golden Bell15534Flowering Crab Apple205313Azalea46555Magnolia435414Chinese Fir40546Juniper180315Firethorn50057Pampas360416Redbud17038Yellow Jasmine535517Nandina40049Carolina Cherry435418Holly4054Out3,46536In3,44036Source:https://news.google.com/newspapers?id=rKFbAAAAIBAJ&sjid=z1ENAAAAIBAJ&pg=2639%2C3906435 Post and Courier Charleston, South Carolina How they played April 11, 1992 4C Total6,90572 Field 1.
