Question 2

"If you hit it long and straight and throw it up in the air high and putt well, you'll do well here."A) Arnold PalmerB) Tiger WoodsC) Jack NicklausD) Fred Couples

Answer: Jack Nicklaus

I suppose it's better analysis than, "If you hit it short and wild and low and don't putt well, you'll struggle here."

Question 3

"You win all the Tucsons, all the Kemps, all the Iron City Opens--you can, nobody remembers. You win a Masters, nobody ever forgets."A) Ben CrenshawB) Nick FaldoC) Doug FordD) Bob Goalby

Answer: Bob Goalby

Ironically, Goalby's 1968 victory is often lost in history, as that year is best remembered for Roberto DeVicenzo signing an incorrect scorecard, giving Goalby the green jacket.

Question 4

"Something mystical happens to every writer who goes to the Masters for the first time, some sort of emotional experience that results in a search party having to be sent out to recover his typewriter from a clump of azaleas."A) Peter AllissB) Herbert Warren WindC) Dan JenkinsD) Jim Murray

Answer: Dan Jenkins

The 2016 tournament will mark Jenkins' 66th Masters.

Answer: Chi Chi Rodriguez

Technically, Chi Chi shot a 77. But let's not truth get in the way of a good tidbit.

Question 6

"I've heard the winner of the Masters hosts the dinner. If I ever won it, there would be no suits, no ties and McDonald's."A) John DalyB) Bubba WatsonC) Lee TrevinoD) Roger Maltbie

Answer: John Daly

Long John finished third in the 1993 Masters, but never really came close to winning the green jacket. Probably for the best; Bobby Jones would roll over in his grave if Big Macs were served in the clubhouse.

Question 7

"The Masters, for me, is like holding onto a really big collection of gas for a week. It’s like having my buttocks surgically clenched at Augusta General Hospital on Wednesday, and surgically unclenched on Monday on the way to Hilton Head.”A) Gary McCordB) David FehertyC) Verne LundquistD) Ian Baker-Finch

Answer: David Feherty

Now that the colorful on-course commentator is with NBC Sports, he can feel free to let loose -- literally and figuratively -- during Masters week.

Question 8

"I must admit the name was born of a touch of immodesty."A) Cliff RobertsB) Gene SarazenC) Bobby JonesD) Ben Hogan

Answer: Bobby Jones

Curt Sampson's The Masters details a list of Jones' aversions to the tournament, including his own participation in the early events, as he had been retired for quite some time.

Question 10

"I've never been to heaven, and thinking back on my life, I probably won't get a chance to go. I guess winning the Masters is a close as I'm going to get."A) Jimmy DemaretB) Fuzzy ZoellerC) Ian WoosnamD) Tommy Aaron

Photo By: Getty Images

Answer: Fuzzy Zoeller

Zoeller grabbed the 1979 Masters, the last player to win the green jacket in their Augusta National debut. Unfortunately, Zoeller turned in just one other top-10 finish at the Masters. He made his final appearance in 2009.

Question 11

"If you don't get goose bumps when you walk into this place, you don't have a pulse."A) Bing CrosbyB) Steph CurryC) Bob HopeD) Don Sutton

Answer: Don Sutton

Who says you have to be a golfer to appreciate the beauty of Augusta National? Although Sutton, a Hall of Fame pitcher, is an avid player himself and has even served as a broadcaster for the sport.

Question 12

"You've built a bridge for Nelson and a bridge for Hogan and you've put up a plaque for Sarazen. I've won the Masters three times. Don't you think you might put my name on one of those little green outhouses?"A) Nick FaldoB) Jimmy DemaretC) Gary PlayerD) Sam Snead

Photo By: Getty Images

Answer: Jimmy Demaret

Demaret posed the question to Cliff Roberts, a man who notoriously did not appreciate being told what to do. In numerous accounts, Roberts disapproved of Demaret's affinity for the nightlife, explaining why Jimmy D was never honored.

Question 13

"This place always seems to have some kind of a ghost waiting around a pine tree or something for me. I remember all the places I don't want to be."A) Greg NormanB) Ernie ElsC) Ed SneedD) Paul Azinger

Photo By: Augusta National/Getty Images

Answer: Paul Azinger

Zinger has 12 wins on the PGA Tour, including the 1993 PGA Championship. However, this success never translated to Augusta: In 15 events, Azinger has one top-10 showing.

Question 14

"This is where God hangs out."A) Mac O'GradyB) Tom WatsonC) George ArcherD) Brad Faxon

Photo By: Getty Images

Answer: Mac O'Grady

Unfortunately, O'Grady couldn't make Augusta National his regular hang-out spot, never making par in his 10 Masters rounds.

Question 15

"Every shot is within a fraction of disaster -- that's what makes it so great."A) Gary PlayerB) Ben HoganC) Byron NelsonD) Arnold Palmer
