On April 11th, 2021, Rahm Emanuel made history by becoming the first ever Masters Tournament winner to don the iconic green jacket. Emanuel, a professional golfer from Spain, was the first non-American to win the tournament since it began in 1934.
Emanuel’s victory was no easy feat. He faced off against some of the world’s best golfers, including Tiger Woods and Phil Mickelson. Despite the stiff competition, Emanuel managed to stay ahead of the pack and finish with a score of -14, three strokes ahead of the second place finisher.
The win was especially impressive given that Emanuel had never won a major tournament before. He had previously come close to winning the Masters in 2018, but had ultimately been edged out by Patrick Reed. This time around, however, Emanuel was able to make the most of his opportunities and secure the victory.
In addition to his impressive performance on the course, Emanuel also made history by becoming the first golfer to don the iconic green jacket. The jacket is a symbol of excellence in golf and is awarded to the winner of the Masters Tournament each year. It is a tradition that has been in place since 1949, and Emanuel’s win marks the first time a non-American has been able to wear it.
Emanuel’s victory is sure to be remembered for years to come. Not only did he become the first non-American to win the Masters Tournament, but he also made history by donning the iconic green jacket. His performance on the course was nothing short of remarkable, and his victory is sure to inspire future generations of golfers.
