Couples' Masters Meltdown: Quadruple Bogey and Water Woes

Fred Couples faced a difficult stretch during the Masters on Thursday, ultimately finishing his round at six over par. Initially positioned well on the leaderboard, Couples encountered trouble on the par-5 15th hole. His approach shot landed in the water, and a subsequent attempt also found the water, resulting in a quadruple bogey.

The challenges continued for the popular golfer as he proceeded to the par-3 16th hole, where his tee shot went into the water, leading to a double bogey. He bogeyed the par-4 17th as well, completing a tough sequence of holes. Despite the setbacks, Couples maintained a lighthearted attitude, expressing his enjoyment of playing alongside younger competitors and looking forward to improving his score on Friday.
