Patrick Reed won his first major at Augusta and it was on the greens where he dominated.

Best Masters Stats 2018:

• Patrick Reed's putting average of 1.44 was the lowest in the field. It was a decisive factor in him winning his maiden major title.
• Defending Champion, Sergio Garcia, famously racked up the largest score on a single hole ever at The Masters. his 8-over-par 13 on the 15th hole also condemned the Spaniard to the worst ever defence of the green jacket.
• Rickie Fowler's score of -14 would have been good enough to win 75 of the previous 81 masters tournaments
• Charlie Hoffman's ace at the 16th was the 20th on that hole in the tournament's history, and the 9th since 2010
• Paul Casey was the first player to go -6 between the 11th and 15th holes since Constantino Rocca in 1997
• Silver Cup winner Doug Ghim recorded the most eagles (3). He recorded just the 6th eagle at the 18th during The Masters
