Angel Burley knew from the player's pass on the windshield that a golfer was coming to her drive-through window at Krispy Kreme Doughnuts on Washington Road. It wasn't until she saw the green jacket that she realized who he was.

Great story. Thanks for posting. My daughter goes to college in Augusta—I can picture the KK on Washington Road!
Cool!
Next stop, Wendy’s!
I heard the Green Jackets stay in your locker at Augusta.
What? There is a Krispy Kreme still open? They all shut down where I am.
made many a stop at that Krispy Kreme, just off Interstate 20, going south on Washington Road...one of the busiest in the south, I believe.....cool pic
Bummer,, ain’t nothing like a fresh doughnut with nothing or 1000 calories on it.
Yup. I think they return them after the year and it is hung up so when the player returns to play. At events when they return they can wear them.
The guys on one of the golf web sites thought his girls wanted him to wear it out. Great picture, story, family and champion.
Well, all things considered, she does in fact have blonde hair and blue eyes. Tiger’s grain runs that way apparently - and I’d put NOTHING past him at this point.
Phil,
If you want to win a fourth one, you might want to stay away from the Krispy Kremes. Just saying.
Yeah - hopefully Phil follows that advice. He got his weight down last year and this year. His played improved 100%. He supposedly does power lifting and also has a better diet plus carries his clubs when he practices.
A guy I played with one day said carrying your clubs burns off about 800 calories an hour. Yup - Phil - saty away from Crispy Cremes.
Here is another priceless one where Phil is sitting in the grass with his daughters waiting to tee off on the ninth hole. Probably Thur or Friday.
One came to my area here in MA a few years ago and lasted about a year.
I guess they couldn’t compete with the entrenched dunkin donuts and starbucks crowd.
I wish we would get THIS Phil here for the BMW Pro/Am...Oh no! We get Dr. Phil!
I believe that photo was taken during the par-3 tournament.
Phil ping
I’m guessing that pic was taken Monday morning and the smile was still as wide as could be....
I’m sure he hasn’t stopped smiling yet.
Another aside with the family story. Since Amy’s been receiving her treatment in Houston, I would be willing to bet that Phil has spent much time with 41. Being as close to GHWB as Phil is, I’m thinking there was a strong support system there too......
Must read.....Jim Nantz unloaded on Tiger’s Augusts outbursts.
