AUGUSTA, Ga. — Masters patrons applaud all good shots in relation to their difficulty. Heckles are not tolerated. As far as style, it’s the most homogeneously well-dressed crowd in sports. So how to tell what beats inside the hearts of the thousands following the final pairing on an epic Masters Sunday? You ask them. And what you hear might surprise you. Justin Rose was the ultimate challenger, but the foil for most of Masters Sunday was Bryson DeChambeau.

AUGUSTA, Ga. — Of all the nations, who’d have thought Australia would be the most hellbent on making golf style statements at the Masters? Cameron Smith practiced in a four-way stretch navy sport coat on Wednesday, and there was much handwringing over what Jason Day would wear Thursday.
