The most iconic Masters moment from every hole at Augusta National

Just four albatrosses have been hit in the history of the Masters.

The most recent one came from Louis Oosthuizen in 2012, when he sank his second shot on the par-5 No. 2 on Sunday right in the hole. It dropped three strokes from his score and moved him to the top of the leaderboard.

The 243-yard 4-iron was incredible to watch, bouncing onto the green well short of the pin, but rolling the entire length of the green and right into the hole.

"Bubba [Watson] said later he felt like running over and giving me a high-five," Oosthuizen said at the time. "I wish he had; that would have been fun."

Oosthuizen would wind up losing to Watson in a playoff.

Charl Schwartzel entered the final round of the 2011 Masters four strokes off the lead but finished the day with the green jacket. The first major win of his career came thanks to a wild comeback that kickstarted with an eagle on the par-4 Flowering Peach.

The eagle dropped tied Schwartzel with Rory McIlroy, who had led the tournament wire-to-wire up until that point.

McIlroy would go on to collapse on No. 10 and around Amen Corner. Schwartzel held at 10-under until hitting birdies on the final four holes of the tournament to take home the green jacket in miraculous fashion.

Golfers have hit 27 holes-in-one at the Masters since the tournament began in 1934, but just one of them came at No. 4 Flowering Crab Apple, hit by Jeff Sluman in 1992.

Sluman finished the weekend tied for fourth — the best Masters finish of his career, but his ace at No. 4 has still not been matched.

By 1995, Jack Nicklaus was well past his days of dominating at the majors, but at the par-4 No. 5, The Golden Bear showed he still had a bit of magic in him when playing at Augusta.

On Thursday, Nicklaus holed a 5-iron from 180 yards out for an unlikely eagle. Then, on Saturday, he miraculously did it again, this time with a 7-iron from 163 yards.

In the history of the Masters leading up to that moment, 14,732 rounds had been played, and just four eagles had been hit on No. 5. Nicklaus did it twice in three days and gave patrons in attendance a memory they'll never forget.

The Masters always welcomes some of the top amateurs in the country to play alongside the best players in the world, but in 1954, amateur Billy Joe Patton gave the pros a real run for their money.

He hit the best shot of his round on No. 6, one of just five aces that have been hit at Juniper in the history of the tournament. Patton would finish his final round just one stroke behind leaders Sam Snead and Ben Hogan, just one swing from joining them in the playoff.

Years before the idea of lengthening courses to increase their difficulty or "Tiger-proofing" took hold with Woods' dominance, Byron Nelson shattered course expectations when he drove the green on the par-4 No. 7 in 1937.

Nelson would go on to birdie the hole, win the tournament. The next year, Augusta moved the green 20 yards back and surrounded it with bunkers to prevent Nelson from getting another shot at an easy birdie.

Bruce Devlin is another member of the exclusive albatross club at Augusta National, sinking his second shot on the par-5 No. 8 Yellow Jasmine in 1967.

Devlin hit a 4-wood for his second shot from 248 yards, and watched it roll in, calling it a "perfect golf shot."

"It hit on the front of the green, rolled right around the corner and went right in the hole," Devlin said. "I could understand it if the flag was in the middle of the green, but it’s almost impossible to get a wedge up there."

Phil Mickelson won the 2010 Masters, but in the first round, it was Tiger Woods who hit one of the most impressive shots of the tournament that wasn't from Lefty.

Lining up from an impossible angle but still looking for a shot at a birdie, Woods snapped a wild hook around the trees that line the fairway on No. 9 to get the ball on the green in two.

Maybe the most memorable shot at Augusta National of the past decade was Bubba Watson's impossible shot out of the pine needles on No. 10.

After 72 holes, Watson and Louis Oosthuizen were tied for the lead, heading to a playoff. Both players began the playoff with a par on No. 18, sending the contest to No. 10, with both struggling off the tee.

When Watson found his ball, it seemed like he had little chance of finding the green, but he hit a massive slice to put himself in position to win.

At the 1987 Masters, Larry Mize found himself in a playoff with Greg Norman and Seve Ballesteros.

No. 11 was the second playoff hole, and Mize decided he wanted to end things then and there, holing out from 140 feet with an incredible chip to take the green jacket.

A year after announcing his arrival as the next big thing in golf with a wire-to-wire win at Augusta, Jordan Spieth looked poised to become just the fourth person to ever win the Masters in back-to-back years.

Heading into the back nine of the final round, Spieth held a five-stroke lead on the field, looking likely to coast to his second straight green jacket.

But after bogeys on No. 10 and No. 11, Spieth collapsed on No. 12, putting two balls into the water on the par-3 to post a quadruple bogey. Spieth plummeted out of first place and gave Danny Willett a lead that he would not give up.

Making matters worse, as the reigning champion, it was Spieth's responsibility to don Willett with the green jacket that just hours before had seemed almost certainly his.

Phil Mickelson entered the final round in 2010 just a stroke off the lead, his eyes set on a third green jacket.

On the par-5 No. 13, Mickelson hit one of the most memorable shots of his career. Pinned between trees in a position that would force most other golfers to opt for a more cautious approach, Mickelson went for broke, splitting his shot between the trees and landing it just four feet from the hole.

Mickelson missed the eagle opportunity but sank the birdie and went on to win the tournament.

One day before his gutsy decision on No. 13, Mickelson rode a superb stretch of golf to shoot to the top of the leaderboard.

After an eagle at No.13, Mickelson holed out his approach shot on the par-4 No. 14 to drop four strokes in just two holes. He was just the third player in Masters history to hit back-to-back eagles at Augusta.

The first member of the Augusta albatross club was probably the most important. In 1935, the second year of the tournament's existence, Gene Sarazen trailed Craig Wood by three strokes with four holes left to play, needing a miracle to come back and win the tournament.

He would get everything he needed in one swing, hitting what was dubbed "the shot heard 'round the world" when he holed out on the par-5 No. 15 with a 4-wood from 235 yards out.

Sarazen's albatross jumped him into a tie with Wood, and after playing the final three holes at par, Sarazen was able to beat Wood in the playoff to claim one of the most unlikely victories in Augusta's history.

Woods' chip-in at the 2005 Masters might be the most iconic shot in all of golf, so it's no surprise that it's the greatest shot in the history of No. 16.

It's a near-impossible shot that only Woods could sink, and was a key part in his run at the fourth green jacket of his career.

When people remember the dominance of Woods, and his ability to make almost any shot the course demanded of him, this is the moment that immediately springs to mind.

The final major win of Jack Nicklaus' career came in 1986.

With his son caddying, Nicklaus stormed his way up the leaderboard in the final round, playing the final 10 holes of the tournament at seven-under to become the oldest man to ever win the Masters and add a sixth green jacket to his closet.

The tournament-winning moment came on the 17th green when Nicklaus and his son read a tricky 20-foot putt that broke twice. After taking his putt, Nicklaus followed the ball with his body and celebrated its way into the hole as patrons at Augusta rejoiced.

The birdie gave Nicklaus a one-stroke lead that would be enough to secure his final major.

Heading into the 2004 Masters, Phil Mickelson was known to be one of the greatest golfers in the world but had up until that point had always fallen short at the majors.

Despite 17 top-10 major finishes, including three straight third-place finishes at Augusta, Mickelson had never climbed the mountain, but in 2004, he was set to finally make his mark.

Mickelson entered the final day with a share of the lead, and after storming through the back nine, made it to the 18th tee tied with Ernie Els at the top of the leaderboard.

Two shots later, all that stood between Mickelson and his first major victory was a tough, but makeable birdie attempt. He sank it, sending the patrons at Augusta into hysterics.

"Is it his time? YES! At long last!" said Jim Nantz, calling the tournament for CBS.
