Jack Nicklaus and Arnold Palmer with Billy Payne
Honorary starters Arnold Palmer and Jack Nicklaus got the 75th Masters Tournament underway at Augusta National.
Once the legendary pair - with ten Green Jackets between them - had hit tee shots down the middle the action began, with England's Ross Fisher in the first group out.
The Ryder Cup star dropped a shot at the first, but returned to level par with a birdie at the next.
None of the first nine players out at Augusta National were under par, Scot Sandy Lyle and Germany's Alex Cejka both one over after two.
