Luke Donald wins Par 3 Contest
Nobody has ever gone on to be Masters Tournament champion four days later, but Donald must now try to break the hoodoo after scoring a five under par 22 - only two outside the record - to beat Angel Cabrera and Raymond Floyd by one.
Padraig Harrington won in 2003 and 2004 and Sandy Lyle in 1997 and 1998 - a decade after he won the main event.
"If I believed in jinxes I wouldn't play in it," said Donald. "I see it more as a challenge. Somebody is going to break that record and hopefully it's me.
"Nobody thought a 63 was possible here until Nick Price did it - and I see it as good preparation. You're holing putts, controlling the spin.
"I'm not really superstitious. I played with Tim Clark, who's a former winner of the par three, and he was asking when I was going to start hitting it in the water, but I almost holed it at the last."
