Lot #790:

2001 Masters Tournament Commememorative Pin-First of 18 Pin Subset Depicting Holes at Course

The 2001 Masters Tournament Commemorative Pin was a stroke of marketing genius which provided that this popular souvenir would be around for many years to come. The 2001 pin depicted the first hole at the Augusta National, named Tea Olive for the vegitation present on that hole. This started a subset of the pin collection which has carried through year-by-year with each year a subsequent hole following. Presented here is a mint example of the 2001 pin in its original plastic. Tiger Woods won his second Masters and sixth major championship in 2001, two strokes ahead of runner-up David Duval. This championship marked the completion of the Tiger Slam, with Woods having won the U.S. Open, British Open, and PGA Championship in 2000.
