Wednesday April 9, 2008
will johnson The Wednesday tradition during Masters Week is the Par-3 Contest, and today's event once again featured many of the golfers bringing their sons or daughters to the course with them as "caddies." Among those was little Will Johnson (pictured), the 1-year-old son of defending champion Zach Johnson.

While the Par-3 Contest is very informal - many of the golfers let their caddies hit some shots or take some putts - it's still a tournament that crowns a winner. And the winner in 2008 was Rory Sabbatini. Is this good news or bad for Rory? No Par-3 Contest winner has ever gone on to win The Masters in the same year.
