Question: Who Was the First Five-Time Winner of The Masters?

Answer: Jack Nicklaus. Nicklaus won The Masters six times total, the first time in 1963 and the last time in 1986. No one else has won more than four Masters championships.

Nicklaus' six Green Jackets is also a record for most wins in any single major, a record he shares with Harry Vardon (who won six British Opens). Nicklaus also finished second at The Masters four times.
