Saturday at the Masters in Augusta, Georgia, a Halifax Mooseheads fan was seen in the crowd among the thousands of fans!
Turns out it was Shane Wall from right here in Halifax taking in the 86th tourney.

It was quite a weekend for Shane to be taking in Tiger Woods mania.
Tiger shot rounds of 71, 74, 78 and 78. As he finished up the tournament yesterday, you could see him using his club as a cane and his right leg limp became more noticeable.
But to think he was in a hospital bed a year ago, this was quite the comeback just to be there.
I didn’t play my best out there, but just to have the support and appreciation from all the fans, I don’t think words can describe that. Congratulations to Scottie Scheffler on an outstanding win. It’s been a special run. pic.twitter.com/8BAMJKlGFY

Tiger says he will play in the British Open later this year.
Scottie Sheffler won the Masters green jacket at just 25 years of age.

It was cool to see he and his wife Meredith make the stroll to the Clubhouse as they are high school sweethearts.
Scottie Scheffler:
"My identity isn't a golf score. Like Meredith told me this morning, if you win this golf tournament, if you lose by ten shots, if you never win another golf tournament again, I'm still going to love you, you're still going to be the same person."

Scottie wins 2.7 million dollars for finishing first and taking his first major golf title!
It was a great weekend that’ll set the mood for getting out on our own Nova Scotia golf courses.
