    "I may need a bit of help getting down," jokes Jack Nicklaus as he tries to put his tee in the ground before lining up his drive.

    No issue for the seasoned master, as he rolls back his club and thuds his ball down the fairway to raucous cheers.

    The 89th Masters is officially under way!

    Record six-time champion Jack Nicklaus has just joined fellow Masters winners Gary Player and Tom Watson to hit the tournament's ceremonial opening tee shots.

    The tradition began in 1963 with Jock Hutchison (1963-1973) and Fred McLeod (1963-1976) performing the duties.

    Nicklaus, 85, has been part of the ceremony since 2010 with 89-year-old Player - a winner of three Masters - joining in 2012. Watson, 75, won two titles and has been in the group since 2022.

    Best week of the year?

    Won't catch me arguing.
