Bloomington's own Brandon Holtz is competing in his first Masters in Augusta.

At 39, Brandon never gave up on his dreams of playing on the world's biggest stage in the sport he loves. After attending the tournament for over two decades with his father and brother, his father will walk the course with him as his caddy.

We're rooting for you, Brandon!

You can track Brandon's progress through the weekend here: https://www.masters.com/en_US/players/player_70147.html

The most interesting man in the Masters field is a 39-year-old real estate agent who used to visit Augusta National every year as a patron.
