Augusta is a second shot golf course. It always has been, because you can spray it anywhere off the tee and usually be in play.
As good as those guys are, most cannot hit high draws all day with their driver and change to a cut swing for their irons and have it be repeatable.
It's not a coincidence that the guys with the most sustained success at Augusta have hit a high cut.
Look at the guys who challenge there year after year now:
Tiger: High cut
Phil: High cut
Freddy: High cut
That's not to mention the most successful of all, Jack Nicklaus.
