AUGUSTA, Ga. — The Masters creates more than great memories of the champions. The losers can be just as memorable.

For every fist pump by Tiger Woods, there's a collapse by Greg Norman.

Jack Nicklaus is famous for his back-nine charge. Ed Sneed is famous for losing a three-shot lead with bogeys on the last three holes.

Curtis Strange believes the familiarity of Augusta National as the only major played on the same course is what allows people to remember what went wrong as much as what went right. He had his own mishap in 1985.

So many others did, too.
