Phil Harison, a starter at the US Masters for over 60 years, has died aged 82.
Harison became one of the familiar voices of golf in his job introducing the players on the first tee at the Augusta National Golf Club.
He was known to have been one of only two individuals to have attended every single event since the Masters' conception in 1934.
In a statement, Masters Chairman Billy Payne paid tribute to the former mic man: "We are deeply saddened by the loss of Phil Harison.
"Phil was a cherished member who made significant contributions to the Masters. As the starter on the first tee, he was the face of the Masters to many patrons. He did a wonderful job in that role."
Harison put in his last shift at the 2007 tournament, welcoming in the first groups of players.
