Louis made his second appearance in The Masters Tournament at Augusta, courtesy of that fantastic win at the Open de Andalucia de Golf, which hoisted him up inside the top 50 of the world rankings.

Louis played in the Wednesday Par Three competition at Augusta and won by two shots finishing on a six under par 21. Louis follows in the footsteps of compatriots Tim Clarke and Rory Sabbatini who won the event in 2008 and 2009. No player who has won the Par Three competition has gone on to win the Masters.

Louis shot a three over par 75 in round one and 77 in round two leaving him on 152, eight over par which missed the halfway cut.

Louis now takes a break before playing in the Open de Espana.
