Jay Hebert's Masters Par 3 Contest
Hole in One Wedgwood Plate

A hole in one is surely the highlight of any golfer's career. For Jay Hebert, his most memorable hole in one came in front of thousands of spectators in the famous Masters Tournament Par 3 Contest, which is held on the Wednesday of Masters Week each year. To commemorate his accomplishment, The Masters Tournament awarded Jay Hebert a coveted Masters Champions' Dinner Plate. Not to be confused with the more common Lenox Augusta National plates that were issued to members from 1992 to 1997, these gorgeous Wedgwood plates were produced in approximately the late 1950s. They were used as Par 3 Tournament Prizes in the 1960s and as the actual plates used for dinner at the famed Masters Champions' Dinner each year. In previous sales, even single plates can fetch $3,000-$4,000 at auction.
