Georgia realtor receives invitation to play the Masters by mistake

[Renew Deal]

Scott Stallings arrived at his condo on Georgia’s Saint Simons Island to find a package holding the most prestigious letter in golf.

He’d been invited to play in the Masters tournament in April. The only problem was this Scott Stallings is a realtor in Atlanta, not the the world’s 54th ranked golfer who is also a three-time PGA Tour winner.

“I’m (emoji 100) sure this is NOT for me,” the realtor Stallings wrote in a direct message to the pro-golfer Stallings. “I play but wow! No where near your level.”

The pro-golfer Stallings – who is in Hawaii – tweeted he was “checking the mailbox five times a day” for an invitation to return to the Masters for the first time since 2014. Instead he got a direct message on Instagram from the realtor saying he had received the invitation by mistake. CNN has reached out to Augusta National for comment on the mishap.

1. Oh man...I would have shown up...

a ragged set of garage-sale clubs in tow, plaid shorts, white socks, black tennis shoes, unshaven, etc.

2. Augusta Should, At Tbe Very Least...

...extend an invitation to him to bring a foursome to play a round.
Next level would be to do it on the Monday after the tournament and comp him 4 tix to Sunday's round.
