L'importance de ce tournoi, pourtant disputé aux États-Unis, lui vaut d'avoir une appellation reconnue en français. Il s'agit d'un tournoi regroupant les maîtres du golf, amateurs et professionnels. D'où le fait qu'au Canada on dise parfois «le Masters»; cet anglicisme est à éviter. Par contre, en France, on considère ce tournoi comme le plus important, d'où «le master»; cette appellation est correcte pour l'Europe qui utilise abondamment l'anglais au golf. 2, record 3, French, - Tournoi%20des%20Ma%C3%AEtres
