Masters 2017: Rich Beem looks at the famous 12th at Augusta

Rich Beem takes a trip to the Par 3, 12th at Augusta. To give you a lowdown on another hole on the famous Masters course

Rich Beem takes a look at the most famous hole on the Augusta National golf, the par three 12th - "a short, angry hole."

The Sky Sports pundit goes through the various issues that can cause the players to second guess themselves as they prepare to hit their tee shot and the dangers that await them around the green, even if they do avoid Rae's Creek.

"As we all know the winds swirl on this part of the golf course, unlike any other," Beem explains. "The players will look over to the flagstick at the 11th and see which way it is blowing because that, apparently, gives you the best indication of what is going on up there.

"The problem is that you can look up at the flagstick [at 12] and it could be blowing in the exact opposite direction. Who do you trust? Your caddie? Your eyes? There are so many things as you stand on the tee that put fear and doubt into your head."
