I'd say the Masters, just because it's played on the same course every year. All of the majors are prestigious, all of them have history, and the British is the oldest, but the Masters has been played on ONE COURSE every time - every hole on that course is well known to players and spectators alike. If they ever changed the US Open so it was played on Pebble Beach every year, I might have to reconsider, but they're not gonna... I played Pebble once, 40 years ago. I should say I walked rode around Pebble (carts were mandatory) once and made a great contribution of golf balls to the Pacific Ocean Gods that day. I stopped keeping score at around 120. It was as beautiful as it was brutal.
