The 1968 US Masters Golf Tournament in Augusta, Georgia, was the 32nd Masters Tournament. Bob Goalby won his only major championship, one stroke ahead of Roberto De Vicenzo, the reigning British Open champion. On the back nine in the final round, Goalby birdied 13 and 14 and eagled 15 to record a 66. At first it appeared that he had tied with De Vicenzo and the two would meet in an 18-hole Monday playoff, but De Vicenzo returned an incorrect scorecard showing a par 4 on the 17th hole, instead of a birdie 3. Playing partner Tommy Aaron incorrectly marked the 4 and De Vicenzo failed to catch the mistake and signed the scorecard. USGA rules stated that the higher written score signed by a golfer on his card must stand, and the error gave Goalby the win.
Frank Beard tied 5th with a 75, 65, 71 & 70. Gary Player tied 7th with a 72, 67, 71 & 72.
