Five months ago, on Thanksgiving morning, Frank Urban Zoeller\u2019s heart gave out a final time.<\/p>\n<partner-banner util-module-path=\"elements\/partner\" fluid=\"\" bottom=\"\" lazy=\"\" class=\"spacer-large\" min-height=\"390\" outstream=\"\"\/>\n<p>Fuzzy\u2019s son-in-law, Chase Wright, said it was a combination of cardiac arrest and a broken heart from the 2021 passing of his wife, Diane, from Alzheimer\u2019s.<\/p>\n<p>Fuzzy\u2019s close friend, Spider Miller, said, \u201cFuzzy never left her side.

Upon receiving his invitation, Spider reached out to his fellow Indianian.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cFuzz said, \u2018Who do you want to play a practice round with?\u2019\u201d Spider recalled. \u201cI said, \u2018Other than you, I\u2019d love to play with Arnie.\u2019\u201d<\/p>\n<p>On Monday in 1997, Fuzzy and Spider paired with Arnold and Jack.<\/p>\n<p>On Tuesday, it was Fuzz, Spider, Arnie and Tom Watson.<\/p>\n<p>For Wednesday\u2019s Par 3 Contest, Fuzzy, Spider and Arnold grouped with one stipulation: any hole-in-one required a $1,000 payout.<\/p>\n<partner-banner util-module-path=\"elements\/partner\" fluid=\"\" bottom=\"\" lazy=\"\" class=\"spacer-large\" min-height=\"600\" outstream=\"\" momentum=\"\"\/><partner-inline util-module-path=\"elements\/partner\" placement=\"native-article_link\" sizes=\"[[300, 250], [3, 3]]\" min-height=\"250\" fluid=\"\" outstream=\"\"\/>\n<p>For eight holes, no aces were recorded, until the trio reached the 140-yard finale over Ike\u2019s Pond, where Fuzzy said, \u201cGet your money out, boys. I\u2019m making this one.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Fuzz wiggled twice, kept a cigarette in his mouth, and blasted into the Georgia dirt.<\/p>\n<p>As the ball disappeared, Arnold locked eyes with Spider.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThat lucky &#8230;,\u201d Palmer uttered.<\/p>\n<p>On the ninth green, Arnold opened his wallet and relinquished 10 bills.<\/p>\n<p>Spider, unsure of how Augusta National would view an amateur with a wad of cash, postponed his delivery.<\/p>\n<p>The next morning, Spider was summoned to the Champions Locker Room. Sitting inside was the King.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI didn\u2019t see you pay Fuzzy,\u201d Palmer said. \u201cYou damn Indiana boys didn\u2019t cut me up, did you?\u201d<\/p>\n<p><media-image image-set=\"bestCrop, https:\/\/www.gannett-cdn.com\/-mm-\/879f90a8acb10c6c559b2a4b48c392d77bc999cd\/c=0-162-1053-952\/local\/-\/media\/2020\/11\/15\/Augusta\/ghows_gallery_ei-GA-201119913-2c3c5815.jpg 4:3, https:\/\/www.gannett-cdn.com\/-mm-\/57c18f050593eaeb47e7150a64c58cf47f68d2e0\/c=108-0-944-1115\/local\/-\/media\/2020\/11\/15\/Augusta\/ghows_gallery_ei-GA-201119913-2c3c5815.jpg 3:4, https:\/\/www.gannett-cdn.com\/-mm-\/241fba3780f84e7e4d1f1e3accb92ea527fb0f18\/c=0-262-1053-854\/local\/-\/media\/2020\/11\/15\/Augusta\/ghows_gallery_ei-GA-201119913-2c3c5815.jpg 16:9\" image-alt=\"Fuzzy Zoeller and Jerry Beard are seen at the 1980 Masters.

Following the meal, he reached into a white bag and handed a bottle of Grecian Formula to Arnold. The gray-headed King burst into laughter, prompting the new champion to say, \u201cArnie, I can\u2019t handle you getting old.\u201d<\/p>\n<partner-banner util-module-path=\"elements\/partner\" fluid=\"\" bottom=\"\" lazy=\"\" class=\"spacer-large\" min-height=\"390\" outstream=\"\"\/>\n<p>Fuzzy attended his final supper in 2025, where Tiger was noticeably absent.<\/p>\n<partner-inline util-module-path=\"elements\/partner\" class=\"spacer-large\" placement=\"native-article_link\" sizes=\"[[300, 250], [3, 3]]\" min-height=\"250\" fluid=\"\" outstream=\"\"\/>\n<p>In Fuzz fashion, the \u201979 champ ordered the Texas chili and a ribeye, while slinging one-liners about each dish.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt was a five-alarm fire,\u201d he said of the bean soup.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>As for the main course, Fuzzy declared, \u201cIt must have been half a cow.
