Ken Griffey Jr. works Masters as photographer, captures Rory McIlroy win

Ken Griffey Jr. had a special assignment last week at Augusta National Golf Club. A 13-time Major League Baseball All-Star during a 22-year career, Griffey was an official photographer for Masters.com.

And The Kid, as he was once dubbed as a rising baseball star, has an eye for the craft.

His work week included shooting photos of Jack Nicklaus, Gary Player and Tom Watson on Wednesday morning at the Honorary Starters ceremony on the first tee.

Griffey was greenside at 18 on Sunday to capture Rory McIlroy’s winning moments as well.

This was Griffey’s first time working for Masters.com and first time covering the tournament. He’s not new to shooting sports, though, as he’s been seen capturing images at several MLB games as well.
