Kiel Christianson: Bobby Jones provides a NEW Masters memory in 2010

The 2010 Masters was memorable for many reasons -- Phil Mickelson's emotional win, Tiger's return to the public eye, a return to the echoing cheers and Sunday drama.

But for Bobby Jones, the 2010 Masters will be downright unforgettable.

No, not THAT Bobby Jones. A NEW Bobby Jones.

Ten-year-old Bobby Jones's big moment came during the Monday practice round, out of sight of most golf fans. Fortunately for us, though, a local news station did catch the moment on camera.

The video can be seen here. I don't want to give away the ending, but let me just say, it's a story that will bring a smile to the face of all but the most stoney-hearted duffer.

But then again, I am a bit biased. Young Mr. Jones is sort of a relative of mine -- an in-law by marriage, twice removed, or something like that.

Maybe someday 15 or 20 years from now, THIS Bobby Jones will be providing some on-camera Masters thrills for us, too.
