Masters, which genre?

Every game of golf tells a story and the genre depends on which level of golf you play. The pros at the Masters are definitely in the 'quest' genre. They're on a journey in which they have to overcome obstacles (creeks, bunkers, hospitality tents) defeat rivals (other pros) and evade detection by the evil ones (armchair experts who watch golf on TV and phone in rule infringements). And then they receive the Holy Grail. Whereas we amateurs start off in the fantasy genre and end up in a tragedy.
