I was so close, only 10 off  For those of us that wondered about those clues, especially clue 2 and clue 3, I kinda wonder what the meaning to the number 268 is? I was thinking the record was a #78, hence my guess of 278... And I took LIV to be the Roman 54, but I was clueless on the DJ part...

Just wondering if I also gave the correct answer, but later, then I won't get anything? Is there only one winner?
I could have guessed earlier, but it seemed to me that the second clue was related to the result of "4-under-par score of 276".

2nd clue was LIV golf tour in which Dustin Johnson "DJ" participated in 2022, 2023, and 2024. Third clue was the cup with the word "masters" printed on it sitting on top of the record. This indicated a masters win for DJ in the LIV tour. DJ won masters in 2022 with score of 268. Read about it here: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dustin_Johnson
