Went to ANWA in April with my son. Experience of a lifetime - the course is more magnificent in person than it looks on TV. Truly the top of my bucket list to see Augusta National - what a treasure!
It is one of the many, many great traditions that make the Masters by far my must-watch tournament. It just has so much more meaning than other tournaments. The Open has the longer history, but the Masters is the most coveted. And one thing they didn't focus on in this video is that these treacherous holes are just fabulously beautiful and immaculately groomed.
love seeing this type of content! Great work to everyone who put this together. The story of Augusta National needs to be told to the younger generation
The Masters at Augusta is the greatest event on the calendar each year . Of all sports . Nothing beats The Masters. And its all because of Augusta National Golf Course . Its perfection and its better than The Open at St Andrews . From a Scotsman.
I was thinking about how every iconic player has a bridge named after them and how it was important to their memory at Augusta. Gene Sarazen and the "shot heard 'round the world" at 15. So I was thinking about Tiger, and it's very clear that his chip-in on 16 may very well be his most iconic shot, I hope they will one day dedicate something there to Tiger. _IN YOUR LIFE!_
It's pretty nice course, best,? The hilly layout is not indicative to early Golf of Scotland or Ireland. Links golf is the best, although I believe wood lined courses are an American invention. Many early golf courses planted trees to line and define the holes, 100 yrs later those trees become a forest...water too was not much on links except an ocean. Even Augusta didn't originally have such trees, it was an orchard. I worked at masters , great experience but after being there a few times the first time magic wears off, too many people, too many elitests, greedy... Snobby...locals consume most tickets because of grandfather clause and sell them, or rent them out basically, so they can make $$$. 1 badge now goes in 2/3 times a day...I'm sure Bobby Jones would be appauled by what the place became...
Yeah maybe but to me a straight out No for being an elitist private club with a questionable past, hugely overpriced for bragging rights. Nice yes but imo, private courses should not be used for tour events. Why give rich private clubs a revenue stream when there are amazing public courses that need financial help and would really gain from tour exposure.
Agree with your premise 100%, but also support a carve-out for Augusta National and The Masters. It is simply the greatest sporting event in the world.
@@Seektruth-59 look, my background is in Turfgrass Management, so let me have some insight for ya. There are private clubs that want nothing to do with a tour stop…I’m a Pennsylvanian, and it’s all too common knowledge around here that Lancaster CC told the USGA “no” for many years…the disruption required for even a regular tour event is MASSIVE, let alone a major. Augusta has created an environment that yes, is private and exclusive and serves their membership wants but also, and more Importantly, serves to the growth of the tournament and ultimately the growth of the game. And let’s not let envy misguide us…it’s an all too common trait among many people in the age of social media and especially among young people.
Great content. Watching from Canada. Can't wait for The Masters!!

Very enjoyable viewing and thank you for posting. Watching from Dublin, Ireland.
Dublin, what a wonderful place. Truly, Richard
We need a full video of the entire course 👏🏼👏🏼

Excellent video ! Best major hands down
내가 기억하는 골프의 모든것들은 바로 여기에 있어요.
새벽잠 설치면서 중계 방송을 보던 기억도...모두 .
영원한 오거스타.
세계 최고의 골프장.
이렇게 보게해 주셔서 감사합니다. 😀😀😀

The shot by Mickelson in 2010 at the 13th stands out for me as one of the best there that I have ever seen. From trouble to incredible in one shot.
I'm a lefty and a big fan. Hard to believe he missed the putt, but he still made birdie lol.
Thank you, absolutely loved it.

So beautiful. What a soul experience would be to play those three holes.

Who narrates the opening Walt Whitman poem? It along with the videography of the course has me in utter awe

The Masters is not a PGA tour event. It's an invitation only. It's why they have more international and amateur players than PGA events.
Blasphemy
Pls don’t let trump attend, he has a poor history on Hallowed ground 😂
He'll probably buy the place after his next term! LOL
I watched Amen corner basically de rail Spieths entire career
Thank you, absolutely loved it.
