You guys are killing me. I would pay top dollar to go see the final round of the Masters. I tried to stop and see the course, while we were in Augusta last year, but they won't let you near the place.😥. I wanted to buy a golf shirt there.
I got tickets to the 2018 Masters for Tuesday. That's the only day you can bring a camera or phone to the course. It was great. All the big names are practicing and the crowds are small enough that you can follow whoever you like.
Words cannot describe the perfection of that course. You'd swear it was carpet it is so thick and perfectly level cut, but it is grass. It is also STEEPLY hilly. We tried but did not manage to walk the whole course before we were exhausted. I don't know how the players or caddies do it for four days straight, honestly. (Except that they're all a half century younger than we are, LOL!)
Augusta itself is the polar opposite of the course. We stayed at a hotel normally a good name but it was a dump. Somebody had stolen the clothes iron off the wall, and the gaping hole had never been fixed, just as one example. For $350 a night.
I got lucky the year I went my BIL had a corporate apartment and comp tickets for the entire week.. He also had the hookup at some of the really nice corporate sponsored events at the different venues so we had free eats and drinks every evening

I totally get that.. I had a great five day visit at the Masters.
IF you can ever get tickets it is a sight to see. One time I got to go with a friend, marvelous.

The hospitality venues up and down this single road (cannot recall the name) are the place(s) to be in the evening after the golf
A couple of the tickets I kept as mementos
Someday...someday...
Eisenhower Blvd. Ike liked the Masters.
Never had the privilege but, played with 7 friends over in Ireland. Just a great experience. Will always cherish it.
That is cool.. Scotland is on our short list. I want to visit Distilleries and play some golf there
When I just can't sleep, I put on the golf channel. Works every time.
And I just want to go to the Wanenmacher show once...
That's a good one.😄😄
