Discover the Masters from the grandeur of the property. See what makes Augusta National so spectacular, from tees to fairways to crosswalks, the incredible stops for rest, relaxation and spectating.
When you come in, at the main scoreboard you’ll see the first green where the contours are unreal. Many players say it is the toughest hole on the 72-par course. Walking down the right side of the hole, this was a popular spot for photographers where they could easily capture the thousands of spectators, and see the expanse of the property.
Here, it’s all about tradition. But in 2019 a new tournament welcomed women: The inaugural Augusta Women’s Amateur (AMNWA). The event showcased the clout that this property attracts.
The beautiful 13th green is one of the best observation stops. The 11th, 12th, and 13th holes are called “Amen Corner.” When you come to Augusta National, this is the stop you must see and enjoy. Putting a folding chair here to sit and watch the amazing pro shots, you’ll see the flowering azaleas, dogwood trees and hear the birds overhead. Augusta National is breathtaking.
On these grounds are amazing stories, you can hear players talking, or meet-up with some friends, perhaps at the Amen Corner. Work your way back up to the clubhouse, where you can see the Masters scoreboard and finish-up your tour of these 18 immaculate holes.
