Re: Had to share this
WOW. Fascinating! Who would have thought that the course would have changed SO much from the original. Not sure 100% all the changes are improvements - but then they have to make the course challenging for the best in the world. Thanks for sharing!!
Re: Had to share this
They might not be improvements per say. It's funny, we all have this idea of the timelessness of Augusta. But the Masters is timeless. The course, apparently, MUST change to stay... relevant to the type of game golf is. And, let's face it, for growth. Take 16. Historic today. Kinda crude in 1934.
