The top golfers in the world will converge at Augusta National for the Masters, golf’s first major championship, in 2024. With former Masters champions like Jon Rahm and Bubba Watson joining the Saudi-sponsored LIV Golf breakaway tour, the past few years have been turbulent for the sport.

Thursday, April 11, marks the official start of the tournament's round one, and Sunday, April 14, marks the conclusion. However, when players show up to play practice rounds on Monday, preparations will get serious. An amusing Wednesday competition on the par-three course is a yearly tradition. A "curse" that has become part of tournament legend states that no player has ever won the Par-3 course and gone on to win the Masters.

The Augusta National Golf Club is situated in Georgia's northeastern region, not far from the Savannah River and South Carolina's border. One of the world's most exclusive and private golf clubs is Augusta National. There are only about 300 members, including Peyton Manning, Warren Buffet, and Bill Gates. The only way to play the course is on a member's invitation.

Masters Tournament History

Bobby Jones came up with the concept for Augusta National because he wanted to construct a golf course after quitting the sport. Clifford Roberts, who later took over as the club's chairman, provided him with advice. In Augusta, Georgia, they came across a plot of land, and Jones remarked, "Perfect! And to think this ground has been lying here all these years waiting for someone to come along and lay a golf course upon it."

The area had been a plant nursery since 1857 and an indigo plantation in the early nineteenth century. The project started in 1931 after Jones hired Alister MacKenzie to assist with course design. Although MacKenzie passed away before the first Masters Tournament was played, the course was officially opened in 1933.

Horton Smith took home the $1,500 first prize after winning the inaugural "Augusta National Invitation Tournament," as the Masters were formerly known, on March 22, 1934. In 1939, the current name was chosen. The first competition was held with holes 10 through 18 as the first nine and 1 through 9 as the second nine; however, for the 1935 competition, the layout was permanently switched.

The initial field for the “Augusta National Invitation” was made up of Bobby Jones' close friends. Jones had asked the USGA to hold the U.S. Open at Augusta, but the USGA rejected the request, citing the challenging playing conditions that the hot Georgia summers would bring.

Gene Sarazen's double eagle on the par-5 15th hole in 1935 was known as the "shot heard round the world." This put Sarazen and Craig Wood in a tie, and Sarazen won the subsequent 36-hole playoff by five strokes. Due to World War II, the tournament was not played from 1943 to 1945.

Recent Past

Jordan Spieth tied Tiger Woods' record for the highest 72-hole scoring in 2015, becoming the second-youngest winner (behind him) in just his second Masters. In a playoff, Sergio Garcia defeated Justin Rose in 2017 to win his first major championship after a long wait. Tiger Woods won the 2019 Masters, his first major championship since 2008 and his first victory at Augusta National in 14 years.

The 2020 Masters Tournament, which was initially slated to take place April 9–12, was moved to November due to the then-ongoing COVID-19 outbreak. By a margin of five strokes, Dustin Johnson prevailed in the competition. Hideki Matsuyama won in 2021 with a one-stroke (3 under par) margin of victory. In 2022, Scottie Scheffler won by three strokes (10 under par). He defeated Rory McIlroy by three shots for a score of 278, under 10.

In 2023, Jon Rahm won his first Masters tournament, his second major title and his 20th overall professional win. The third round was delayed due to weather, finally Rahm won the event for a two-shot deficit. He defeated Brooks Koepka and Phil Mickelson by a margin of four strokes with a score of 276, under 12.
