The course is beautiful, but they do use a lot of paint. Most dirt on the course is painted green for the Masters. All concession cups, utensils, napkins etc are green so they will not show on camera if left by a fan. The course also shuts down after the Masters until August. Have a friend that played there and he said he was with 1 of only 2 foursomes that played a round that whole day. The course is very lightly played.
IBM CEO tradition is to be a member at Augusta. The new CEO wants to join but she can’t because woman are not allowed. Place has more money than God. A few years back Martha Burk put pressure on them to allow woman and she pressured their sponsors boycott, Augusta decided to go sponsor-free so that their sponsors would feel external pressure because of anything that the club did/didn’t do. They basically refused all sponsorship. What you can do with money…
If I played their I would never have to worry about hitting it past the ladies tees
