Masters Photographs
Here's a little taste of what you'll experience with the purchase of Masters tickets. It has been said that you cannot truly appreciate the beauty of Augusta National unless you've seen it in person. While that is true, we've designed our Masters Photo Tour to keep you exited about your purchase until it's time for you to walk through the gates of Augusta National and behold the glory with your own two eyes. We hope you enjoy our Maters Photo Tour.

Course Highlights
Hole 16 - During practice rounds be sure to check out hole 16. As a tradition, players often skip balls across the water on to the green.
Eisenhower Tree - Located on 17, this 125-year old pine became famous when President Eisenhower lobbied to have the tree cut down because he was always hitting his tee shots into it.
Amen Corner - This is located between holes 11 and 12. It's arguably the most photographed hole in all of golf. When people think of the Masters at Augusta, this is usually the landmark that comes to mind.
