One of the reasons the Masters is so special is because it’s the only one of the four men’s Majors that’s played at the same venue each year.
At any other course this might get a little tedious, but there’s nothing better than reacquainting yourself every April with Augusta National, home of some of the most famous golf holes in the world.
While it looks different to when it was first designed by Bobby Jones and Alister MacKenzie, in the last decade, the enforced removal of the Eisenhower Tree in 2014, and the lengthening of the 5th, 11th, 13th and 15th holes are notable recent changes to the grand layout that continues to evolve.
The course now measures 7,545 yards with a par of 72, made up of four par 3s, ten par 4s and four par 5s.
