Master's Thread...

[dpricenator]

Ok so here is the official thread for the Masters. If you have some cool Masters trivia or videos post em here. I watched a bit of the Par 3 tourney today. I wish I could hit approaches like that. Anyway here is Vijay Singh yeaterday at 16 during practice. Some of you know that they mess around in poractice and skip the ball across the water. Anyway Vijay hits his last. Watch what happens.

The Masters is like Christmas for me - I'll probably watch every minute of the coverage. Still waiting to hit the ticket lottery to attend a couple practice rounds...

Trivia-You have to be a Patron ticket holder to get tickets. They are hard to get.

My grandfather's neighbors got on that list in the 70's. They are generous enough to give my dad, and my grandfather the tickets for Saturday and sometimes Sunday. He has been going ever since I can remember maybe around 18-20 years now. It has been his birthday gift from my grandfather.

I always get golf balls, and hats from the event.

Who the hell is Ross Fisher? -4 through 8??!! Sounds like the course is playing pretty easy at the moment.

I thought practice tickets were sold openly, while tournament days were for patrons on the list?

Andy North was saying last night on SportsCenter that they expected lots of red numbers today.

I believe there is a lottery system for the available practice round tickets

I'm not sure, but regardless they are still very hard to come by. They aren't expensive so I am told. Just hard to get a hold of.

 

[tobby4]

There is a lottery for the practice rounds from people that are on a waiting list as well as a few influential individuals in the area.

The tickets themselves are really not that expensive unless you try and buy em 2nd hand. My brother and dad are going with Stewart Cinks tickets today, he only gave us 2 so while looking for one for myself so i could join em the cheapest one day ticket was 400+

 

[ECPrevatte]

Aren't they "passes" for the Masters for the entire event? That's what my dad told me. You can't buy just one day tickets? If you get caught doing something wrong you can have your entire Masters pass pulled. That's what I have been told from my dad.
