Bad joke. You'd have got it if the original post said "keep it up".
Depends upon if you’re talking about face value from the club, or purchasing them on the secondary market. All tickets are cheap when purchased directly from Augusta.
Very true.....I believe practice rounds are $75 face value, tournament rounds are $115 face value. That’s why you ALWAYS enter the annual lottery!
For how many tickets per day? Please don’t say one.Is that a lottery price?
That would be the approx ballpark market price for one week-long ticket bought through someone on stub-hub or if you bought them on the street in Augusta during the tournament.
Look to my prior post for the price of tickets if you won tickets in the annual lottery.

I like the leaderboard from the Masters web site. It looks just like the one on 18.

That’s not from today.....surprised ANY tournament let that ass in (the fan, not Tiger).
He’d be led out of Augusta the moment someone saw it (which is part of the beauty of The Masters).
At most tournaments (Masters might be an exception), I have found it super easy to arrive around 2PM and score free pass from someone who's leaving.
Much different than most other sports, some people (mostly corporate sponsors & their guests) come, watch a bit, hit the hospitality tent for lunch, & leave. Or they might have come to watch one player, or got too hot, or whatever. But they leave before the days play is over, and the pass is worthless to them.
Again, Masters is possibility more restricted, but seen PGA, US open, etc this way.

There is a secondary market, but it costs $ (and some risk). Tickets can only be scanned twice in a day, so if you buy them off someone that’s leaving, you’re rolling the dice that they’ve only gone thru a gate once that day.
Funny story...Monday night, went out to a bar in Augusta to watch a very overrated Virginia basketball team. Got talking to the two guys at the next table, as one of them worked in the Ohio St athletic department, and the other one lived in Augusta. Every year, the guy from Augusta said he’d buy tix off someone leaving for the day for $50-$100 on a practice round day. They did just that on Monday for $50 each around 3pm, and as they walked up to the gate, the horn sounded to close the course for the day due to lightning. $100 down the drain.
You are that offended by it? It was the players a few weeks ago and Tiger thought it was hilarious, smiled the entire time at the guy. Life is no fun if you cant laugh at yourself and others from time to time.
If I saw that shirt at a health club or on a jogger or at a beach, I’d laugh. I smiled when I saw it last night.
But to post that pic in a thread about The Masters I thought was tacky. And again, I would think the fan would not be admitted / would be tossed from most tour events. I’d expect to see that shirt at the TPC-Scottsdale drunkfest.
Fair, is it possible he had a light jacket zipped over it and took the jacket off in that moment?
Yeah, apparently historically stacked, according to this ESPN article
This Masters literally has the most loaded leaderboard ever
There is more star power atop the leaderboard than on the sidewalks of Hollywood Boulevard.
Five players share the 36-hole lead, and each of them -- Italy's Francesco Molinari (2018 Open Championship), Australia's Jason Day (2015 PGA Championship) and Adam Scott (2013 Masters), South Africa's Louis Oosthuizen (2010 Open Championship) and American Brooks Koepka (2017 and '18 U.S. Open and 2018 PGA) -- has at least one major championship title.
Actually, five players with major titles have never shared the lead after any round in any major. In fact, it's the first time since the 2002 PGA Championship that any five players -- with or without a major title -- have shared the 36-hole lead at a major.
And, oh, by the way, Tiger Woods, with his 14 major championships, and Dustin Johnson, with his 2016 U.S. Open title, are only 1 shot back.
Their scores paired them together, not the tournament.
Look at your context and you make it sound like the tourney put them together. I was gonna state the same reply but chose not to.
Walking around the course Mon-Wed and then being around the last two days to see the conditions, it’s surprising that the lead isn’t better than 7. But the stacked board with all of the world-class players on it is gonna turn this into a total shootout over the next two (three? oh heck no) days.
Of course they are paired from there scores. They are always paired from the scores. Really we are going to jump on context or grammar? Must be a slow morning. Can you guys drink your damn coffee already.
I, too, was amazed at the efficiency in getting patrons through both the restroom and concession lines. My mom (a tavern owner) always said “make it easy for them to give us their money”.
Although the concession prices are ridiculously low at Augusta, I would have taken my mom there the very next year after my first visit to allow her to appreciate their efficiency (if she was still around). Of course, she would have had a stroke when I bought a $400.00 cashmere sweater! LOL, God I miss her!
Ok, “there” scores.....we’ll jump on spelling.
So, serious question, why do you think the pairing “is not good for either”?
Maybe Phoenix but I don’t see heckling at Augusta. I think good pairing. Both older accomplished players. Pouter and Tiger will be fun to watch on moving day.
Apparently you haven’t watched much golf in the last few months. Adam has been using a short putter that looks like the Taylormade Spider but with a bigger head. And if he goes to the long putter, he’s employing the same stroke that Kuchar and Webb Simpson use - up the forearm. Unless you think those two are cheating too.
