Not only did PGA West recreate the par-three contest, but PGA West executive director Ben Dobbs noticed that more people were out on the golf course, wearing green, and even groups handing out green jackets for their respective winner of the playing.
A very common theme is replicating the food. PGA West, the Classic Club in Palm Desert, and Desert Willow replicated some of the most iconic dishes that are served at Augusta National.
At the Classic Club, head golf professional Luis Sanchez mentioned that some items in the pro shop are on discount due to the prestigious tournament.
Round two of the 89th Masters Tournament will start at 4:10 AM our time.
