I’m not a golfer. This is a fake crisis. Golf is an outdoor sport. Decision makers for the Masters are acting like fools.

I’m not arguing with your conclusion.
But they do have 40/50,000 peeps in fairly close proximity on the grounds.

[noexcuses]

I agree. The Masters is my #1 tournament.

We have an Optishot golf simulator setup in hubby's mancave.....and every year during Masters week we can play a replica of Augusta along with the pkatyers. So much fun!

The azaleas won’t wait ...

The azaleas won’t wait …

Don't bet on it. Knowing the Augusta crew, they are building a green house right now in which they will start growing thousands of Azalias that will bloom just in time for the rescheduled tournament. Which will then be planted by hand. It's the Masters way.

This is dumb. Just don’t allow any spectators. 120 golfers, 120 caddies, and few camera men, some drones and the usual list of roving analysts including David Feherety, Gary McChord, Jim Nance, and Nick Faldo.

They could make it real for the tv audience. Just record some drunk people yelling "IN THE HOLE" when a golfer puts, and "YOU DA MAN", after he hits a drive. And record a whole crowd of people yelling "GO TIGER", even when he stops at the porta-potty to take a leak. It would be as if there is a crowd of people there.

And get a little of this at tee and green and the start of each round.
