In the late ‘80’s and early ‘90’s, eight of us from work would go to Persimmon Hill Golf Club in South Carolina and play on the Saturday and Sunday before the Masters...On Monday, we would drive about 30 miles to Augusta and attend the first practice round...You could get in for $10 on Monday and $20 on Tuesday...

In my opinion, that was more fun than a real round because the players would chat with you and were very friendly because it was practice...

I saw Bernhard Langer give away a dozen new Titleist balls on the putting green by putting them at little kids and saying the ball wasn’t any good, just keep it...LOL

LOL You must have been playing right in front of me. :-)

Those were fun times. I used to go to ALL of the practice rounds.

Last year, I was lucky enough to get to go to the Thur/Friday rounds. It was the first time I ever attended the actual tournament. I can now confirm, it is MORE FUN to go to the practice rounds.
