The 90th edition of the Masters will return to our screens on Thursday, April 9. Considered by many to be the best week of golf each year, the traditions at Augusta National are legendary.
But there’s no need to fork out on tickets and travel. We can replicate the elements of the experience right here in TBAY:
- Among Augusta’s unique spectator experiences is a ban on phones, meaning patrons are more engaged with the event. Maybe you could leave your phone in the car the next time you hit a trail.
- Despite its prestige, concessions are famously cheap at the Masters — there are deals aplenty around Tampa Bay, too.
- If you want to hit the course, we’re fans of Rogers Park Golf Course. It has a brand-new, high tech driving range, short course, 18 serene holes, and food + drink options. Part of the Florida Historic Golf Trail, it’s also one of the best public courses in the state.
