Only a few days to go that can be counted on your fingers. This is how close the Augusta National is from today. The 2022 Masters at the Augusta National will be the starting of the men's major season and the beginning of the major golf championships to be held this year. It will be played from April 7th to April 10th at the Augusta National Golf Club, in Augusta, Georgia. There is great excitement from fans that is building with each passing moment. The anticipation for the 2022 Masters at the Augusta National had started early in January. This is when the annual winter tradition starts. The invitations to the Augusta National have already reached the respective players' mailboxes. The final remaining spots in the tournament field are also starting to get filled. Suppose you have never experienced the frenzy of the tournament before. In that case, you will have to forgive the fans for their excitement regarding what is going to happen in the near future.
The golf course has been redesigned for the 2022 Masters at the Augusta National. Tiger Woods said about the redesigned course, "If they didn't tell you that they changed anything and you go there, you'd think it looks the same as it did every other year. It's just absolutely amazing. The 11th hole, I think it's a good change. [They] took a little of the dogleg out and some trees out of the right-hand side. That's a good change. And then 15, I haven't seen it yet, but we're almost going to be on the back of 10 green. I didn't know there was land back there. They find land. They can make land."
The PGA tournament is going to happen from 4th April, Monday, to 10th April, Sunday.
