Knowledge The Location of Augusta National and the Masters - A Listeneras Information

Listening to a Masteras broadcast is a bit like being a person in an extremely chummy club, as the announcers experience their insider status by losing cryptic references to the aCrowas Nesta, aEisenhower Treea and aAmen Corner.a If you're just breaking in to the game (and perhaps even if youave been watching for a while), it could all be rather obtuse. But never fear: the GolfBlogger is here with a handy guide for some of the more famous landmark references: Raeas CreekNamed after former house owner John Rae (Rae died in 1789), the creek runs along the back of the 11th green, turns in-front of the green, and then goes prior to the 13th tee. Itas entered by the Hogan Bridge at the 12th and the Nelson Bridge at the 13th. The Hogan BridgeThis bridge, made of stone, joins the fairway of the 12th to the green. It had been named after Ben Hogan in 1958, following his then-course record of 272 strokes over 72 holes in 1953. The Nelson BridgeDedicated to Byron Nelson in 1958, the Nelson Bridge honors his 1937 Masters performance. It joins the ground of the 13th to the fairway. The Sarazen BridgeThis link is named for Gene Sarazen, whose double eagle in the 1935 Masters placed the tournament in to the public mind. It crosses a lake on 15. The Eisenhower TreePresident Eisenhower was a member of Augusta National and spent a great deal of time at the club. Regardless of playing it so frequently, however, he'd serious difficulty with a certain pine tree on the 17th hole, about 210 yards out. At at 1956 club meeting, Eisenhower proposed that the tree be removed. He didnat get his wish, but in the Eisenhower Tree a delicious bit of irony, the loblolly pine has ever after been known. The Eisenhower CabinThis cabina'one of five on the propertya'was built for President Eisenhower to Secret Service requirements. The front porch is adorned with a presidential Eagle. Ikeas PondEisenhower spent a lot of time at Augusta. 1 day, while on a through the woods on the house, he thought he located the right position for a fishing pond.
