Is This The Most Anticipated Course Change In Augusta History?

After years of speculation, the world's most iconic par 5 will have a different look from this year on...

Did you really think the Green Jackets were done tinkering with the hallowed turf at Augusta National? Last year they extended two of the holes – the 11th and 15th – in a bid to tame the game’s biggest hitters. This year they’ve refocused their attentions on the 13th – and it could have a big say on the outcome of future tournaments.

Speculation about lengthening the iconic par 5 has been rife for several years. It’s been that way ever since Bubba Watson found the green in two with a driver-wedge during the final round of his victory in 2014.
