What you need to know about the 2024 Masters at Augusta National, how to watch

The most celebrated even in men's professional golf is almost here.

The 2024 Masters Tournament will take place mid-April in Augusta, Georgia, and features the smallest field in major championship golf. The Masters has been taking place since 1934 and is renown for its traditions, such as the winner receiving a prized green jacket in addition to the Masters Trophy, which depicts the clubhouse in silver.

Just as much as its traditions, the Augusta National Golf Club is also iconic, with famed holes such as No. 12 − the middle of the trio of Nos. 11, 12 and 13 known as Amen Corner − the shortest Par 3 on the course and one of the more recognizable holes in all of professional golf.
