Just a quick note to say thank you for your organisation of our trip to the US Masters. It is without doubt the very best golf tournament I have attended and will be sure to make all my playing partners suitably jealous for years to come. We thought the hotel in Augusta was great and additional golf at Kiawah Island was absolutely superb. We hope to return for the 2012 Masters so please do send through any information on packages you have.
David M
I was lucky enough to go to the Masters this year and although I look forward to watching it on the TV every year, I can now inform everyone that there is nothing like being there to see it first-hand. Augusta always looks spectacular on the BBC coverage but the real thing is so much better. The one thing I was struck by the most was the undulations and subtleties to the course that you can’t see on the TV. I have been to plenty of professional tournaments in my time and none have come close to matching the exciting buzz that goes around Augusta.
We stayed at the Sheraton Augusta and it was perfect for what we were looking for. A stop off at Pinehurst after the tournament put the icing on the cake. I would like to be informed of the 2012 packages you have on offer as soon as possible. I have already started saving!
Robert Peace
After years of lusting after Augusta National on TV I finally said to myself enough is enough and travelled to Georgia for this year’s Masters. I thought it might not live up to my expectations but the whole experience blew me away. The course looked even better than it does on TV and it was an amazing experience to get up close and personal with the world’s best players. The town was alive with Masters fever and was a great place to stay. I will definitely be returning in the future so if you could send me details of packages for the 2012 Masters I would be very grateful. Thank you for a great golf holiday!
Derek A
Just got back from the States following our trip to see the Masters at Augusta. What a week of golf it was! The course was amazing and so were the players. We stayed at the Jameson Suites and played golf next door to the tournament at Augusta Country Club. That was a great course and really made us feel like we were playing the real thing! Needless to say none of my friends at my local golf club are talking to me anymore. I would love to be there again for the 2012 Masters so I will be keeping my eyes peeled for the packages you have on offer.
Paul Grieves
I travelled to Georgia this year to watch the Masters and it was the best golf holiday I have ever been on. We booked the Practice Round package and watched the tournament from the comfort of our hotel in Augusta. Augusta was rocking and you can see how important the Masters is to this community. We played golf at Sage valley and it was the best course any of us had ever played. Thank you so much for organising the trip...everything ran smoothly and like I said it was the best golf break ever!
Tony M
Just a quick one to thank you for coordinating the Masters golf holiday that I booked with you. I booked it for my husband’s 50th birthday present so I think I deserve a place in the wife hall of fame! We stayed at the Lodge on Lake Oconee which was just over an hours drive away from Augusta National. It was perfect for us as it was nice and secluded. We were obviously saddened by Rory’s demise on Sunday but the golf was amazing none the less. I think my husband will be keen to go back with his friends so if you could send me information on 2012 Masters packages I will pass them on. Thank you YGT!
Pamela S
Having just arrived home from our Masters golf break I wanted to say a big thanks to YGT for all the hard work that went in to our week in Augusta. The whole trip went off without a hitch and we consider ourselves very lucky to have been there to watch the action up close. The course is so different to what I had imagined on TV. Amen Corner was obviously the highlight and we chose to set up camp near the 12th tee. We capped the trip off with a bit off golf at Sea Island and the Seaside Course was the best I had ever played. All in all our Masters trip was a complete success and actually exceeded my lofty expectations.
Howard Gittings
I booked to go to the Masters this year and what a decision that was! The tournament was the best I have ever been to and so was the course. I can only hope that one day I will get the chance to play it! Shame about McIlroy but that was literally the only disappointment of the week. Our hotel was great and we loved the town of Augusta. I can’t imagine what it would be like when the Masters leaves town. We played at Pinehurst and that was a memorable experience as well. I would very much like to go back to Augusta for the 2012 tournament and would like to try and get tickets for the weekend. Could you please send me details of the packages you offer that include such tickets?
A big thank you goes to our Your Golf Travel for a great week in Georgia.
Michael M
I would like to congratulate Your Golf Travel for organising the best golf break I have been on in over 22 years! Going to the Masters is every golfers dream and I have now ticked that box...I also hope to do so again and again so I would appreciate being sent the information regarding 2012 Masters packages.
Another dream of mine was to play at Kiawah Island and to be able to do this and see Augusta fir the first time in the same week was a mind blowing experience. I loved every minute of it and can’t wait until next year. I will hopefully be persuading more of my golfing buddies to come along so we can have our own War on the Shore!
Greg S
Our trip to the Masters was absolutely amazing and we would like to thank everyone who was involved in the organisation of it. Seeing Augusta in the flesh was great and when I watch the future Masters tournaments on TV I will be winding my mates up by reminding them that I was there! We stayed in the Radisson Columbia which was really nice and played a bit of golf at the Augusta Country Club which is literally as close as you can get to the real thing. All in all it was probably the best golf trip I have ever been on. Thanks again YGT.
Graeme Penrose
Having arrived home from the Masters I felt compelled to thank Your Golf Travel for organising my dream golf holiday! I have always wanted to see Augusta and I have never been to such an exciting tournament. The roars that reverberate around the course are chilling and it is so obvious when a certain Mr Woods is responsible for them. We actually located him on the Sunday by following the loudest cheers!
We stayed in the Sheraton Augusta and I am really glad we chose this hotel because the atmosphere around the town was so much fun to be a part of. We played Bartram Trail and Forest Hills and they were both stunning golf courses. Everything considered this was the best golf break I have been on by some distance. I will be returning next year so would appreciate you sending me details of packages for next year’s tournament.

After Phil Mickelson’s display at Augusta last year, few would have expected the 2011 US Masters to live up to expectations. However, this is the Masters we’re talking about and we should not forget the quality of golf and the level of competition that is produced year after year at Augusta National. The drama that unfolds over the back nine every year at Augusta makes the Masters the highlight of the golfing calendar. This year was no exception with seven players holding a share of the lead at various stages and a barrage of birdies and bogeys flying in all over the course. It looked like the changing of the guard and then the return of Tiger Woods before Schwartzel provided the finishing touch in fine style with four closing birdies. The Masters, it seems, never fails to deliver and in all likelihood will be the tournament to watch in 2012.
The US Masters 2012 will take place in the first week of April. The first practice round will take place on Monday the 2nd of April 2012 with the champion being crowned on the evening of Sunday the 8th of April 2012 when we will hopefully have witnessed something along the lines of this year’s tournament at the finest golfing arena in the game; Augusta National.
The Masters was started by Clifford Roberts and Bobby Jones, who designed Augusta National with legendary course architect Alister MacKenzie, but at first one of the world's most famous and beautiful golf courses was nothing more than 365 acres of simple farming land. Due to the foresight of Bob Jones and Clifford Roberts, Fruitlands Nurseries purchased the land for $70,000 in 1931 and it is now home to the revered Augusta National Golf Course.
After the course was completed, its creators came up with the idea of organizing an annual tournament drawing all the best players from across the world. For the first five years of the tournament, it was called the Augusta National International Tournament but in 1939, its name changed to The Masters.
In line with the other majors, winning the Masters gives a golfer several privileges which make his career more secure. Masters champions are automatically invited to play in the other three majors (the U.S. Open, The Open Championship, and the PGA Championship) for the next five years, and earn a lifetime invitation to the Masters. They also receive membership on the PGA Tour for the following five seasons and invitations to The Players Championship for five years. In 2006 the prize fund was US$7 million.
European players collected eleven victories in twenty years in the 1980s and 1990s, by far the strongest streak they have had in any of the three majors played in the United States since the early days of the U.S Open. Jack Nicklaus became the oldest player to win the Masters in 1986 when he won for the sixth time at age 46. In 1997, headlines were made around the world when Tiger Woods won the Masters by twelve shots at age twenty-one. Jose Maria Olazabal was the last European to win the Masters in 1999.
Like many other courses, Augusta National's championship set-up has been lengthened in recent years. In 1998, it measured approximately 6,925 yards from the Masters tees but in 2006 it was almost 500 yards longer at 7,445 yards. As well as the course being extended, the teeing positions have been altered. Some experts predict that Augusta may now play as many as three shots more following the changes, which would be approved by Jones and Roberts, whose vision was to challenge the best players in the game of golf.
