Eureka Earth photos show heavy lifting to No. 13 at Augusta National, and maybe a new, longer tee

The architects are at it again at Augusta National Golf Club in Georgia, with the par-5 13^th having been stripped of grass, what appears to be drainage work laid under the fairway and the very real possibility that the famed dogleg-left will play longer in the 2023 Masters.

Eureka Earth, a Twitter handle of Augusta-based flight instructor David Dobbins, frequently posts aerial photos of Augusta National. His latest shots posted to Twitter on Monday show the 13^th fairway receiving heavy construction work and what could be a new tee box on land that was purchased in recent years from the adjacent Augusta Country Club.

Augusta National made no comment on the work being done – early privacy in such matters of course renovation is customary for the exclusive club.
