On May 31, Eureka Earth posted photos of the Augusta National Par 3 course torn to shreds, more resembling a dirt patch than a golf course.
Just months later, the popular Twitter page has updated the golf world with news pictures of the short course, which look spectacular.
The changes feature a few additions.
According to EE, “two new cabins, an event building, a member restroom, a player pavilion, a merchandise building, and two restrooms, have been completed.”
It’s hard to imagine we’ll get any information directly from Augusta in the coming months, leaving us to wait until the 2023 Masters — scheduled for April 6-9 — for official word.
The Par 3 Contest will be held Wednesday, April 5.
The ANGC Par 3 Northeast Pond Grading & Drainage Revisions, which include two new cabins, an event building, a member restroom, a player pavilion, a merchandise building, and two restrooms, have been completed.#TheMasters #Masters2023

🚨 Drastic Changes 🚨
BREAKING- The Augusta National Par-3 Course is undergoing drastic changes!
While the two 1987 Fazio-designed holes may escape, the original holes designed by George Cobb in 1958 appear to be a thing of the past.
