Weather At The Masters This Week

Storms wreaked havoc on Augusta National Golf Club and the course closed late in the morning.

According to weather.com, scattered thunderstorms are expected in the morning, with them expected to become more widespread in the afternoon.

This is a huge bummer for those invested in the Masters Par-3 Contest, which is making its return this year after a two-year hiatus.

Starting Thursday, there isn’t any rain in the forecast for the rest of the week. The sun should be shining and we shouldn’t expect any delays or stoppages during play. Temps are expected to hover between the high 50s and low 70s, so it’ll be optimal quarter-zip weather.

The Augusta National course first opened 89 years ago in 1933 and has been modified many times by different architects.

Among the changes: greens have been reshaped and, on occasion, entirely re-designed, bunkers have been added, water hazards have been extended, new tee boxes have been built, hundreds of trees have been planted, and several mounds have been installed.
