The start to The Masters has been delayed and patrons will be admitted to the first major of the calendar later than expected due to bad weather at Augusta National, organizers said.
The tournament is scheduled to tee off on Thursday when showers and storms are mainly forecast before 2 p.m. Eastern Time in Augusta. Live look of me waiting for #TheMasters to tee off.
BOOOOOOOOOO rips wet fart
"The first round will begin at 10:30 a.m. off the No. 1 tee. Updated tee times are available below. The Honorary Starters Ceremony will begin at 10:10 a.m. Patron gates will open at 9:30 a.m. #themasters" Per The Masters twitter.
The Masters had to battle a stretch of rough weather last year, and Augusta National might have to dodge an ominous forecast for its opening round on Thursday as well.
The good news? The rest of the week looks excellent, and even a delayed start on Thursday won’t be much of an issue to get the field back on track. Friday will be a touch windier than the weekend, but after Thursday, it should be mostly sunny skies, almost zero chance of rain and wind under 9 mph. On Sunday, when we’ll crown a Masters champion, it will be mostly sunny with a high of 85 degrees.
Until then, I will be doing my job I guess like a good employee.
