The Butler Cabin Green Jacket Ceremony Will Look Very Different This Year

Mounds were often introduced instead of bunkers as they are more pleasing in appearance, less costly to maintain and often serve well to emphasize strategic conceptions. The course is not intended so much to punish severely the wayward shot as to reward adequately the stroke played with skill—and judgement. During the Masters tournament, with the cooperation of the weatherman, we try to keep our greens surfaces firm and the putting speed quite fast. We conceive that the ideal here is that our greens should hold a shot well-struck with backspin but should not hold an improperly played ball. BOBBY JONES
