Snow on Augusta National

Everyone around here knows I'm a sucker for the game of golf. Kevin Bagley, from Lost Creek Country Club, sent these great photos into spotnews@kvue.com. They are from a 4-6 inch snowfall on the grounds of Augusta National. The Masters first round of competition play is April 8th.

Augusta National, just outside of Augusta, Georgia, is home to The Masters each Spring. It is usually alive with vibrant colors and is known worldwide for it's brilliant azaleas.

These pictures capture Augusta National donned in a completely different color!

Words from the maintenance worker who took the photos:

We ended up with something like 4 to 6 inches overall. About 50 days away from the
tournament and this is what the course looked like when I came in this morning.
My personal favorite picture, besides the ones of Amen Corner, is the photo of hole #4
and the one palm tree on the property. It is also interesting to see how much difference
the hydronic coils make in the soil temperatures. No snow on any of the greens
that have coils underneath them.
