Augusta National Golf Club course breakdown

Now that we know the layout of the golf course, what else makes Augusta National Golf Club a challenge?

The golf course is exacting. There are lots of ways to hit the fairway, but there are better approach angles on practically every hole for the bold player

The putting surfaces are pretty big, but they are quick. Players must be able to negotiate the greens while avoiding three putts.

It's always good to stay below the hole at Augusta National, and it's important to score well on all four par 5s.
