The Masters, is one of the four major championships in professional golf. Scheduled for the first full week of April, it is the first of the majors to be played each year. Unlike the other major championships, the Masters is held each year at the same location, Augusta National Golf Club, a private golf club in the city of Augusta, Georgia, USA.

The Masters is unlike any other major sporting event in the world, since in the name of tradition tickets are not available to purchase. Only patrons who are on the list receive the right to purchase four-day badges, usually being willed from one family member to another. Making them the hardest sports tickets to obtain.

This opportunity doesn't come around very often, you have the chance tonight to make someone's dream of being at the Masters a reality! In addition to scoring these coveted tickets for Wednesday, Thursday & Friday, you will receive VIP Hospitality and be personally escorted by 18 year PGA TOUR player & Golf Channel Analyst, Mark Lye.
