From the photo, the class looks in magnificent status, hardly a pine straw out of place, trees looking trimmed and set, and the many grandstands creating the all-time amphitheater in the sport.

Abroad from the glamour of the occasion, the photo shows some of changes to the form as suggested in the media guide, released in mid-February.

In the guide, amid the amendments listed were, for the 11th pigsty, "Masters tees moved back xv yards and to the golfer'due south left. Fairway re-contoured and several copse removed on right side." And for the 15th, "Masters tees moved dorsum 20 yards and fairway re-contoured."

The combines extra 35 yards will brand the par-4 11th even more than difficult, whilst players will now need to determine whether to go for the par-v 15th in 2, something almost 'given' in previous years.

Ladies and Gentlemen, The Masters is most hither!!!

Currently sitting as the OWGR 8th ranked player in the earth isn't practiced plenty for JT.

"To exist perfectly honest, it p****s me off where I am in the World Ranking. But it just goes to testify the level of golf that'due south being played. I clearly accept not won very many golf game tournaments in the last two years, yr and a half, at least, from other parts of my career, but I've played some pretty damn good golf and it'southward simply, if you're not winning tournaments you're getting lapped right now and that's just the style that it is."

There may have been a time where having a strong finish in virtually tournaments was plenty to go along a golfer's world ranking in the superlative three-five, merely not in today'southward PGA Bout. With the depth on Tour and the corporeality of young players winning correct away, it has become a necessity to win tournaments to maintain a top world ranking.

Thomas' terminal victory came over a year ago at the 2022 Players Championship. Despite some not bad finishes, he hasn't been able to hoist whatever trophies since that epic Dominicus at TPC Sawgrass.

"And that's a proficient thing for the game of golf game. Having Patrick Cantlay do what he did terminal yr pushes me to become better and having Collin Morikawa and Jon Rahm and Viktor Hovland play as expert every bit they are and be in contention in all the majors and win the biggest golf tournaments.

I mean, yep, selfishly and the jealous side of me wants that to be me. So information technology gets me working harder because your main goal is to have no names above you in the World Ranking and I definitely have more ahead of me than I would like."

Thomas will look to better his globe ranking this calendar week as he tees it up as one of the favorites at Copperhead this week where he will play the Valspar Title.

"But subsequently we get going, I believe many of those who aren't with us now will exist with u.s. later.

"You lot should know that nosotros are launching, and we will proceed to drive this vision forward. We volition not stop. We believe in our mission and will denote information about our first events tomorrow," Norman added.

"While we respect that some of yous may accept concerns, know that we will piece of work tirelessly with you lot to convalesce them.

"Our goal volition be to let you focus on your playing performance while benefiting from new opportunities, whenever you are gear up for them."

This bulletin surely takes a different tone than those we've seen from the LIV group before. However, after the treatment Mickelson received from the media and his fellow PGA Tour players, it's hard to envision any large names doing anything to tarnish their legacy anytime before long.
