| Abstract/Contents: | Discusses the changes made at the Augusta National golf course. The number 2 hole is longer and has been redesigned. The eleventh hole was raised two feet in order to prevent flooding. The goal with hole number fifteen was to remove the dips and mounds and adding trees. Number seventeen had an extra twenty-five yards added to it which then brings the Eisenhower tree back into play. All of these changes add to a whole new look for the course. |
