Augusta National Golf Club, located in Augusta, Georgia, was founded by Bobby Jones and Clifford Roberts on the site of a former indigo plantation. The course was designed by Jones and Alister MacKenzie and opened for play in January 1933.
Since 1934, it has played host to the annual Masters Tournament, one of the four major championships in men’s professional golf, and the only major played each year at the same course. Every member of Augusta National receives a green sports coat with the club’s logo on the left breast.
The idea of the green jacket originated with club co-founder Clifford Roberts and many believe it is because he wanted patrons visiting during the tournament to be able to readily identify members. The 18-Hole Course opened in 1899.
