TAKEAWAYS
⛳️Love them or hate them, the trends speak to the bigger picture of what matters at Augusta National.
⛳️Course knowledge and experience is directly correlated to success.
⛳️A longshot winner is improbable.
⛳️Recent winning experience is significant.
⛳️Current form, especially tee-to-green is paramount.
⛳️An elite putter is not required.
⛳️It's a "bombers" paradise - Architect Bobby Jones literally designed the course to give golfers "an unrestricted feeling of being able to swing away amid a wide swath of parkland". He believed that good drives would be rewarded, not by staying out of penalty areas, but by “making the second shot simpler in proportion to the excellence of the first".
⛳️Attacking the par 5s (with aggressiveness) is a necessity.
⛳️Chipping on tight, uneven lies around the green is a predictive skill and brings out the best short-gamers.
