Augusta...behind the scenes

There is no doubt that Augusta National is one of the most amazing golf courses in the world.  Every year, without fail, the course is flawless for the Masters.

However, using Google to zoom in on the course, you can get some idea of what's really involved:

#3, Flowering Peach, is undergoing bunker work and what appears to be fairway drainage.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

#5 looks to be getting a heavy fairway topdressing, #6 is having work done on the tee, and #16 seems to be missing its green!

 Hopefully this shows the incredible amount of work that takes place annually to have the course ready when the action starts.
