Have You Ever Seen A Divot At Augusta National? No? Here’s Why
- Updated: April 9, 2022
Augusta National Golf Club is as pristine as it gets. From the emerald fairways to the manicured bunkers to the lightning-quick greens, the course is essentially perfect whether you are there in person or watching it on TV.
But one thing you may overlook is the fact that you will rarely – if ever – see a divot. Wait, what? Think about it.
Joshua Kelley snapped these photos while on the grounds to show us how they do it … both on the tees and the fairways:

Had a few questions about fairway divots after my previous post in regards to plugging tee divots. Fairway divots are sanded with green sand which blend in marvelously as you can see. #themasters2018 pic.twitter.com/bBjNHI9FA9
