[Asia Economy Reporter No Woo-rae] The 'Masters of Legends' will allow gallery admission.

Fred Ridley, chairman of Augusta National Golf Club, announced on the 13th (Korean time) that "the 85th Masters, opening on April 8 this year, plans to allow a limited number of spectators." He explained, "The COVID-19 prevention standards will not differ much from the tournament held last November," but added, "We judged that the tournament could be held in April this year with some spectators invited."

The Masters is held every April at Augusta National Golf Club in Augusta, Georgia, USA, but last year it was held without spectators in November due to COVID-19. It was the first time in 86 years since March 1934 that the Masters was held outside of April. Chairman Ridley said, "It is disappointing that we cannot invite all ticket holders," and added, "We will do our best to provide a better viewing environment in 2022 for those who cannot attend this year."

He did not disclose approximately how many spectators will be admitted. They plan to notify ticket holders within this month whether they are invited to this year's tournament. Also, the Augusta National Women's Amateur, which was not held last year, will officially open on April 3. In last year's Masters, world No. 1 Dustin Johnson (USA) won, and Im Sung-jae (23, CJ Logistics) caused a sensation by finishing as runner-up, the first Asian nationality player to do so.
