    Don’t sleep on Cameron Smith. Young dude, 5th last year, been playing well and a good putter.

    I root for history, T Watson in 09, so I want Rory at Augusta and Speith at PGA.

    slightly off topic. My brother is going as a 'patron'. Whats the one souvenir of the Masters you would want from the gift shop? Hat, 3/4 zip, polo?

    A few of my coworkers have gone in recent years, and the 3/4 zip is pretty nice. Not cheap, but nice.

    So the food there is a bargain and the merch is outlandish, right? Did I see $130 for a shirt? That's almost what I paid for my tux

    It'll happen after his wife sucks him dry and leaves him.

    Coffee mug.

    Clothes fade or wear out, umbrellas can break or walk away, hats...meh.

    I have mugs from the 80s that I still use.

    My one Masters souvenir was I bought a Christmas tree ornament (wife collects them) which is a replica of the clubhouse. Still going strong 20 years later, but of course it doesn't get used like a shirt.

    Visited my mother last year and she was going through some old barware; my late father had a Masters shot glass from when he attended a couple decades ago (the logo is just slightly different, font isn't as thick).

    "Mom! I had no idea we had this!"

    "We do, and you can't have it."

    "(grumble)"

    Now that I think of it I'd love to have a divot tool from there too. I already have one from Oakmont and Shinnecock so it wouldn't be totally slumming it in the drawer with ones from Rolling Stones Municipal and Foghat Hills.
