Hello Friends. The Masters is a tradition unlike any other. Steeped in a rich history of golf’s elite, it is seen as THE number one golf tournament. As much as I am a fan of The Masters, they are doing themselves no favors by refusing to adapt to the current digital era. Brian Cristiano and Rob Cressy dish about why The Masters needs to get with the times. From their no cell phones, cameras, or beepers (yes, beepers) policy, to not broadcasting the entire tournament on TV.
