Champions Dinner features unique food, atmosphere

The gathering of Masters winners on the Tuesday night before the tournament is popularly known as the Champions Dinner.

But did you know it is formally called the Masters Club?

The tradition began in 1952 when defending champion Ben Hogan gave a dinner for all previous winners. The annual meal became a hit, and honorary memberships in the Masters Club were extended to tournament co-founders Bobby Jones and Clifford Roberts. All tournament chairmen since have been added as honorary members.

And what about the food? Haggis? Blood sausages? Anyone care for some monkey gland sauce?
