Today's winner will receive more than a green jacket

The Masters stands alone in tournament golf because no other event provides such an elaborate array of prizes. It all starts with the green jacket, which has been awarded to the champion since 1949. The lightweight wool jacket is synonymous with winning at Augusta National Golf Club, but that’s not all the champion receives.

He also gets a sterling silver replica of the Masters Trophy (which depicts the clubhouse) and a gold medal.

Beginning in 1954, the Masters started awarding crystal for special feats during the tournament.

The most common way to walk away with a trophy embossed with the Masters logo is to make an eagle. Any player in the field is eligible.

From 1954-62, anyone making an eagle received a crystal highball glass. From 1963-2011, a pair of crystal goblets was awarded. Now, a pair of crystal highball glasses goes to those who card an eagle.
