    The List: Viewing opportunities at Augusta National
    Photos description
    Smylie Kaufman, Zach Johnson and Kevin Streelman skip balls on No. 16 during the first practice round at Augusta National. Patrons in the stands encouraged golfers to try it by chanting, "Skip! Skip!"

To maximize your viewing opportunities, check out these places at Augusta National Golf Club if you are attending today’s practice round.

5 PRACTICE PUTTING GREEN/FIRST TEE: This is an excellent spot to see a large number of players. Most hit the practice putting green before teeing off for a practice round.

 

4 18TH GREEN: It won’t have the same vibe as Sunday afternoon, but you should be able to find a spot near the green. From behind the green, you have great views looking out at the rest of the course.

 

3 SEVENTH GREEN: This is a great place to take in a lot of action nearby. In addition to the approach shots to the well-bunkered green, you can see tee shots at Nos. 3 and 8, the green at No. 2 and the fairway at No. 17.

 

2 AMEN CORNER: The most famous stretch of holes in golf: Nos. 11, 12 and 13. Water comes into play at each hole, and the stretch got the moniker from famed writer Herbert Warren Wind for the action that occurred there in 1958.

 

1 16TH GREEN: This is the fun spot for the practice rounds. Players often try to skip a ball across the pond and get it on the green. The tradition dates back to the 1980s, and some believe two-time Masters champion Seve Ballesteros started it.
